1976 Pontiac Trans Am 400 4 speed. This car is mostly disassembled by the previous owner who wanted to change the color back to the original black. The engine is a period correct Pontiac 400 and the 4 speed transmission is the numbers matching original Borg Warner Super T10. The transmission was totally professionally rebuilt. All body panels are rust and repair free. The floor pans,trunk pan and frame rails are all original and rust free.The front inner fender wells again are rust free. This T/A was originally black but is now firethorn red, the paint was excellent but from moving and being in storage it does have some scratches. The original honeycomb wheels are in excellent condition and included is a brand new set of 4 BFG TA radials. Many new and excellent used parts are included with this car. A brand new set of Phoenix T/A decals is also included along with new speakers, new carpet, sound deadener and much more. The 400 engine spins freely but will need to be partially reassembled. A period correct intake and 4 speed 1976 carburetor are also inlcuded. The shaker is nice and a correct air cleaner with ALL ducting in excellent condition are all also included. The dash,gauges,bezel are all in excellent condition and still installed, and all wiring is intact and in great shape. A rebuilt tilt steering column with T/A steering wheel is also included. The dash does not have any cracks whatsoever. The standard front and rear seats are nice, but show a bit of wear from being in storage. The glass is all still installed and in excellent condition. The car does have the decor trim package which also is in great shape. The flywheel,clutch and bellhousing are also in very nice shape. All the interior plastic and door panels are excellent. The front sub frame was gone over and repainted a few years ago. The only body panel that may need a minor repair is the hood from some rust starting on one edge from being in storage. The quarter panels fenders, inner and outer wheel houses, and rocker panels are all original and again rust-free. There is no rust underneath this car!!! I believe it to have the original posi traction rear end with T/A sway bar. The trunk lid is also excellent but has stripes, paint will be included to repaint the entire trunk lid. All wheel spoilers are also included and still in very nice original condition. Very little would need to be purchased to finish this excellent rust free project car. You would have a very very hard time finding a 76 T/A this clean...it is very impressive to see just how clean and rust free this car is, even the rear body panel under the rear bumper is surpisingly rust free!!!! Most if not all of the missing pieces have been purchased, although you may still need to buy a couple to professionally complete this project. This is a non a/c car with a standard black interior but any options could be added during the restoration. The front bumper is very nice but does have some paint cracks. The fenders are rust free originals with air extractors. The doors are also rust free originals and still installed. The radiator support is also solid and fan shroud is not cracked with radiator included. The car shows 30,000 some miles on the odometer which I would have no problem believing, however the clean title came back with a PA EXEMPT due to the age of this classic car. If you are looking for a complete RUST-free Trans Am to put back together this is it!!! These rare 4 speed 400 Trans Ams are getting very hard to find and increasing in value rapidly, so now may be your last chance to own one that doesn't need floor pans, frame rails,rockers, ETC. Just look around and see what this car would be worth put back together. This is one very clean example of a rare T/A, that doesn't need a whole lot of work to be a very nice show car!!!

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
GM recalling 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported
Thu, 13 Feb 2014General 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.
GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.
