 You are bidding on a 1979 10th Anniversary Pontiac Trans Am.  This is a solid car which would be an excellent restoration candidate or even a daily driver but it is a 34 year old car.  I'm selling because I don't have the time or money to restore the car like I wanted to.  Car runs great and I would have full confidence in driving the car coast to coast.  Odometer says 80k but no way to verify if it's rolled around.  The 10th anniversary had every option available that year.  Car has the turbo wheels and mirrored t-tops.  Also has the original t-top bags, floor mats and space saver tire.  I have the build sheet and owners manual also.

Used condition.  Paint looks to be original and it is in need of a paint job because it is faded and flaking in some spots and some scratches.  Minor surface rust on roof. Center console armrest is cracked. Seams popped on driver and rear seats.  I talked with a local upholsterer and he said it should be a minor fix.  Some wear on the mirrored t-tops.  8 track worked last time I used it but that was about 4 years ago and don't have a tape to check, radio works great.  Air Conditioning works but needs charged, probably has a leak.  I know it sounds like a lot but it is 34 years old and I will do my best to show any flaws with the car.   If you would like more pictures or info on something specific please feel free to ask.   I encourage you to have the vehicle inspected.

Inspections will be at buyer's expense and by appointment.  I will do my best to accommodate and make the vehicle available for inspection.

Local pickup or shipping is buyer's responsibility and expense. 

Car is sold AS IS!    No warranty.  No returns or refunds so please ask any questions you may have before you bid.  Seller has the right to cancel bids from bidders with zero or negative feedback.

A non-refundable deposit of $500.00 (USD) is required from winning bidder within 48 hours after bidding/auction has ended. The remainder of balance is due within 7 days of auction ending.  Vehicle will not be released until full payment has been received and cleared from my bank.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, 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.

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.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
