1989 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Gta on 2040-cars
Franklinville, New Jersey, United States
|
I looked long and hard to find this GTA. Its a very rare 5 speed car. Pontiac only made a little over 300 5 speed firebirds in total for 1989. There is no record of how many were GTA 5 speeds. It's black with beachwood tan interior and T-Tops. Originally a 5.0 305ci 5 speed car with 3:45 heavy duty 9 bolt rear. Its has the oil cooler and the N10 dual converter option. The 5.0 305 was tired so it was the perfect time for a 5.7 350 l98 motor swap. It was pro rebuilt and bored 30 over to 355. It was properly converted with new GM 350 tpi prom, new 350 tpi 22lb injectors, all sensors were replaced along with complete tune up. Runs awesome with plenty of power. Has a new clutch, starter, and waterpump at time of motor replacement. Just over 2k miles on motor. New GR2 shocks and struts. New brakes. The wheels were sent to Keystone to be restored. They are beautifully polished with correct gold paint, and clear coated. Tires are new BFG g force sports with just 2k miles 245/50 up front and 255/50 in back. There are a few minor dings, and there are no accidents. Paint is 2.5 years old and looks great. Id give it a 7 out of 10 its not a 10k paint job, but very nice.. The rear hatch pull down motor assembly was rebuilt with all new motor and parts. The headlight motors are rebuilt. Head lights are upgrade to silver star including the fog lights. The interior is very nice for being 25 plus years old. There are no tears in the seats. The dash is not cracked. The headliner is the only thing that needs to be replaced. To be really nice I would do carpet, headliner, sail panel/speaker covers. The steering wheels is needs to be recovered, but it has a nice cover on it. The original stereo is gone. There is a Alpine head unit and I recently replaced the back speakers with pioneer 6x9s. I have the front maching pioneer 4x6 speekers that will go with the car. The power antena stays up due to the alpine head unit. I think. I have some things that go with the car. New door seals, outer window seals, new GTA side emblems, new upgrade steering shaft. If I find more stuf Ill add it later. I did have BMR subframe connectors installed and a front end wonder bar. This is a must for a third gen and it made a big difference. Also there is a magnaflow stainless catback exhaust that sounds very nice and deep. Its awesome with the 5 speed. The original owner died and the car was sold at his estate sale to the guy I bought from. He never titled the car. I bought the car from him and went to register it in nj and they wouldnt except the title and signed executor of estate papers. So he had to register the car and then give me the new title. So Im the third owner of the car. Im only saying this so you know the history of owners. There is nothing wrong with the title its clean and clear. Your welcome to check the Vin. This is a really nice car that you can take your time restoring while still being able to drive and enjoy. Please ask any questions.

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally
Fri, 13 Jun 2014The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.

Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If 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.
