The car was originally a V6 firebird. The donor car was a 99 formula that i had owned since 2007. The conversion was done in April 2013. I bought it from the original owner. The undercarriage has zero rust. I'm selling it because of the common situation of having kids and not having time for the car anymore.
Engine: The longblock is an 01/02 LQ4 6.0L with approximately 30k miles on it. The heads and intake are from a 2010 camaro with .040" Cometic head gaskets and ARP head bolts. The cam is a Comp 226/230 .598.600 114LSA with Patriot dual springs, FAST 39# injectors, LS2 timing chain, Melling high pressure oil pump, aftermarket lid with K&N filter(comes with spare filter), Comtech 90mm TB, LS2 MAF, Pacesetter long tube headers, 3" X-pipe with V-bands, dynomax bullets in the middle, tail pipes under the axle, Magnaflowish 4x9x14 mufflers and Borla 4.5" single tips. Cruise control module is included but needs to be wired up due to differences in wiring harness. Comes with LC-1 wideband O2 sensor setup(not installed). The car isn't bad on the street, but it definitely needs to be tuned to maximize power and efficiency. It also has a brand new oil pan gasket. Transmission/Rear-end: junk yard 4L60e with unknown mileage, huge B&M cooler, custom TCI 3200 stall(tight on the street, but gets into the power band when needed), corvette servo, poly trans mount, steel drive shaft, Auburn posi, 3.23's. Chassis/Suspension: Eibach Prokit, BMR front sway bar, BMR strut tower brace, BMR welded subframe connectors, BMR chromoly rear control arms, BMR adjustable panhard bar, poly lower control arm bushings, The rear airbags have the valve stems run through the bottom license plate holes. The rear sway bar is included but wont fit with current exhaust setup. The rack&pinion has a brand new seal kit in it. The front hub assemblies are fairly new. The tires are falken 275/40/17's with about 30% tread left. Interior/Electronics: The gauge cluster from the donor car has 150k miles, but the body itself actually has closer to 170k miles. The upper dash panel is brand new. I kept the cloth seats, because they're more comfortable than leather during Texas summers, and the driver's seat also has angle adjustment. I deleted the ash tray, but it needs to be repainted again due to the filler shrinking. The deck is a JVC with an external input for iPods, etc. The factory speakers are still in the car, but i'm including the Boston Acoustics 6.5's i had in the old car. The subwoofer is a powered Bazooka 10", which is run with RCA cables and has a volume knob on the side of the center console. The headliner has a couple of tears in it from when i fit an assembled bowflex inside the car with the hatch closed. The passenger visor was missing when i got the car, and it never bothered me. The console lid needs to be replaced or re-glued. The passenger T-top/door seal needs to be replaced, because it leaks during really bad rain storms. The antenna has been removed, because the gear was stripped, and i never used the radio anyway. The door panels have the typical cracks on the top. Body/Exterior: The car is in over-all excellent cosmetic condition for its age. It comes with the front filler panel with the bird on it, but the license plate is still underneath. the front bumper has a few touch-up spots. the quarter panels have a few dings and scratches. the paint on the side moldings is starting to fade... i would just remove them if i were keeping the car. the passenger taillamp has a hairline crack, but it has no moisture in it. The wheels are factory 01/02 WS6 speedline wheels. Anti-theft/Keyless entry: The body control module, airbag inflator module and ignition key pellet were transferred from the donor car as well. This means there are no malfunction indicator lamps illuminated on the dash, because all the modules are still synced with each other. It also allows the vehicle anti-theft system(VATS), keyless entry, and factory alarm from the donor car to be fully functional. HVAC: The A/C compressor, orifice tube, and accumulator are all brand new. So the A/C is very cold. The heater also works very well. In my opinion, these are both absolute necessities for a daily driver in South Texas. On Dec-16-13 at 09:18:11 PST, seller added the following information: The car was originally a V6 firebird. The

Saturn Vue ignition switch leads to new group of GM recalls totaling 312k
Fri, 08 Aug 2014General Motors has another spate of recalls to announce. This time they cover 312,280 vehicles worldwide, including 269,041 of in the US, in a total of six campaigns. In 2014, the automaker has recalled 29,079,765 vehicles worldwide, with 25,754,356 of those in the US.
The largest among them covers 215,243 units of the Saturn Vue from 2002-2004 model years worldwide, 202,115 in the US. It's possible for the for the key to be removed even when the ignition isn't in the OFF position. The company knows of two crashes and one injury caused by this problem. Dealers are checking the parts and replacing the ignition cylinder and key set, if necessary.
Next is 72,826 models worldwide (48,059 vehicles in the US) of the 2013 Cadillac ATS four-door sedan, 2013 Buick Encore and 2013 Chevy Trax in Canada. It's possible that the for lap belt pretensioner to retract but not to lock, which could increase occupant movement during a crash. Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.
Rent the 1967 Pontiac GTO from the XxX films now on Turo
Tue, Jan 10 2017The process of renting a car usually ranges from mildly annoying to "I'm calling corporate to get you fired." Plainly, it sucks, but sometimes you're left with no alternative. Turo, a peer-to-peer carsharing network, has created what's essentially the AirBnB for cars. Like AirBnB, the quality and variety of the rides varies based on location. If you're in Tucson, Ariz., in the next week, go check out this 1967 Pontiac GTO convertible before the release of XxX: The Return of Xander Cage. Promotions and marketing aside, this is still the opportunity to drive one of the original muscle cars. It's not clear if this is an original GTO or a Pontiac Tempest that was converted, but does it really matter? Old cars never drive as well as you hope, so, as long as it looks and sounds awesome, who cares? The owner listed on Turo is Xander C., Vin Diesel's character from the XxX franchise. This is the car that was used in the original 2002 film, and from the photos it appears to be in better shape than many other movie cars. The exterior is mostly stock, with some slight modifications to the lighting, wheels, exhaust, and trim, with the addition of a funky looking hood scoop that the listing claims shoots flames. It's not clear if it functions as an actual intake because there aren't any notes about what rests under the hood. The listing does ask for premium fuel, so more than likely it's some variation of a high-compression V8. Inside, the dashboard looks like someone raided the AutoZone accessory aisle. There are gauges, dials, toggle switches, and readouts galore. The listing also claims the Goat is packing a rocket launcher and a weapons stash under the seat. $999 per day isn't cheap, but it's less than you'd pay for a day with one of the rent-an-exotic shops you see in Los Angeles or New York. If you're not in Tucson or the price is a little too steep, Turo has what it's dubbed the Adrenaline Collection. The name may be hyperbole, but the lineup of cars is actually really solid. A quick glance reveals a 2015 Lamborghini Huracan, 2001 Ferrari 360 Spider, and a 1969 Jaguar E-Type. The car list keeps expanding, so if this proves popular, look for more cool stuff in the future.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
