The Good: Since the car is 26 years old , I had many components replaced to ensure better reliability.(new parts are listed in parentheses) * The car has the ORIGINAL 2.8L V6 engine that runs great at only 49,800 miles. (new plugs, plug wires and distributor cap, rotor and new starter) *The 3-speed automatic shifts smoothly and quietly every time. ( New Filter and upgraded torque converter lock valve) * The suspension is tight (upgraded with new front shocks, Rear struts, new front upper and lower A-frame bushings, new boots on upper and lower ball joints) and a four wheel alignment job from Firestone. Note the bushings weren't warn , but the rubber was dry. * This car drives and handles very good and turns heads, everything is stock with the exception of the 17" rims and low profile tires. The Low profile tires out perform the originals by far , but cause a little rougher ride. ( Rims , tires and alignment cost approx $2, 000) * The car has a new (catalytic converter, Oxygen sensor and the muffler shop made it so the exhaust system can be removed in several pieces by installing expensive flanges.) * Brakes ( 4 New slotted disk and brakes are new in front and good in back) * Air conditioning system upgraded to new high pressure Freon standard (New R134 Compressor, Dryer and expansion tube) cold air. * Fuel
system, (new fuel Tank,fuel pump/lines,
filter and new fuel gage sending unit in tank.)
Could be improved: 1. The car looks stunning, however the clear-coat has some hazing on the hood, tops of fenders roof and top of rear fenders. You may be able to use some product to make it go away. I have several pictures with it dry and several while washing the car and the water completely hides the fading. The Car still looks good but will eventually need painted! I'm asking, A lower price because of the paint. 2. The
car sat for several years and I have not driven it that much, therefore the
door locks and windows are stiff.
3. The
rubber on the outer part of the doors that wipes the windows are cracked and
will eventually need replaced. 4. The previous owners had an alarm system installed, which I hate and would eventually remove! Here is why, when the key is placed to start, the system goes through a check and then the starter kicks in 1-2 seconds later. I'm not a alarm specialist or I would have removed it by now. Plus if both door locks are not fully unlocked or locked the engine will not start. (it happened once until I figured it out.) 5. The Engine Temp needle fell off the other day. But still works. I guess this is common in the Fiero. The gage is about $70 at the fiero store. 6. The valve covers may drip just a tiny bit as I found a little oil spot on the garage floor after a month of sitting. Look at my other feedback and you will find that I try to be very honest. good luck I have $6,500 invested so my loss is your gain. Please don't hesitate to contact me!

Remember when Pontiac made a Trans Am Kammback grocery getter?
Thu, Nov 8 2018Despite muscle cars having strong reputations as some of the most impractical cars one can buy, they've occasionally had one of the most useful and practical features a car can sport: a hatchback. In the 1980s, General Motors' Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird had one, and it added respectable utility to the sports cars. But the people at GM thought they could make the F-Body cars even more useful. So, after a few clay-model experiments, Pontiac built three examples of an extended-roof 1985 Pontiac Trans Am Kammback concept. Spotted by GM Authority, one of these Trans Am Kammbacks (although "shooting brake" seems like the more apt descriptor) is going on the block at the Mecum Kissimmee auction in early January 2019. Reportedly only three of these prototypes/experiments/test mules were built to driveable specs, and this example, VIN No. EX4796, has additional history that might make it the ultimate example. According to Mecum, the show car, which has made appearances at numerous auto shows, also spent some time at the race track — just not as a participant. It was used as a pace car for PPG and IMSA racing and temporarily had a light bar and "two-way communications equipment." Following its pace duty, and after GM stopped the project from going any further, it was put into Pontiac Engineering's private collection for 13 years. Famous Michigan car collector and Pontiac dealership owner John McMullen then bought the car. He eventually sent it to Pontiac specialist Scott Tiemann for a full restoration to the gorgeous condition it is in today. As seen in the photos, the Trans Am features white paint over a gray leather interior. It houses a 5.0-liter V8 under the hood and has a five-speed manual transmission. The wild concept is rare enough to be super cool, but we can't help but think of an infinitely more practical, more modern, more powerful, and arguably more interesting car we'd rather have. Manual Cadillac CTS-V Sport Wagon in Black Diamond anybody? Or, if you don't care about the extra doors, perhaps the Callaway's Corvette AeroWagen is more applicable. Either way, we're in full support of any shooting brakes we can find. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
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:
Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later
Fri, 12 Sep 2014
Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
