=> 1999 Pontiac Grand Am For Pick-up :) on 2040-cars
Glasco, New York, United States
|
Hello! For sale is a silver 1999 Pontiac Grand Am SE sedan. I have owned this car for about 7 years with no issues until a few months ago. Some information you'll want to know:
# The battery is only about 2 years old, but the car hasn't been started daily since I took it off of the road. Life happens! It needs at least a jump, or at most a new battery to get running again. If not, you'll have to tow it...sorry :( # When it is up and running, the cabin gets VERY loud - deafening. Either a muffler or maybe something exhaust resonator related? I don't know, I'm not a car guy...but it does sound awful. This is why I took it off the road. # The windshield is cracked along the bottom. The hood latch broke, and the hood came up while I was driving and smacked the windshield. Windshield has some cracks but it doesn't leak, and it withstood quite a few inches of heavy ice and snow accumulation this winter with no problems. The hood is currently held in place by bungee cables. # Since the battery is currently dead, I can't see the electronic odometer. It's definitely in the ballpark of about 200,000 miles though, either just barely before or just after. I'll be the first to admit that the car isn't pretty, but it was my baby for a long time. The hood is jacked up, the front bumper is cracked good, the front of it is straight-up ugly. If you're concerned, a new hood and a Le Bra will make it look worlds better than it does now. All or most of its service receipts are in the glove compartment, it always had regular oil changes and the tires weren't even a year old when I took it off the road. They still have plenty of tread! The car is very clean on the inside and out and has barely any rust. No funny smells in the cabin, upholstery looks great, and it even comes with some faux leather seat covers. Once the muffler/exhaust issue is fixed, it will be the comfortable, powerful ride I always knew it to be. I hope someone will enjoy this car as much as I have :) Looking for only about $800, to cover a successful listing fee on eBay and taking into account the age, mileage, and general ugliness of the car. Also, I know it is inconvenient to have to tow it away or get a new battery for it if you have to. |

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes
Mon, 01 Oct 2012The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.
CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero
Fri, 26 Oct 2012At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."
