Carlyle, Illinois, United States

 The good:   1994 Prix with a 1990 Prix STE factory intercooled turbo 3.1 engine (with top gun power chip), and transmission. Will do 1/8 mile in 9.12 sec. fairly new tires with factory honey cone rims, sun roof, and a navigator (also out of a 1990 STE). Boost gauge, runs and shifts fine.I had the engine,wiring harness PCM and transmission installed 8 yrs. ago and been driving as my main vehicle,and is fun to drive because of turbo boost effect.Gas mileage average 24, highway 32.  The not so good:   AC does not work has leak, no anti-lock brakes,has been removed to fit turbo. has regular vacuum booster brakes. hood has dents, driver door also has dent, clear coat coming off on top of car the spoiler, and fender flairs. Has a crack in the dash.   Head liner falling,passenger sun visor has fabric hole. ,Doesn't use oil but if idling, smokes out of tailpipe. Has always did this since turbo was replaced eight yrs ago, radio works but power antenna wont go down,and other small items .Has rust problems by gas tank filler door,under door seals. But the worst  is the rear swing arm mounting brackets.They are rusted as you can see in pictures, I'm still driving this car myself but I'm saying this rust area could makes this unsafe to drive. Can this be fixed? Maybe.Its a shame Pontiac didn't do a better job in this area for rust protection. .Can show more pictures if needed.Buyer will be responsible for shipping.I am not responsible for any accidents.Buyer will sign a waiver.

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."

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

If you're an automotive engineer being tormented by an immortal being made of fire, then wouldn't you think it best to have a custom coupe called the FireBreather for your getaway car? That's the FireBreather in the image above, adorned by the red wings that once fronted the Pontiac Firebird, running away from a black cloud of evil in a trailer for the movie Jinn.
The Jinn is eternal evil, always waiting for the chance to make things float across rooms before going on homicidal urban rampages. The FireBreather is a Gen-V Chevrolet Camaro - from the V6 to the ZL1 - that's been through Classic Design Concepts' extensive list of exterior and interior modifications, including entirely new front and rear fascias and side skirts, sway bars and springs, Pirelli P Zeroes and an available Edelbrock supercharger.
The movie - FireBreathing chase scenes and all - was shot in Monroe, Michigan. You can watch the trailer below, but since the FireBreather only get a couple of seconds on screen, you can find out more about it on Street Legal TV and its official site.
