trans is a tko600 with the .64 5th gear, steel flywheel, dennys driveshaft, hydraulic throwout bearing, ram clutch.

engine is a .035 400(it's NOT a 557 block) with 87cc edelbrock heads 310cfm, JE pistons(real JE), eagle rods, decked to -.005, balanced, pete jackson gear drive, comp cams solid roller, harlan sharp 1.65 roller rockers, performer rpm manifold, 825 mighty demon, 8qt milodon oil pan, tomahawk valley pan, cast valve covers, holley electric fuel pump, mallory unlit ignition system, hedman hustler headers, 2.5" x pipe exhaust with pypes violator mufflers and mandrel bent tail pipes, mini starter.

just about everything was rebuilt at one time or another during my 13yrs of ownership. somethings multiple times. antique plated and road legal in PA.

the trunk floor is rusted with holes, but is still mostly solid, one spot on lower left quarter panel that has a small hole rusted through, and the panel between the rear window and trunk lid has a couple small holes in it that i put jb weld on when i got it. i welded patch panels in a couple spots in the floorboards, all the loose undercoating was scrapped off and repainted with por15. once the other body parts i have are installed the car will be pretty straight and solid except for the trunk floor. i have the rocker panel trim, the right side will need to be straightened at the very front few inches. car needs weather stripping and window felts, drivers door hinge needs rebuilt/replaced, car wheel hops pretty bad if you dump the clutch and i'm tired of getting under it to adjust the control arms. motor starts easily but battery will die after a couple days of sitting, not sure if it's a bad battery(it's not very old though), draw on it from somewhere, or not charging good? no choke on carb, pump the gas 4 times and turn the key and it'll fire right up, after a minute or so it'll idle on it's own at 7-800 rpms. smokes, not sure if it's a bad pcv, rings never seated, or valve stem seals? only have 700 or so miles on it, leaks from rear pan gasket or real main viton seal, and front crank seal. i should've changed the crank seal when i last swapped the cam but figured it'd be ok. i was wrong. 

car is a 75 but i preferred the 74 grills, have the original grills for it. you're welcome to come check it out if you're local. i know i'm asking a lot for a pretty undesirable car but i have way more(--->WAY MORE<---) into it than what it's listed at. also have a stack of receipts. i will upload more pics later.

1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction

Mon, 01 Aug 2011

For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.

GM recalling 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

General Motors has announced that it will be recalling 778,562 compact cars after six people were killed in accidents, partially due to the airbags' failure to deploy. An issue with the ignition switch is causing the airbag issues, as well as causing the engine and other components to shut off without warning. The recall covers the 2005 to 2007 model year Chevrolet Cobalt and 2007 Pontiac G5. (Note that the Cobalt pictured above is a 2009 model.)
According to a report from Automotive News, a number of factors can cause the ignition to switch out of the run position, including weights on the key ring, rough or bumpy roads or other "jarring" events. Any of these situations could lead to some vehicle components not functioning properly.
There have been five fatal front-impact crashes that took the lives of six people, although as a GM spokesman noted, all five of the crashes happened off road and at high speed. In each of these cases, though, the lack of airbags wasn't the only lethal factor - alcohol and failure to wear a seat belt also played a role. Outside of the fatal accidents, there have been 17 other crashes where airbags didn't deploy. It's unclear if any of these crashes were caused by the engine shutting off.
