Up for auction is a 1969 Pontiac Firebird base model. Don't let the outside fool you, the floors and structure of this car are solid.

FOR MORE PICTURES: Pictures

The car is not running, has been sitting since the late 80s. It will be years before I'd get a chance to build this so I'm going to offer it up for sale.

It's a 50 50 Paint code so it would be great for a Trans Am clone. Also has blue vinyl bucket seat interior and factory A/C with the big block A/C box under the hood.

The best part about this car is that it is basicly untouched and original with SOLID FLOOR AND TRUNK PANS. I believe the engine and automatic transmission are the original. Everything looks factory. The A/C compressor was taken off and is just laying in the engine bay. The condensor and box are still in place.I have not tried to start the engine.

The car definitely needs front fenders, rockers and quarter panels. I still have not figured out how the lower side of the exterior rusted to the extent that it has without the floors and trunk being rotted out. There is no bondo in the car. Someone at some point sprayed the car blue over top of the original white (same white as the 69 Trans Ams). The glass is all good, needs a cleaning. I've left the car pretty much how I found it, no cleaning or glamming it up.

The blue interior appears to be original. Driver's seat is in rough shape. Back seat should clean up really good, I haven't found any tears. The passenger seat has one seam busted on the shoulder towards the door. The carpet needs replaced, it's dry rotted. Need headliner. Door panels aren't terrible, I would reuse them for a driver style build. Needs the armrests replaced. Original steering wheel is a little sticky like most of them are.

Car has a 10-bolt rearend with the mutli-leaf springs.

I've tried to take a lot of good pictures of the car to show what's rusted and what isn't. I will be added a link a little later to more pictures. I believe I have around 48 total. If you are somewhat local and would like to come take a look at the car you are more than welcomed to.

Buyer responsible for pick up of the car. No shipping on my part. I prefer CASH. I will work with a certified check but the car will not leave here until the money has cleared the bank.

This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels

Sat, 14 Dec 2013

We like cars, and we like art. Naturally, Chris Labrooy's Auto Aerobics series - computer-generated images of some seriously contorted 1968 Pontiac Bonnevilles floating in mid-air - instantly clicked with us. If the Pontiacs weren't floating or hollow, we could be fooled into believing the image is real. But where's the fun in that?
Check out the gallery we included of Labrooy's Bonneville art, and feel free too head over to his website for some Formula One humor.

GM recalling 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

General Motors has announced that it will be recalling 778,562 compact cars after six people were killed in accidents, partially due to the airbags' failure to deploy. An issue with the ignition switch is causing the airbag issues, as well as causing the engine and other components to shut off without warning. The recall covers the 2005 to 2007 model year Chevrolet Cobalt and 2007 Pontiac G5. (Note that the Cobalt pictured above is a 2009 model.)
According to a report from Automotive News, a number of factors can cause the ignition to switch out of the run position, including weights on the key ring, rough or bumpy roads or other "jarring" events. Any of these situations could lead to some vehicle components not functioning properly.
There have been five fatal front-impact crashes that took the lives of six people, although as a GM spokesman noted, all five of the crashes happened off road and at high speed. In each of these cases, though, the lack of airbags wasn't the only lethal factor - alcohol and failure to wear a seat belt also played a role. Outside of the fatal accidents, there have been 17 other crashes where airbags didn't deploy. It's unclear if any of these crashes were caused by the engine shutting off.

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.
