Fresh from a four month restoration, this Firebird Esprit shows nicely.  

Its body was completely stripped and refinished in a gorgeous Cardinal Red two stage paint finish, its flawless.  There was never any rust or body damage.  
Its 325 h/p Pontiac 5.7 liter engine and transmission were removed, re-gasketed,  sealed, cleaned, detailed,and painted outside of the chassis.

  The 67K miles are original.  The engine is powerful, with no issues what so ever. 

Additionally the undercarriage, engine bay, suspension, and  under body were nicely stripped, cleaned, detailed ,and refinished/painted. 

New rear tail lamps, marker lights and light trim were installed, as well as front Halogen headlamps.

For the collector, I have the original wheels with center caps and trim rings which will go with the car.  Cragar Mags now grace the Firebirds sneakers. 

A spate of new parts were installed inclusive of, but not limited to brand new exhaust, new master cylinder and booster, new rear brakes and drums, new front brake calipers (disc brakes) and pads,  new alternator and starter, carburator overhauled, its engine freshly tuned, new rear coil over shocks, hoses and vacuum lines, univeral joints, wheel alignment,  and rear suspension bushings, and much much more, too extensive to list. 

Everything in and on the Firebird operates as was originally designed. There is nothing that does not operate on the car. 

The Firebirds interior is completely original and in wonderful condition with no rips, fading, tears, stains, and a perfect dash and headliner.  

The chrome and stainless trim are in excellent condition as well as all the glass. 

 Thousand of dollars have been spent to create what you now see.  This is a spectacular,  very unique much more than driver quality car, but not concourse,  not to be missed.   

As an early Second Generation Firebird, its devoid of the uglier later model DOT bumpers, and its body lines and trim are graceful and flowing. 

I encourage personal inspection prior to purchase, however will not allow inspection AFTER the auctions close as a condition of sale.  I have great feedback on the cars I have sold and have honestly represented this car.   Bid and purchase  with confidence, and please.... feel free to ask questions after having carefully read the above listed description. 

Kindly, do not ask my reserve.  My Buy it Now price should be a pretty good indicator as to what I will sell the Firebird for.  

Last, I reserve the right to end the auction early. The Firebird is for sale locally.   

Thanks for the interest.......  Best of luck.   Chris.

This 93-car Iowa auction is like a Big 3 classic muscle museum

Tue, Aug 27 2019

Bill "Coyote" Johnson has been buying cars since high school and has amassed a collection totaling 113 vehicles, according to NBC 6 News. But time has changed his motivations and priorities, and he's decided to auction 93 of those cars, many of which are classic muscle from Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Plymouth and Pontiac. The megasale will take place Sept. 14, 2019, in Red Oak, Iowa, at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds. A 1969 Plymouth Road Runner infected Coyote with a love for Detroit muscle when he was just a teenager, and his desire quickly turned into an obsession. He's spent the past 40 years finding, buying and working on a variety of makes and models. Unlike some collectors, Coyote didn't discriminate against certain brands and has rides from each of the Big 3 automakers. Included in the auction are Camaros, Satellites, Super Bees, Chargers, Challengers, Barracudas, Coronets, GTOs, Mustangs, Cutlasses and others. Possibly the most intriguing aspect of the auction is that all of these cars will be sold as-is with no reserve. Many of them will need work, depending on quality standards, but this seems like a golden opportunity to find a classic car without leaving a bank account in shambles.  The auctions are open for bidding online now, and the full auction will take place on September 14. Check out the full listings and bid at VanDerBrink Auctions.

GM Recalls 1.5 Million Cars For Steering Defect

Tue, Apr 1 2014

General Motors Co. said Monday it is recalling 1.5 million vehicles worldwide because the electronic power-steering assist can suddenly stop working, making them harder to steer. The new recall brings to 6.3 million the number of vehicles GM has recalled since February. The initial recall - now at 2.6 million small cars for an ignition switch defect - prompted the automaker to name a new safety chief and speed up the review of cases that might lead to recalls. GM said it expects recall-related costs to total $750 million in the first quarter, including $300 million for the ignition switch recall. Included in the new recall are: - Chevrolet Malibu from the 2004-2005 model years, plus some 2006, 2008 and 2009 model-year cars. - Chevrolet Malibu Maxx from the 2004-2005 model years, plus some 2006 model-year cars. - Chevrolet HHR from the 2009-2010 model years (non-turbocharged only). - Some Chevrolet Cobalts from the 2010 model year. - Some Saturn Auras from the 2008-2009 model years. - Saturn Ion from the 2004-2007 model years. - Pontiac G6 from the 2005 model year, plus some cars from the 2006, 2008 and 2009 model years. - Service parts installed into certain vehicles before May 31, 2010, under a previous recall GM says no deaths related to the defect have been reported. It is still investigating whether there have been any accidents or injuries related to the problem. GM dealers will replace the power steering motor and other parts for free. Spokesman Alan Adler said owners will be notified of the recall the week of April 28 and will be told when parts are available after that. The Cobalt and the Ion, which are also involved in the ignition switch recall, share many common parts.GM recalled Cobalts from the 2005-2010 model years for the power steering defect in 2010, but it's unclear why the company didn't recall the Ion at the same time. Federal regulators also opened an investigation into power steering complaints in the Ion in 2010, but didn't order a recall.

Want to buy a worst-in-show-winning Faux Ferrari Fiero?

Mon, Aug 31 2020

UPDATE: This heap sold for $5,001. But don't fret, there are more terrible cars out there for the taking if that's your thing. Today we bring you something truly terrible. It's not just a fake Ferrari built on the guts of an old Pontiac Fiero, it's actually the world's worst fake Ferrari built on the guts of an old Pontiac Fiero. And it's got the award from the Concours d'Lemons to prove it. It's so heinous, in fact, that it has somehow managed to become desirable, at least judging by the bidding history of this bright red affront to Maranello. Powered by a 140-horsepower 2.8-liter V6 engine (covered by an unconvincing and broken fake V12 cover) hooked to an automatic gearbox, this gloriously poor Prancing Horse won't be winning many stoplight drag races. There are bundles of stray wires hanging down from the dashboard, it has high mileage, most of its lights don't work, and it's ugly. Like, really ugly. And to top it off, this Fauxrarri can't currently be registered in its home state of California because it has failed its most recent smog test. Put simply, you're looking at a total piece of junk. But a piece of junk with internet notoriety, having been featured on an episode of Jay Leno's Garage after attending the 2019 Quail Motorsports Gathering — by mistake at first, and then earning a special place next to the porta potties — being the focus of a video series on YouTube and winning the aforementioned ribbon for Worst in Show at Lemons. Somehow, bidding has topped $4,000 at the time of this writing. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
