1980 trans am black with tan interior. car was recently restored by professional body and paint tech.this car was completely rust free with its original paint, before the restoration.over all it was a very nice car to start with. the paint was dark blue met. but i decided to change it to black.the blue just didn't look right with the gold bird. so now its black and gold. i was going for the special edition look. i didn't put the pin stripes on but i do have them and will put them on if the buyer wants.before i got the car the engine and transmission where rebuilt. when the motor was rebuilt they disconnected the a.c. and the cruse control. i don't know why. all the front end parts where replaced, tie rods, ball joints, sway bar bushings,upper and lower control arms,springs,shocks, and the entire exhaust system, tires, rims,the head liner and carpet. it does need a alinement and the carpet has a few stains on it that could be covered up with a new pair of floor mats. it has only a couple thousand miles put on it since all that work was done. when i got the car i took all the interior parts out and had them dyed at a upholstery shop. the interior looks amazing. its the nicest trans am interior i have ever seen.the tan goes very well with the black.i did all the body and paint work myself at my body shop. i have been working in body shop for the last 20 years. the body only had small dings down both sides and every panel needed to be realigned. i took all the body panels off and painted inside of everything then put everything back together, lined it all up and got everything to open and close the way it should, then painted the outside. the body is straight as arrow and the paint laid down perfect. no runs or dry spots anywhere looks fantastic. none of the dark blue is to be found anywhere. i put all new graphics on it and all new seals. t-top,doors, trunk, and hood seals. new hood insulation and the under side of the hood was painted flat black. i put new grills,front emblem and gas door on it. i put a few hundred miles on it and realized it was running with a high idle and was under powered. my friend who owns a local muffler man, rebuilt the carb. put new plug wires in and fixed a exhaust leak. since then the car has come alive. the turbo is working great and the carb. is tuned to perfection. the car is quiet and purrs like a kitten. it has excellent throttle response and the turbo kicks you back in the seat. it has a really cool sound too. it is such a great running car. the turo light work the way they should. i also removed the volts gauge and installed a turbo gauge in its place.it fits in nice and looks factory.all the other gauges work great. it has a newer c.d. player and all four speakers. it sounds great and everything is mounted where it should be and looks factory.i listed this car before just to test the waters and lowered the reserve to a selling price.this is a very nice car priced to sell. please don't bid on this car unless you plan on buying it. i don't have time for games. if you want more pictures just email me your email address and i can send you pictures.if you have questions you can email me your phone number and i will call you. please read the entire description before emailing me. thanks

How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine 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.
David Hasselhoff's own KITT replica up for auction
Tue, 08 Apr 2014Depending on when and where you grew up, the name David Hasselhoff likely conjures up images of Knight Rider, Baywatch, pop singer, or possibly a washed-up TV actor, but one thing that can never be taken away from The Hoff is his connection to one of the greatest automotive icons in pop culture. The Knight Industries Two Thousand, usually shortened to simply KITT, was the real star of Knight Rider for many fans. Based on a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, the car combined snarky quips for comedy relief and stunts to provide much of the show's actions. Now, Julien's Auctions is selling Hasselhoff's own replica as part of a larger sale of the actor's personal memorabilia collection.
This recreation is based on a 1986 Firebird and comes with all of the tech on the inside that now seems hilariously outdated, like the yoke steering wheel and plethora of buttons. The interior also thoughtfully includes a voice box with over 4,000 sound clips from the show. With a 5.0-liter V8 and an automatic transmission, performance is likely adequate and period correct. According to the listing, this car was created by fans and given to the Hoff. Sadly, the replica doesn't convert to Super Pursuit Mode like KITT could in later seasons, and we most associate KITT with conventional front-hinged doors to go with the power t-tops and ejector seats.
Bidding currently sits $27,500 with eight bids, since starting at $15,000. Julien's predicts it will sell for between $30,000 and $50,000. If there is some nostalgia for KITT in your heart, there is still plenty of time to bid.
NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys
Mon, 10 Jun 2013According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.
