Up for auction is a wrecked, rolling shell of a 1969 Lemans 2 door hardtop. Was a floor shift automatic with buckets and console.This car is mostly parted out as you can see in the pictures. I was going to scrap it but when I pulled the carpet and saw the floors I thought someone might be able to use them, would be a shame to scrap it. The only non-sheet metal parts left are the gas tank, driveshaft, windshield, rear window and exhaust. The exhaust consists of dual straight pipes with cherry bomb mufflers. Sounded great before I pulled the engine. The driver side tail pipe is bent from the accident. The windshield and rear window glass is good, no cracks and is tinted.  No other glass is included. Both doors are already sold. The chassis is complete and is 4 wheel drum. The frame is bent in the rear from the accident but is very solid. It could probably be fixed fairly easily. The rear is open, 10 bolt. I don't know the ratio. I looked for the markings on the tubes and didn't see any. The floors are rock solid, all original. The rusted places seen in the pictures are surface rust, no weak places that I could see. The trunk floor and inner/outer rear wheel wells are very nice as well except where the trunk pan is bent from the rear ender. There is one patched place.[about 4"X4"] on the passenger side toe board [shown in the last picture]. That is the only patch I can see on any of the floors, passenger area or trunk. These floors are original, never painted [other than factory overspray], as they were from the factory so there is nothing covered up. What you see is what you get. As you can see the trunk lid and driver's rear quarter are toast. The passenger rear quarter looks pretty straight but does have some bondo in it. The front fenders are useable but also have bondo where the hood meets them and at the bottom, where they all rust. The hood is rusted in the underside framing near the windshield and has holes drilled from hood pins. The area under the windshield at the cowl vents unfortunately has the usual rust-thru [2nd to last pict.].  I am starting the auction at $550 which is what I figure I can get if I continue to piece it out and scrap the body. What you see in the pictures is what you get.  No parts will be taken off the car while the auction is running. This car rolls easily but has no steering and no brakes. The title is clear and open, VIN plate and body tag are in place. Any questions, please ask. I can take more pictures of any areas of concern, just let me know. Buyer to pay in full within 5 days of auction ending. $250 deposit within 24 hours of auction ending. Thanks for looking, Bill

Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

NASCAR 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.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
