1993 Pontiac Firebird Project Car With Lots Of High Performance Parts!!!! Look!! on 2040-cars
Buford, Georgia, United States
Okay, please read all of this!! THE GOOD NEWS IS AT THE BOTTOME!!! I have up for sale my 93 Pontiac firebird project car, it was running when I bought it, I put around a 100 miles on it. I parked it and start disassembly on it, I have bagged and tagged almost all of the parts. My intentions for this car was to build a super street rod but I do not have the time, experience or cash to finish it. The motor needs to be either rebuilt or have a new one put in, the front seal was leaking oil and I know it had an oil leak somewhere else but it wasn't bad enough to where you couldn't drive it. The transmission may just need fluid and filter but who knows my intention was to just buy a new one and sell the other as a rebuildable one. With all that would have to be done with the front seal and all I figured it would just be better to start ground up. The motor did not run all that well, it seems to me that it has an electrical problem seeing as someone drilled a hole in the firewall to run a wire that would directly power the instrument panel, and it had a hard time staying running while idling. It needs to be repainted, whoever painted it last did a horrible job, its a sparkly black and bubbles up in some spots, the headlight motors did not work, the power window motor did not work on the driver side. It needs a new interior, the dash pad is gone, the speakers do not work. The plastic wheel wells are gone and I would get a new radiator and hoses for it but I do have the old one...NOW THE GOOD NEWS!!!! I HAVE SPENT ALOT OF MONEY ON PERFORMANCE PARTS!!!! I have the complete Magnaflow exhaust kit, the BBK chrome header and y pipe, K&N fuel injection performance kit, brand new high performance throttle body, black and chrome rebuilt and repainted intake, Edelbrock 61909 super street heads w/ matching camshaft, MSD optispark distributor, ignition coil, and spark plug wires. 2 custom painted Pontiac valve covers which match the intake, 8 top of the line best you can buy iridium spark plugs, 2 12" sony sub woofers plus brand new original fit speakers for the door panels, 4 brand new 18" American racing wheels w/brand new matching 245/40/18 w speed rated falken tires. also I have bought the replacement motor for the driver side power window. The last picture I included was what it looked like when I bought it, I hope this is right up your alley!!!!

Drive plays Smokey, Bandit with turbo Trans Am
Sun, Jun 28 2015The modern trend for powertrains can be summed up with the simple maxim: cut displacement and add forced induction. Whether you are looking at the just-introduced 2016 Chevrolet Cruze or a BMW M3, this adage holds true. However, Pontiac's attempt at the idea goes all the way back in 1980 with the Firebird Trans Am and its turbocharged 4.9-liter V8. Drive's Mike Musto takes out a 1981 example to explain what makes this largely forgotten muscle car so special, and it certainly isn't performance. While a 4.9-liter V8 might sound like a lot in the modern world, keep in mind that only few years before the second-generation Trans Am was available with up to a staggering 7.5-liters of displacement. Turbocharging of road cars in the early '80s was quite archaic by today's standards, and the Firebird only managed around 200 horsepower with this mill. Without much go, the turbo Trans Am made up for a lack of power with lots of show. As Musto points out, the famous flaming chicken adorns practically every surface you can see on the coupe, and boost lights on the hood illuminate when the turbo is spinning. Musto still finds a lot to like about the turbo Trans Am. He even calls it "Burt Reynolds as an automobile." Find out why the coupe is so special in this entertaining clip.
GM Design shows what could have been and what might be
Thu, May 27 2021We periodically like to check in with GM Design's Instagram account to see what they're cooking up. Even better is when we catch a glimpse of an alternate history of what legendary designers from The General's past were thinking, though those ideas may not have made it into production. This week, for example, the account posted some illustrations from George Camp, whose career at GM spanned nearly four decades, from 1963 to 2001. One of the renderings is of what appears to be a 1971-72 Pontiac GTO Judge, but with two headlights instead of the production unit's quad beams. The rear departs from the canonical version most dramatically, with a massive integrated wing. Other bits that didn't make the production cut include large side vents, a gill-like side marker and rectangular intakes below the headlights that wouldn't be out of place on a modern design today. Amazingly, from what we can make out of the date, it appears that the drawing was done sometime in 1965, which makes it quite prescient.

To our eyes it splits the difference between the 1986 Corvette Indy concept and a fourth-generation F-body Pontiac Firebird, so perhaps parts of Camp's work on this sketch did make it into physical form. There's also a radical sports car concept from May 1970 that resembles the Mazda RX-500 concept from the same year, a Syd Mead-looking Cadillac coupe, and an Oldsmobile with a cool take on the company's trademark waterfall grille and elements of the Colonnade Cutlass at the rear. Other recent posts include a FJ Cruiser-like off-road EV, a sleek coupe with the Chevy corporate grille, and a rendering of a Silverado-esque pickup that looks far better than the current production version.

Junkyard Gem: 2001 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi
Sat, Jun 19 2021The 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.
