1975 Pontiac Firebird Formula 400-4 speed
**************LOW RESERVE*********************

Original buccaneer red Formula 400 4-speed with the original engine.This car feels like it's on rails at 70 miles per hour. Drives straight and handles nice. The interior has new seat covers, carpet and console. It needs a headliner and a dash or dash cover. The body looks nice but up close it has some flaws. It has some small cracks in the paint here and there that aren't very noticeable unless you're up close. It has had new quarters put on and one quarter has a crack in the paint at the sail panel. Some filler on the bottom of the TA front fenders and rocker moldings. It has a patch in the trunk pan but the floor and frame rails appear to be solid. The front windshield has a scratch from the windshield wipers but the rest of the glass is nice.  
The odometer reads 34,000 but not sure of the actual mileage. It's not perfect but it's a nice car with many original parts. This is a great cruise night car, local car show or a great candidate for a show quality restoration.  Tires and brakes are good and the exhaust sounds great. Looks really nice and gets many thumbs up driving down the road.  Selling with a low reserve. I've tried to describe the car the best I can but please ask any questions before bidding. No warranties and sold as is. You're welcome to view the vehicle before bidding as well. Full payment due within 5 days of end of auction. I accept cash or bank check but the check has to clear the bank before car and tittle are released. Car is available for pick up or I can help you set up shipping. Thanks for your interest in my Firebird Formula 400 4-speed.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

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.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
