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!!!!

Junkyard Gem: 1987 Pontiac Firebird

Sat, May 9 2020

From 1967 through 2002, the Pontiac Division offered the Firebird, close sibling to the Chevrolet Camaro. By the third generation, which debuted for the 1982 model year, it became more difficult to tell the two F-body cars apart at a glance and the Pontiac-exclusive engines of the earlier years disappeared, but the Firebird still retained its own personality and its own position in the GM marketing hierarchy. I still find the occasional 1982-1992 Camaro as I search car graveyards for interesting stuff, but the corresponding Firebirds have become scarce in recent years. Here's a base-engine-equipped '87, its Bright Red paint (yes, that was the official name for the color) faded by the Colorado sun as it awaits the crusher. Firebird shoppers had their choice of three engines in 1987: A 5.7-liter Chevy V8 (210 hp), a 5.0-liter Chevy V8 (205 hp) and the same 2.8-liter 60° V6 that went into the Fiero and countless front-drive GM sedans (135 hp). This car has the base engine. The third-gen F-body didn't weigh much (3,105 pounds for the '87 with six-banger, about what a 2020 Corolla weighs), so 135 horses was tolerable. Plenty of these cars got T-5 5-speed manual transmissions, but this one got the two-pedal setup. Camaro wheels, of course. Our Friend the Carburetor didn't disappear from new cars until the early 1990s in the United States, though electronic fuel injection had become very commonplace by 1987. Still, GM considered this car's EFI worth a door-handle brag. It's not worth fixing up a mashed six-cylinder third-gen Firebird, so we can see the route this car took to its final parking space.

Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO

Thu, 08 Aug 2013

Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.

Distracted driver crosses center line and hits police car

Wed, Apr 6 2016

Attentive driving and quick reflexes saved the life of a police officer in Hudson, WI, when an oncoming driver drifted into the officer's lane and struck his cruiser. According to KMSP, the officer was patrolling along a busy road through Hudson on March 31 when the crash occurred. Dash cam video from the patrol car which was released to local media shows the dramatic collision unfold. As the officer came around a mild left-hand curve, a white, 90s-era Pontiac Grand Am continued straight through the curve, across the center line, and directly into the officer's path. The officer was able to avoid a head-on collision, but the Pontiac still struck the driver's side of the patrol car. "Both the officer and the other driver are ok, however, this accident could have been much, much worse," said a Hudson Police Department official on the department's Facebook page. "So please remember to pay attention to your driving at all times when behind the wheel." Minnesota's Department of Public Safety estimates that one in every four crashes in the State of Minnesota are caused by distracted drivers. DPS believes that the actual number may be higher, but police often have difficulty proving distracted driving as the cause of a crash. Government/Legal Pontiac Driving Safety Coupe Police/Emergency
