1967 Pontiac Firebird 400 4-speed Project Car on 2040-cars

Year:1967 Mileage:99999 Color: is Signet Gold with a cream vinyl top and gold custom bucket seat interior
Location:

Santa Clara, California, United States

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.

 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.

2020 Porsche 911 Speedster spied with an angry driver

Wed, Feb 13 2019

Porsche gave us details and showed us a concept of the 911 Speedster at the Paris Motor Show. Today, we bring you spy shots of what appears to be the production version of that concept with a few changes on board. They're rather minimal modifications, but the Speedster's driver appears especially angry with our spy photographer as he extends his middle finger directly toward the camera. Sorry, not sorry, Mr. Test Driver. Public testing of pre-production cars always comes with photo risks, and Porsches tend to attract more attention than others. You'll notice what appears to be a Cayenne Coupe prototype we've previously spotted running around with the 911. The Speedster Concept we saw in Paris had epic retro mirrors and fuel cap on the front hood, but both those design touches are absent from this pre-production car. It's tougher to see, but we lost the vents in between the two humps, as well. Everything else appears to have made it to production-spec. We can't say we're surprised these concept car features probably won't show up on the production car, but it is a tad deflating. You'll notice the Speedster is based-off the 991.2 generation of 911 and not the new 992. Porsche did a similar thing when the 997 generation was coming to an end with a Speedster model paying tribute to that car's life. The chassis is said to utilize parts from the 911 GT3, and the wonderful naturally aspirated flat-six engine gets carried over from that car, too. Porsche didn't specify if power will be exactly the same as the GT3, but we'll be expecting about 500 horsepower and a 9,000 rpm redline. We were told the six-speed manual would be offered on the Speedster in Paris, too. Let's just say that we strongly approve of that combination. Production will be limited to only 1,948 cars and begin in the first half of this year. We'll expect a reveal with a full spec breakdown soon, possibly for the upcoming Geneva Motor Show.

Junkyard Gem: 2001 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi

Sat, Jun 19 2021

The General's Pontiac Division sold Bonnevilles from 1958 through 2005, which turned out to be well over half of the marque's existence. Named after the Bonneville Salt Flats, some Bonnevilles were huge but pretty quick, others were slow-motion land yachts, and some were nearly indistinguishable from their Buick and Oldsmobile brethren. The final generation, sold for the 2000 through 2005 model years, were among the quickest and most distinctive-looking Bonnevilles ever built, but they arrived in showrooms at a time when the clock was ticking for the division's very survival. Today's Junkyard Gem is one of those cars, an '01 with the hot-rod SSEi package. The Bonneville SSEi first appeared in the 1992 model year, just a year after the Buick Park Avenue Ultra was the first of many GM cars to get the 3.8-liter Buick V6 with an Eaton supercharger bolted on top. Production of the Bonneville SSEi continued through the 2003 model year, after which the GXP version and its Cadillac Northstar V8 took over. The 2001 version of this engine made 240 horsepower, good for plenty of torque-steery fun. Could you get this car with a manual transmission? What do you think? Some cursory research indicates that 1970 was the last model year for a three-pedal Bonneville, and even those cars must be incredibly rare. This one looks to have been in nice shape when it arrived here, with the original manuals still in the glovebox. By 2006, the Bonneville was gone; four years later, Pontiac was gone.

Florida man runs down bikers in traffic

Tue, May 31 2016

A Florida biker and his passenger got a nasty surprise when a road rage incident turned ugly on Monday. According to WTSP, Joe Calderazzo was returning from a Veterans Memorial Day motorcycle rally around 5:30 pm with a group of fellow riders. During their ride, the group got entangled with an overly aggressive driver in a Pontiac. Abe Garcia of Tampa watched the silver Pontiac attempt to run the pack of bikers off the road, which started the altercation. The bikers caught up to the Pontiac in stopped traffic, and a shouting match ensued between the bikers and the Pontiac driver. At this point, Garcia pulled out his phone and started recording. The exchange escalated, and suddenly the Pontiac driver floored it, turned hard to the right, and ran over Calderazzo's Harley. The Pontiac mangled the Harley and knocked Calderazzo and his passenger to the ground. The Pontiac then fled the scene. WTSP spoke to Calderazzo as he was on his way to the hospital. "I thought the guy was trying to kill us obviously," said Calderazzo. "You know you don't know what's going through your mind. Is he going to put the car in reverse? Is he going to turn around? Is he going to stop and pull out a gun? You don't know what's going on." The Pontiac driver, a serial traffic offender named Robert Paul Vance, was picked up by police soon after the incident. He is charged with hit-and-run, a moving traffic violation, and aggravated battery.
