1979 Pontiac Firebird Espirit Redbird Edition on 2040-cars
Allentown, Pennsylvania, United States
This is a TRUE 1979 Firebird Espirit RedBird (See VIN). Please know what a redbird is before you inquire about this specific car. It is not a Trans Am, Formula or BaseFirebird. It does not have the eagle on the hood. Paint is newer (few years) and interior is almost perfect. The odeometer reads 32,000 miles however the title states TMU (true mileage unknown) due to age. Thus I have no idea how many miles are truly on the car. I was the told the drivetrain is original and has the 301 2 barrel engine. Metal, trim, etc are all good and very solid body with no known rust. Very Nice but if you are going to look down the side of the car it is not perfect..there are some minor imperfections. The car is special in that everything is there and not ripped out like so many of these 2nd generation cars had done. I had to spend roughly 2K after purchasing to fix some issues. It is currently under a classic car insurance policy with agreed value of 9,000.00 The PA inspection and emissions are good until 6/2014. The car has a new exhaust system, weather stripping, tires and many other recent suspension items. Interior is a 9.5 out of 10. (very small) crack on dash. That is about it. rug, headliner, seats, console, gauges, etc. all 9.5 out of 10. Please email me with more questions or send your phone # and I can call you to discuss. This car was supposed to ship west with me during my job relo in December but the winter has been to brutal to trailer it so it is still located in Allentown, Pa. Final attempt at listing now that the weather is nice in NorthEast. No trades and I will not take $5,000 for the car. You will not find a car like this, what the repairs in it and looks for my asking price. **NOTE** Please note you must come see the car (in Person) and go to a local notary to do all paperwork. No exceptions or shipping. Please do not ask for a picture of every square inch of the car. Come see it for yourself. The pictures below will show you it is exceptionally clean. |

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys
Mon, 10 Jun 2013According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.
Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series
Mon, 10 Mar 2014NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.
Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally
Fri, 13 Jun 2014The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.
