Very well-maintained Trans Am, with low miles! A real head-turner! The engine runs smooth as silk and is extremely reliable. Operationally, there are no defects with the car whatsoever. Oil changed regularly with fully synthetic oil. Always filled up with premium gasoline. SMOKE-FREE! The 5.7L (347.8 cu in) LS1 V8 provides 305 bhp and is the same engine used in the 97-04 Corvettes!
However, there are a few blemishes that could be quite easily fixed:
- Driver-side headlight pops up and works, but one of the hinges is broken, so it sits at an angle.
- There are two dents on the passenger-side rear fender, behind the door. One at the bottom that is very small, and one near the center that is larger.
- The driver seat has a tear in the upper left side.
- The radio antenna does not go up and down anymore - it is stuck half-way up, but the radio and CD player still work great.
- Each door has a small crack on the inner plastic in the same place - see photos.
- While some of the photos may show the disc brakes as looking rusty, once you drive the car and touch the brakes they shine right up (no rust)!
- The check engine light is NOT on - but it came on recently and was checked - it was just an emissions problem, not a real issue!
The car is currently in Skipwith, VA, but I am going to college in Christiansburg, VA. I still drive the car, so the mileage may go up a little. The car will either be in Skipwith or Christiansburg when it sells!
Shipping or pick-up is the responsibility of the buyer. Local pick-up is okay.

Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?
Wed, 07 Oct 2009 DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.
Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For 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.
