US $7,500.00
Year:1979 Mileage:32000
Location:

Allentown, Pennsylvania, United States

Allentown, Pennsylvania, United States

This is a TRUE 1979 Firebird Espirit RedBird (See VIN). Please know what a redbird is before you inquire about this specific car. It is not a Trans Am, Formula or BaseFirebird. It does not have the eagle on the hood.

Paint is newer (few years) and interior is almost perfect. The odeometer reads 32,000 miles however the title states TMU (true mileage unknown) due to age. Thus I have no idea how many miles are truly on the car. I was the told the drivetrain is original and has the 301 2 barrel engine. Metal, trim, etc are all good and very solid body with no known rust. Very Nice but if you are going to look down the side of the car it is not perfect..there are some minor imperfections.

The car is special in that everything is there and not ripped out like so many of these 2nd generation cars had done. I had to spend roughly 2K after purchasing to fix some issues.

It is currently under a classic car insurance policy with agreed value of 9,000.00 The PA inspection and emissions are good until 6/2014. The car has a new exhaust system, weather stripping, tires and many other recent suspension items. Interior is a 9.5 out of 10. (very small) crack on dash. That is about it. rug, headliner, seats, console, gauges, etc. all 9.5 out of 10.

Please email me with more questions or send your phone # and I can call you to discuss. This car was supposed to ship west with me during my job relo in December but the winter has been to brutal to trailer it so it is still located in Allentown, Pa. Final attempt at listing now that the weather is nice in NorthEast. No trades and I will not take $5,000 for the car. You will not find a car like this, what the repairs in it and looks for my asking price.

**NOTE** Please note you must come see the car (in Person) and go to a local notary to do all paperwork. No exceptions or shipping. Please do not ask for a picture of every square inch of the car. Come see it for yourself. The pictures below will show you it is exceptionally clean.

Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way

Tue, 21 Feb 2012

There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later

Fri, 12 Sep 2014



Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."

Wanted: 1967 Pontiac GTO for a special Father's Day

Thu, 07 Jun 2012

Jim Sharp of Elkhorn, Wisconsin needs a red 1967 Pontiac GTO to make his dad's Father's Day, possibly his last one, something extra special.
Back in the '60s, Jim's dad, Ken, drove a cherry red 1967 GTO to California for a job. He met a girl, got married and decided his wife's 1965 Ford Mustang was more fuel efficient than the Goat and the GTO was sold. As the story almost always goes, Ken has had seller's regret ever since.
Jim always meant to find a 1967 GTO and, with his dad's help, restore it. But life got in the way, time slipped by and Ken was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and given about three months to live.
