The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"95 percent. needs very little to be complete show quality car. all pans were professionally replaced in 04 at the same time a dakota digital dash was installed and a turbo 400. later someone put 373 gears into the posi rear end. pontiac historical lists the car as a firebird 350 that was originally the rare limelight green. if i keep the car it will go back to that color but i'll add black t/a stripes and keep the t/a look.i'd rather see someone else have it, though. i had a 71 poncho 350 built last november and i've driven this car so little that i only did the first oil change about a month ago.the headliner needs to be finished and a couple of bubbles near the fender louvers need to be cleaned up and touched up eventually. install an a/c if you want to. i didn't , i did install a 1000 watt amp and a box with two 10 inch subwoofers to fill the sound from the sony 6x9's out a little better. turn heads wherever you go and you don't have to rev the engine to get the looks."

i traded a 69 torino gt convertible for this car knowing the engine was blown.  it's just clean and it has some records of what had been done to it.  when you buy these old cars you don't get much documentation usually.

anyway, i went through two pontiac motors that had bad blocks before i found one that had been machined and the owner never picked it up.  i bought it and between the three engines i had the brackets, timing chain covers etc.  i picked up a few things from butler performance and jegs.
it's a 71 350 .040 over with heads that were milled.015 or .020 (i can't remember) in 06 when it was abandoned.  since it's .040 over instead of .030 over i'm guessing this is a second build and the head may have another .015 off of them too.  that would make 6 to 7 cc's gone from the giant combustion chambers and would bring the sug up from 7.6:1 to maybe 8:1 c/r.  still runs fine off of pump gas.  
the body is in 99 percent condition.  a couple of chips and a bubble or two.  the interior is in 80-90 percent.  they stopped when they were doing the headliner and there are a coupl of small cracks in the dash.  everything works.  lights wipers etc.  the driver side bright bulb doesn't burn and the passenger side front turn signal doesn't blink (probably a bulb and i'll fix it this weekend if it is).  all glass and chrome is in very good condition, window fels are in good condition, glass all goes up and down.  it's a really nice car.  it could stand a coat of wax because it hasn't had one in a year.
buyer is responsible for shipping.  500 dollar PAYPAL ONLY deposit is required immediately after the sale and is non refundable.  the balance is due within three days of the end of the auction.  if you can not follow those rules please don't bid.  i had this car sold before and the buyer didn't want to use paypal but would wire me the money after i handed him my banking information.  not going to happen.  don't waste our time or mine trying to scam me.
this is a nice car, i have people stopping by every week claiming they want to buy it.  i've turned down 15,000.  i know what it's worth.  i play with these old cars all the time.  you don't find them this straight outside of barrett jackson very often.
i will consider partial trades.  i need a one ton flatbed for my farm.  must be clean and have everything in working order. don't care if it's gas or diesel.

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes

Mon, 01 Oct 2012

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

There's a 'Knight Rider' movie in development

Mon, Aug 17 2020

James Wan, who has directed films from the first "Saw" to "Aquaman," with "Furious 7" in between, and produced even more projects, is producing a new Knight Rider movie according to a report in Deadline. Just in case there's a reader who doesn't know, Knight Rider was one of the seminal trio of iconic-car shows from the 1980s, along with "The Dukes of Hazzard" and "Miami Vice." The series lasted 90 episodes that ran from 1982 to 1986, following the crime-fighting exploits of Michael Knight, a man who crusaded for justice after being shot in the face. Billionaire Walton Knight hired Michael to work with the Knight Foundation, where Michael helps develop the Knight Industries Two Thousand, a Pontiac Trans-Am with AI that can talk, drive more than 200 miles per hour, and could teach MI6's Q Branch about gadgetry. Collider described David Hasselhof's Michael Knight as "crimefighter by trade and wearing-a-leather-jacket-with-no-shirt-underneath innovator by hobby." The show made such an impression that there was a series spinoff called "Code of Justice," two TV movies in 1991 and 1994, a convention called KnightCon, and a series reboot on NBC that lasted for one season from 2008 to 2009, as well as stores full of action figures and models and literature, YouTube fan-made trailers and movies, and this wacky German-dubbed short "Knight Rider" film starring Hasselhoff. We don't know anything about the new movie's plot yet, other than that it's set in the present. T.J. Fixman, better known for now as a video game writer who worked on franchises like "Ratchet and Clank" and "Resistance: Fall of Man," has been attached to write, with a mandate to keep "the anti-establishment tone of the original." With matters still early in development there's no telling when the movie will hit theaters, and Wan's probably got his hands busy with the new MacGuyver reboot for CBS, anyway. Now that there's already been a Knight Industries 2000 and 3000, that gives us plenty of time to imagine — in a world where 200-mph hypercars powered by everything sprout like weeds and even Cannonballers are using military-like equipment — what would a Knight Industries Four Thousand possess? And would it be called KIFT? Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
