1984 Pontiac Trans Am. Bought new at Blount Pontiac in Gainesville, Florida by a man in his early 30's. I have the ORIGINAL title showing where he bought the car on March 2nd 1984. 5.0 liter (305 cubic inch) V8 engine with the 700R4 automatic overdrive transmission, four wheel disc brakes. What is cool about this particular car, is the fact that it is a top of the line Trans Am, but it has very few options.. It has manual windows, locks, seats, mirrors, no rear window defogger etc. The radio is AM/FM only, not even a cassette player. The original spare tire and jack are still stored in their original location.

Since I have owned it, I bought four new Mastercraft MC-440 215/65R15 tires ($300), only had three mounted, one is in my shed, a brand new Optima Yellow Top Dual Terminal battery ($200), Car has had the spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, distributor rotor, air filter, fuel filter, and wiper blades replaced. I drove it from my home in Darien, Georgia to Brunswick and back three times before the engine started smoking and knocking on the bottom end. It has been parked ever since (about ten days ago). I need a car that will get me back and forth to my new job about an hour away from my home, and I won't have the time to work on this car anymore.

I have always loved the looks of these cars, ever since I was a young boy. My Sisters boyfriend had one brand new and I got to ride in it, and it was a very memorable experience for me. And there was always KITT from the TV series Knight Rider...

Here are a few cool things about the '84 T/A:

*It is one of the most aerodynamic Trans Am's ever built. The 1983 Daytona 500 Edition (Same body with same ground effects) had a coefficient of drag of only .029!! The only notable difference between that car, and this one are the "bowling ball" hubcaps on the wheels. This car is more aerodynamic than the newer (1993 and up) cars that despite having a more aggressively raked windshield, also had a ton more frontal area.

*This particular car, with its short list of options weighs only 3262 lbs, according to the information on the title.

*1984 was the last year for the Finned Type taillights. They were only used from 1982-1984, and the Trans Am models were dark tinted.

*Car has functional cold air intake system. Under full throttle, a solenoid opens a flap at the rear of the hoods cowl to allow cooler air to get to the intake.

*No t-tops = less squeaks, rattles, and wet bumpkis first thing in the morning.

*Instrument panel backlighting is red, just like the 1983 Daytona 500 Trans Am was, and later became a Pontiac trademark.

I have removed the air conditioning compressor, condenser, hoses, and the smog pump. I kept those pieces should the next owner decide to use them. My dream was to build a light, nimble car that could get 25 mpg +, handle like a Porsche, and run like a Cheetah on cocaine, but it is just not the right time for that to happen. (Hawks Third Gen makes LS engine conversion parts, and also have everything necessary to convert it to a 6-speed, just sayin').

All lights work (dome light bulb is MIA, on the list of things to get before the engine started sounding like Cummins Diesel). Steering was tight and smooth. Car could use shocks and struts, as well as hood and hatch struts. There are only 150 miles on the three tires I have put on the car!

Car is located in the beautiful Coastal Georgia town of Darien (about one hour south of Savannah). Car can be stored here for up to 90 days, unless other arrangements have been made with me first. I will not be responsible for damages to the car during that time (lots of tall trees here, gets windy sometimes). Deposit of $250 due within 48 hours of auctions end. Balance to be paid within one week (seven days) of the auctions end. If you don't have the cash, please don't place the bid.

Thank you for looking at my auction, and best of luck!

1969 Pontiac GTO Judge vs. 2006 GTO, which Goat gets your vote?

Mon, 08 Sep 2014

The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own.
Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel.
The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.

Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

If you're an automotive engineer being tormented by an immortal being made of fire, then wouldn't you think it best to have a custom coupe called the FireBreather for your getaway car? That's the FireBreather in the image above, adorned by the red wings that once fronted the Pontiac Firebird, running away from a black cloud of evil in a trailer for the movie Jinn.
The Jinn is eternal evil, always waiting for the chance to make things float across rooms before going on homicidal urban rampages. The FireBreather is a Gen-V Chevrolet Camaro - from the V6 to the ZL1 - that's been through Classic Design Concepts' extensive list of exterior and interior modifications, including entirely new front and rear fascias and side skirts, sway bars and springs, Pirelli P Zeroes and an available Edelbrock supercharger.
The movie - FireBreathing chase scenes and all - was shot in Monroe, Michigan. You can watch the trailer below, but since the FireBreather only get a couple of seconds on screen, you can find out more about it on Street Legal TV and its official site.

Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way

Tue, 21 Feb 2012

There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.
