Up for sale is my 1979 Trans Am, 10th Anniversary 4 Speed! I owned this car for 5 years. I'm the third owner. The gentleman who owned it before me had it for over 20 years. The first 120,000 miles were put on it in the first 7 years of its life. I have only put about 4000 miles on it. Currently the original 400 block is not in the car, but WILL be included in the sale. Its located in Dayton and I'll make the arrangements to have the block brought to Little Rock, unless otherwise specified by the winning bidder. The original block is bored 60 over, has new pistons and cam that are all included. The top end was put on the 455 thats in the car now. Newly rebuilt 455 with less than 1500 miles on it. I just drove the car over 600 miles in one day with zero issues! I have the original buildsheet that was found behind the rear passenger seat. Pontiac 455 60 over, Butler Performance Rods, Crank, and Pistons. Fresh uncut 6X-4 heads, Ram III Intake, Q-Jet rebuilt by Cliff's High Performance, RARE OS Exhaust Manifolds, PYPES X Pipe and RARE Spintech mufflers. Heads and q-jet off original motor. I do not have the original intake or manifolds, but they are very easy to come by. I have all the A/C components. New Parts: Brake lines, calipers and pads, master cylinder, parking brake cable, tie rods, center link, ball joints, front sway bar bushings, control arm bushings, front springs (Eibach lowering), all shocks (Monroe Sensa-Trac), aluminum radiator, distributor, plug wires. The LEDs on the 8 track dont work but the radio and all its functions work, the passenger side power door lock doesn't work, the headliner will need replaced. Overall this car is in good shape. Doors close nicely, T-Tops are in good shape. It was repainted about 10 years ago with new graphics. The hood bird is in great shape. This is not a show car but with very little work could be. Paint has chips. I would rate the paint/body 7 out of 10. Please feel free to call for more details. Brian (830) 765-4091

This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels
Sat, 14 Dec 2013We like cars, and we like art. Naturally, Chris Labrooy's Auto Aerobics series - computer-generated images of some seriously contorted 1968 Pontiac Bonnevilles floating in mid-air - instantly clicked with us. If the Pontiacs weren't floating or hollow, we could be fooled into believing the image is real. But where's the fun in that?
Check out the gallery we included of Labrooy's Bonneville art, and feel free too head over to his website for some Formula One humor.
GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected
Tue, 20 May 2014General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:
1,339,355 - Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia models from the 2009 to 2014 model years; Saturn Outlook models from the 2009 to 2010 model years
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.
