This 1973 Pontiac Bonneville is a time-capsule. The interior is like-new with the only flaw being that the foam on the driver's side seat bottom is flattened out - it's forty years old, it deserves to be flattened out a bit doesn't it?
We are the 4th owners of this beauty. The first gentleman bought is new after being diagnosed with terminal cancer. After he passed away, his wife parked the car under her carport and left it there for many years. Eventually, the local high school marching band put out a call for donations to purchase new uniforms and equipment and she decided to donate the Bonneville to their cause. They raffled off the car and the 2nd owner won it by purchasing a single $5 ticket! He kept it for many years and showed it periodically before selling it to the 3rd owner, who drove it home from Ohio (I think) to Texas and parked it and only drove it periodically. We purchase the Bonneville from the owner in Texas and he delivered it to us here in Las Vegas! The Bonneville is ALL-MATCHING with a 400 CID engine with 2-barrel carb, A/C (currently not working, unfortunately), PS, and PB. The previous owner told us he had tried to convert the AC to R134 and it worked for a while and then failed. We haven't tried to repair it. We have replaced the spark plugs, rebuilt the carburetor and installed new gas-charged front shock absorbers and air-shocks on the rear (to replace the originals which were leaking). We also installed a new thermal fan clutch but still have the original, dated clutch. The only really noticeable issue on this Bonneville is that it was parked under a tree full of NASTY BIRDS at some time in its' life - probably while living in Texas (out in the country) and the paint on the hood, roof and trunk is covered with bird-dropping-caused burned marks. We had the top surfaces wet-sanded and buffed which helped tremendously, but it's still burned pretty bad when you look for it. It looks great driving down the road, just not show car quality. It could easily be stripped and repainted to put it back into top condition. The side vinyl moldings are not factory (and also are not quite straight, with a few wobbles and waves). There is also a bit of damage on the front of the passenger's side rear door and the rear of the passenger's side front door - maybe something got slammed in the door? This is clearly shown in the pics. The car starts right up and drives down the road well. Mechanically it is in excellent condition. All electrical items such as turn signals, brake lights and headlights work correctly. I will verify the actual mileage and update the auction tomorrow. I recall that it is around 25-27k. Please email any questions. I can get pictures of any specific areas, but no picture collectors, please. Thank you for taking the time to look at our auction! GOOD LUCK! |

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.
Another Burt Reynolds Trans Am is up for auction
Wed, Jan 18 2017Fans of Smokey and the Bandit, your car has arrived. This Saturday, January 21, Barrett-Jackson will auction a 1977 Pontiac Trans Am clone that, while not originally in the movie, was owned and signed by the Bandit himself, Burt Reynolds. Not only that, but it packs many modifications that should make this Pontiac drive the way we all imagined it did. This is a Trans Am clone, not an original. The car was built by Nebraska company Restore A Muscle Car, and started life as a lowly Firebird Formula. However, the company brought it up to Trans Am grade and beyond. Under the hood is a fuel-injected 8.2-liter V8 from Butler Performance that Restore A Muscle Car says produces 600 horsepower. Coupled to the big V8 is a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. There's even Hurst line-lock on-board, so this Trans Am should be perfect for on-demand burnouts. The car also comes with QA1 coil-over suspension, so it should corner better than the original, too. The outside looks roughly like a stock Trans Am, but it now has 18-inch wheels styled after those from the movie car, and the shaker scoop says "8.2" on each side. View 5 Photos In 2014, a 1977 Trans Am owned by Reynolds sold for a whopping $450,000. That car wasn't an actual movie car either, and lacked the modifications of this one. However, it was used as a promotional car and was given to Reynolds, so it did have some history with the film. This upgraded car is listed in the Barrett-Jackson catalog as "no reserve," so it's going home with a new owner on Saturday, regardless of price. Related Video:
Motorweek looks back at the Pontiac Aztek
Thu, Jul 9 2015The Pontiac Aztek has earned a position as this generation's ultimate, automotive punchline. Even other execrable models like the Yugo or Mustang II probably get more respect these days just out of their sheer quirkiness, but the Aztek remains a joke. Fortify your mind for what's coming, though, because the much-maligned Pontiac might not be quite so atrocious, at least according to MotorWeek's latest Retro Review video. MotorWeek calls the Aztek, "GM's first true crossover vehicle," and it's amazing to think of the hated model as a progenitor of one of the most popular segments today. While admitting that the looks are polarizing, John Davis and company actually come away pleased with the Aztek's utility. They praise that there's a ton of room in the back, and the interior is packed with useful features like a removable cooler in the center console and radio controls in a cargo area. The show is even impressed with how the Pontiac drives and throws around accolades like "nimble" and "pleasant." After seeing the Aztek leading the pack on lists of the worst vehicles of all time for years, listening to it get such effusive praise is actually quite jarring. Could we all be so wrong? No, there's absolutely no debate that this is still a hideous automobile. However, MotorWeek asserts a complete reversal of the generally perceived wisdom about the early CUV. While unexpected, thinking about such an abhorred model in a different way is a cool experience. Check out the video for a different take on the Aztek.
