Up for sale is my 1974 Pontiac Firebird Formula 350. The car was originally a 350 2bbl 3 speed manual car. It now has a brand new 400 4bbl connected to a 4-speed Muncie transmission with a Hurst shifter. The car was painted a little more than 2 years ago and the paint is in good condition but is starting to show a few blemishes. The car is very solid and straight and has very little rust. The interior of the car was recently redone minus the dash. The car has an aftermarket exhaust system with flow-thru style mufflers, so it is quite loud and mean. The 400 has 340 miles on it currently and the clutch was recently inspected and the throwout bearing replaced. It has front disk brakes and rear drums. 

The engine was built by S&J engines in Spokane. It is a 1974 400 pontiac containing:
A brand new forged steel crank
Elgin 980P Performance camshaft (.480 intake lift)
New Elgin lifters
All new new valves, springs, and rocker arms
Edelbrock Performer intake
Edelbrock Performer 625 cfm carburetor with electric choke
Edelbrock valve covers and air cleaner
Car starts right up even on this cold rainy weekend and runs strong
Engine came with a 7-year or 100,000 mile warranty, but I am not sure if that is transferable. 

The body of the car is very solid and only has rust on the bottom of the driver side fender and small patch in the rear wheel well. The car just had new Radial TA tires put on 700 miles ago. It also retains its original rubber bumpers which are in the best shape that I have seen on any 1974 F-body. The windshield has been cracked and will need to be replaced. 

The interior of the car has the reupholstered original pontiac highback seats, a new kenwood stereo with kicker speakers, a wood GT Grant steering wheel with tilt wheel, a tachometer strapped to the steering column and new gauges (except for the gas gauge which is finicky). The headliner and door skins were recently redone and look really nice. 

The transmission is a 4-speeed muncie out of a 1968 pontiac firebird. It has a 10.4 inch clutch which works real well. 

Buyer is responsible for shipping but I will help in whatever ways I can. And the car will be no problem to load onto a trailer and I would be more than willing to do this free of charge. 

Overall its a very nice car and I am sure it will go quickly. Feel free to email or text me at any time of the day with any questions at carmail132@yahoo.com or 858-750-0170

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile

Sun, 29 Apr 2012

Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am

Wed, 15 May 2013

When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later

Fri, 12 Sep 2014



Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
