Up for bid is my 1978 TA that I have had for 10 years. Headquaters (wife) is tired of parking her new car outside so something has to go. I bought the car from a builder in Arizona and he does nothing but Trans Ams and does them well. This car is a SE clone but he did not miss a thing.. I think the car was originally Gold but you would never know it. All the proper SE emblems are there .....SE stripes we redone about a year ago...visually its the real deal. I have had low mileage collectable cars over the years but was never comfortable driving them...this one I made my own and built it to drive and from the pics you can see .I drive it to shows....Crusin The Coast several times...I use it. Paint is good ...not show car perfect but a very nice driver...about a 7.5-8 out of 10. I added the Year One fiberglass nose andYear One flush mount fiberglass fender flares ...they fit perfect and look great. Added LED tailights which are very cool and very bright. The wheels were redone a few years back and are powdercoated. INTERIOR is mostly stock....I added Recaro seats because I am 6 ft 5 and wanted my seat to recline...very comfortable... AM FM CD USB and all that stuff in the Radio...amp and 6x9's in the rear. ENGINE AND TRANNY...here is where it gets fun...455 ci...30 over.....Kaufman (KRE) aluminum high ports heads...full hydrolic roller motor...no expense spared...FAST EFI system....what a difference in the way it drives with the EFI . Some of the motor pics show the car with Edelbrock heads and a Victor intake...when I went to the FAST EFI system I changed heads and intake and it made more power.. DYNO at 510 hp and 575 tq.... made 575 at like 3k ..have dyno sheet just have not looked at it latley. The Super T 10 4spd is new...motor and tranny have about 3000 miles on them.It had a Rodney REd alum radiator with 2 elec fans.. I am sure I am forgetting something and just put the add together with pics i had laying around so if you want something else or have a question please ask....check my feedback and bid with confidence...GOOD LUCK

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
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.
2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
