1967 Pontiac Firebird 400 4-speed Project Car on 2040-cars
Santa Clara, California, United States
|
Up for auction is an original 1967 Pontiac Firebird 400 4-speed project car. This is an original California car that was purchased new in the Salinas area and has been off the road since 1977. It has remained in California its entire life. The original 400 motor and Muncie 4-speed are no longer with the car. It now has a non-original 1967 Firebird 326 and automatic transmission that goes with the car. The 3.36 dual traction bar rear axle is original, but the previous owner had it narrowed two inches. The car was disassembled and the outside of the body was sanded to bare metal, then left in a garage. It does not run or drive, but does roll. It would make a great project for someone who wants to either restore the car, or build a hot rod/race car. The PHS documentation verifies this car is a true 400 4-speed car originally equipped with power steering, power drum brakes, remote control right side mirror, custom seat belts, rally gauge cluster & hood mounted tachometer, vanity mirror, wire wheel covers, electric clock, soft ray tinted windshield and E70-14 red stripe wide oval tires. The original exterior color is Signet Gold with a cream vinyl top and gold custom bucket seat interior. The body retains its solid rust free original floors and trunk pan. The car has some rust in the rear window area that is typical of vinyl top cars (see photos). The passenger side quarter panel has some very small rust holes at the bottom and will probably need a lower patch panel. The rear tail panel is damaged and will need replacing. The front windshield area is solid but does have one small area at the base of the dashboard that will need a patch. The body also has some dents and the driver’s side quarter panel has some holes drilled that were used to pull previous dents. Included with the car are a new in the box rear window to trunk panel, driver’s side door skin, trunk lid and a rear tail panel. Also the previous owner cut out a portion of the subframe around the upper shock mount area, so the subframe will need to be replaced. Most of the parts that were removed from the car have been saved and are included with the car as well as some extra parts. Included are some valuable parts such as the original Muncie shifter, Harrison heavy duty radiator and 400 distributor. In addition the car comes with new in the box gold deluxe door panels, gold upholstery set and gold carpet set. This 47 year old car is sold with no warranties expressed or
implied. I have done my best to accurately describe this car. Please no emails
about a buy-it-now price as I will not end the auction early. The car is
available for inspection before the auction ends. The time to inspect the car
is before the auction ends, not after you purchase the car. New eBay members
with zero feedback should contact me before you bid. Please only bid if you intend to purchase the car. On Jun-18-14 at 12:38:35 PDT, seller added the following information: I looked at the windshield area today and noticed a 1"x 1" rust hole at the top of the windshield opening that will need a patch. The rest of the area looks good and solid. |

GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.
Vitruvian Energy crowdfunding to make EEB, a trashy biofuel
Sat, Nov 22 2014When sewage is treated at a wastewater treatment facility, biosolids are the byproduct. After being separated from the water, biosolids are usually sent to a landfill or incinerated. That doesn't mean that they're without value, however. Vitruvian Energy has created a process to make a usable fuel out of this human waste product, and while the source is pretty gross, it is undeniably abundant, and the results are much cleaner. EEB can be made for less than $4 a gallon. In a process that Vitruvian Energy claims is energy efficient, biosolids are femented and introduced to a type of bacteria to create PHA plastic. Reacting the PHA with ethanol creates the ethyl-3-ethoxybutyrate (EEB) biofuel. Vitruvian says EEB can be blended up to 20 percent with gasoline or diesel without any engine modifications. This lowers the carbon footprint of the fuel it's blended into, and serves to oxygenate diesel, leading to fewer harmful emissions. EEB can also be made using other organic waste products, such as corn stover, rice straw and distillers grains. EEB can be made for less than $4 a gallon and isn't subject to the maddening market fluctuations and international politics of fossil fuels. Furthermore, EEB's carbon footprint is 70 percent less than that of fossil fuels. Vitruvian also sees potential for EEB to be used on its own to power vehicles or burned to produce electricity for the grid. So far, Vitruvian Energy has used grants from the California Energy Commission and National Science Foundation to develop EEB, and has tested the fuel in a Pontiac Solstice at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Now, Vitruvian is wants to test EEB on a larger scale in the real world in order to prove EEB's viability to interested parties in the wastewater treatment industry. In an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign, Vitruvian Energy hopes to raise $200,000 to build a prototype EEB production line and to run a test vehicle for a year on an EEB-diesel blend on the streets of Seattle. Donors can score some interesting perks such as shirts and bumper stickers that say "Get Clean with Poopaline." Learn more about EEB in the video and press release below.
