Lucerne Blue, Factory 4 Speed, Rare Cassette Player, Reasonable Reserve on 2040-cars
Stoughton, Wisconsin, United States
|
You are bidding on a real deal 1971 Pontiac Trans Am. This is a factory Lucerne Blue car and a factory 4 speed. It is well-optioned, including the very rare factory cassette player (not the 8 track). It is PHS documented and has a clear title. Great project car. It left the factory with the following options: -AM radio -front console -tilt steering -rear floor mats -heavy duty battery -cassette tape player -custom seat belts -front floor mats -Soft Ray glass (all) -custom interior
Overall, it is quite solid for it's age. It appears to have all of it's original body panels, including the fenders, hood, doors, rear quarters, floors, etc. The frame rails are solid, except for one small hole on the driver's side. The rear body panel is solid as well, but is dented in. It will need some rust repair. There are a few small areas in the floors that need patches, the center of the trunk pan, a small amount in the rear 1/4s, etc. See pics. I have many more pics available here (click on the link below): http://s73.photobucket.com/user/blue71ta/library/1971%20Trans%20Am%20For%20Sale Currently it has a 1974 Pontiac 400 short block with 6X heads, a TH400 auto trans and a 12 bolt rearend. It is NOT running or driving and will need to be trailered when picked up. Yes, someone did add the T-top cutouts in the roof at some time in the past, but a good body man should be able to replace the roof. I don't think it will need the quarters replaced, just patched. You are bidding on everything shown in the pictures, but I do have other parts available at extra cost to the winning bidder. These are parts that I have collected for this project (but were not included with it when I bought it). Some of these are: #197 round port heads, an intake crossover with heat shields, a '71 3.42 posi rearend, a factory air cleaner and functional shaker, a set of KR Rally II wheels, a blue '71 dash pad, a brand new trunk pan, a new rear body panel, a pair of tail light lenses and a rear bumper core. Maybe a few other things... Again, these are NOT included with this auction, but are available to the winning bidder. I will require a $500 deposit within 48 hours of auction end. This can be paid via PayPal. The balance will be due in cash or bank wire transfer within 4 days of auction end. Do not bid unless you can and will follow through.

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.
Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero
Fri, 26 Oct 2012At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."
