1976 Pontiac Trans Am

Numbers-matching 455/4spd, FRESH frame-off restoration

The Toy Barn is thrilled to offer this absolutely beautiful '76 Trans Am, in stunning condition, and ready for it's new owner! This is a get-in-and-go Trans Am, ready for the shows, the street, or the collection, and was a recent trade-in here at our facility. This numbers-matching L75 455 H.O.  Trans Am had a complete and high-quality frame-off restoration in 2009, and was driven approximately 400 miles since completion. The previous owner had purchased it from RK motors in Charlotte, and included with the sale will be all of the photo documentation that was included when purchased. This is a beautiful car, for sure, and will be a fantastic addition to that special garage.

Condition: The Carousel Red (paint code 78) finish looks and shines fantastic, as you'd expect. The gold decals and "chicken" are all new as well, the honeycomb wheels are in excellent condition, and from front to back this Trans Am looks nearly new. Underneath, the finish is what you'd expect from a frame-off F-body like this; still shiny and close to new, with only 400 miles since the restoration. The interior is excellent as well, with a finish that looks like new. Check out the photos below, they do a good job at representing this beautiful interior. This Trans Am fires right up, sounds and runs strong. From top to bottom, this Trans Am is amazing. Call me for more details.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.

Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.
