This is my personal Car from my collection I am in a personal transition and selling a few of my blue chip
investment cars.
This is a VERY RARE Muscle car there are few that can say they have seen a REAL 400 4 speed HO Convertible ..
let alone have one
They made 91 of the 400 Ho 4 Speed convertibles, of them 4 were Trans Am Convertibles ( that sell for 3-5 Million
in this condition if they are availible)
the 87 400 HO cars left ( none TA) were seen as a sleeper from the factory and these cars were NOT Promoted and
even discouraged. Over the last 25 years I have found 17 of them from rust buckets to Prestine ( one in Fla is
WOW nice)
The only NUMBERS Matching car like mine I have seen sell is a Green on Green one in January 2010 that sold for
76,000 at BJ Scottsdale and lets be honest Green on Green not my flavor.
This car is a 1 of 1 Car
Why you ask
well other than the color combo which is rare!
This car is Drag Pak Car It has the Special Order 3.90 Rear end factory order with Tilt Steering. Both I have
confirmed with PHS are not normal on a 400HO
It is Power roof Car
Power steering
the interior is ORIGINAL
The engine has NEVER been out of the car .
The only thing not right on the engine is the water pump that was removed in 94 as it was leaking ( its in the
trunk)
Car has ALL The Ram Air parts in the trunk BRAND NEW. The same way the Ram Air cars were dleivered car was to the
dealers in 1969.
This car has NEVER left BC Canada .. I have known this car for a LONG time!
Sold new in 1969 to Ross He sold it to his sister in 1992, then after years of asking I got the car I have
owned her for many years and have ONLY 473 miles on it I start the car every 2 weeks .. I have the original
rims on the car I have removed the foose legends and sold them . the car is and was a Sleeper from the factory.
This car was a Special FACTORY ORDER car, I have talked to the man that ordered it new. It was so well optioned
with go fast items it was insane expensive and MSRP was OVER that of the 2 69 Trans Am Convertibles that also sold
in Vancouver BC
If you want a car you can NEVER replace this may be the one. Again Fly here and inspect the car you will be
glad you did .
Numbers
of the approx 87000 Firebirds built in 69
Approx 11000 were convertibles (1 in 8)
of the firebirds only 87 were 400 HO 4 speeds Firebirds
and 4 were Trans Am Convertible 4 speeds all Ram air
You see this is beyond rare
If this was a COPO Camaro BB 4 speed Convertible it would be $280,000 plus Firebirds are coming up in value and
this is one of the best they ever made.
This car has 1 repaint ( factory Pladdium Silver - 1996 )

Junkyard Gem: 2008 Pontiac G5 Coupe

Sun, Apr 9 2023

In the grim early days of the Great Recession, the situation at GM's Pontiac Division didn't feel so great but there was some cause for optimism. The Solstice still had a certain glow, the Holden Commodore-based G8 had just arrived, and vehicle shoppers could stride into their local Pontiac showrooms and choose from eight different models bearing the iconic arrowhead badge. Yes, there were still new Torrents and Grand Prix and Vibes for sale in 2008, and of course the Cavalier-twin Sunfire had been replaced by the Cobalt-twin G5 by that time. Here's one of those G5s, found in a Colorado Springs car graveyard. It wasn't long after this car was built that everything went to hell for Pontiac. In April of 2009, GM announced that the Pontiac Division would be "phased out" over the next few years. Just to drive home the point, GM itself filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy five weeks later. GM had already offed Oldsmobile—a marque dating back to 1897, making it nearly 30 years Pontiac's senior—five years earlier, so everybody knew there would be no reprieve in this case. Just to confuse everybody, Pontiac dealers offered a G3-badged Chevy Aveo (aka Daewoo Kalos) to sell alongside the G5 for 2009, but by 2010 there were just two new Pontiac models still standing in the United States: the G6 and the Vibe. Just over 70,000 G5s were sold in the United States during the 2007-2009 model years, making these cars fairly rare. The Cobalt/G5 ignition-switch fiasco of the mid-2010s really hammered their resale value at the time. Sometimes the definition of "Gem" refers to historical value, not the happier kind. Speaking of ignition switches, the key is still in this one. That generally means that a junkyard vehicle is a dealership trade-in or insurance total that couldn't sell at auction. This one is a base model, which listed at $15,675 (about $22,040 in 2023 dollars). The snazzier G5 GT started at $19,850 ($27,911 now) that year. The engine in this car is a 2.2-liter Ecotec four-banger rated at 148 horsepower and 152 pound-feet (the GT got a 2.4 with 171 hp/167 lb-ft). A five-speed manual was standard equipment, but the buyer of this car paid extra for the automatic. GM stuck these little "Mark of Excellence" badges on the fenders of its vehicles starting in 2005, then ditched the idea in 2009. I have vivid memories of this logo from the seatbelt buttons in my parents' 1973 Sportvan Beauville.

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll

Tue, 25 Feb 2014



588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.

One of Burt Reynolds' favorite cars could be yours

Fri, Apr 12 2019

LOS ANGELES — One of Burt Reynolds' favorite cars is going up for auction in June along with some of his cowboy boots, hats, sports jackets and other items from his estate, Julien's Auctions said on Friday. The two-day auction in Beverly Hills, authorized by the actor's family, comes almost a year after the death at age 82 of the charming star who was one of Hollywood's favorite actors. The highlight of the auction is a 1979 Pontiac Trans Am car that Reynolds used on photo shoots and drove on the Bandit Run cross country rally, which re-enacts the journey at the center of his 1977 film "Smokey and the Bandit." The car, which Reynolds co-owned with his business partner Gene Kennedy, is expected to fetch up to $500,000 at auction, Julien's said in a statement. Two pairs of leather cowboy boots — one red and one yellow — are also offered for sale with estimates ranging from $800 to $2,000 a pair, along with two cowboy hats. Reynolds started out as a football player at Florida State University (FSU) before injuries suffered in a car crash wrecked his hopes of a professional career. But his attachment to FSU remained strong. The auction includes several custom or personalized FSU baseball, basketball and varsity jackets. Other highlights include an oil on canvas painting of the actor's favorite horse titled "Cartouche," which carries an estimate of $20,000 - $30,000. Other art works, furniture and dozens of personal items are also being offered for sale. The auction will take place in Beverly Hills on June 15 and 16, and will be preceded by a public exhibition of some of the items from June 10-14. Reynolds, who was also known for the 1960s television series "Gunsmoke" and the movies "Deliverance" and "Boogie Nights,"" died of a heart attack in Florida in September 2018.
