1984 MECHAM RACING TRANS AM #84

 

Numbers matching 5.0L HO, 5 speed factory 3.73 posi. Fully documented, sold new at Mecham Pontiac in Glendale AZ. Have build sheet, and service records from Mecham Pontiac since new. Aside from seat covers and wheels, the car is 100% original right down to the paint. Rust free, and obviously never been hit. Original paint still has a good shine, but is getting thin in spots. The seats were reupholstered, but they used the wrong color blue. Nice dash, carpet is original and as new. No stains or rips. Equipped with the Talon Suspension from Mecham. This car handles amazing. I also had a 91 ZR-1 Corvette, and while the ZR-1 had way more power, the MSE would hand the ZR-1 it's ass in the handling department, and I'm not kidding. This car is a survivor, and has aged incredibly well. There probably aren't many better examples of a 1984 Trans Am, not to mention an MSE.
Don't be fooled by the 5.0l engine. This thing kicks ass. Mecham obviously did something to that engine. Stock exhaust with stock cat, but sounds amazing. The car comes alive at 90+mph. PM me for more info. Rare piece of Pontiac 3rd gen history. This car spent it's entire life in the Glendale AZ area, near Mecham Pontiac. I purchased the car a few years ago, and brought it to California. ZERO RUST. NONE. ZERO. NOWHERE. NOT EVEN SURFACE RUST ANYWHERE.

If you are unfamiliar with these cars, google it, there's lots of info out there. Mecham Racing was hired by Pontiac to build a Trans Am that would actually win the SCCA Trans Am Race in 1982, and they did. Mecham was well known in the 1970's for their "Macho Trans Ams", which are legendary today. When the 3rd generation F body came out, Mecham called them Motor Sports Edition, to commemorate the 1982 win. Mecham did performance upgrades to the engine, different leather wrapped steering wheel, urethane suspension, lowered coils, and a much larger rear spoiler. There were quite a few other things they did as well. Very rare cars, that rarely come up for sale. Each car was numbered. I am selling it, because I also have a 1980 Macho Turbo Trans Am #4 of 6, and am focusing on that car.

This car has never given me any issues at all. I drive it at least weekly, probably more. You can truly "fly in, and drive home".

The car is located in Santa Clarita, about 25 miles north of Los Angeles. I have a clean, clear, Arizona title in my name, in hand.


Please give me a call with any questions. I am more than happy to spend any amount of time on the phone making sure this is the car for you.

Additionally, this car is very historically significant to the Trans Am world. It needs to go to the right home. I'm not in a dire need to sell the car. If you're interested in a car to make into a K.I.T.T. Knight Rider conversion, this isn't the car for you. If you're looking for a car to modify, paint a different color, pro tour, resto-mod, etc, this ISN'T  the car. If you're looking for a very original, survivor 3rd gen Trans Am, and will continue to preserve and honor the car, then you've come to the right place.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

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.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
