Land O' Lakes, Florida, United States

Here for sale is a rare and very desirable 1977 Trans AM Bandit Edition with the Y82 Special edition package also with the W72 6.6 400 CID engine. The W72 was the best performance option engine available with 200 HP verses 180 HP. I have the PHS Deluxe Package including the window sticker. This was an high option car, upon viewing the window sticker you can see all the extra options. This is one of 3 Trans AMs that I own the other 2 being a 1973 Brewster Green 455 SD 4 speed and a 1974 Admiralty Blue 455 SD automatic Trans AM. If this car does not sell I am going to restore it this summer. I own a restoration shop and I bought this car to restore and sell , but I have 2 other cars ahead of it and just sold my shop and I'm in the middle of building a new shop and have to put this car in storage I would like to see it go to a good home. The body is very solid and the dash and interior are all original. Dash being perfect along with the rear seats and front buckets would have to be recovered along with carpet and headliner. The door panels and rear panels are in very nice condition. All 4 fender flares and front spoiler will need to be replaced as I do not have them. The floors are very nice however sections of the front tow boards will need sections replaced and the trunk is in excellent condition with the exception of one small spot shown in the photos. All areas that need to be observed are in the photos there are 3 small bubbles in the paint 1 on the left quarter and the other 2 on the left door all are very small and is an easy fix . Ebay only allows 24 pictures however I have over 140 photos that can be emailed at the viewers request. I own a lift and took some detailed pictures of all  areas . All in all it's one of the cleanest 1977 T Top cars I have seen in a long time. It's not a total rusted out piece of junk. The engine is a 1977 date code correct W72 499 CI. That is correct in every way but not numbers matching. The engine is new from top to bottom. I drove it a total of 15 miles to break it in and it runs perfect. It has an after market cam that gives it a little rumble. It has brand new after market 2 1/2 inch exhaust system with stainless tips. New shocks and the front end is completely rebuilt with urethane bushings. This car drives very well. Power locks are not working. These cars in  restored condition are selling in the $60,000 to $70,000 range. This is a nice car that can be restored to a nice driver or complete nut and bolt restoration. These cars don't come along in this condition very often. Here is a great opportunity for someone to purchase this desirable model in unrestored condition. Should you have any questions upon viewing the photos please contact me by phone as my time on the computer is limited. I also reserve the right to end this auction at any time as I have it listed locally. A $500.00 deposit is due at auctions end and paid in full 7 days after auctions end. Happy Bidding Jimmy (813) 393-8705.

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes

Mon, 01 Oct 2012

The 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.

How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
