1973 455
TRANS AM This Trans Am has had a complete frame off
restoration on the entire car approximately 10 years ago and has barely been
driven since it was completed. The car just came out of a six year
storage and was gone through to make sure it was road worthy. The gas tank was drained and all fuel
lines flushed prior to starting motor. The oil was changed and the
coolant was replaced along with water pump in the last week. The engine
runs super smooth with that classic Engine and Transmission: This
455 original engine is the correct numbers matching motor that the car was
built with. The motor still all of its original components such as block,
heads, exhaust manifolds, etc. as when new with exception to the intake
which is a 1968 428 HO intake. I have a NOS(new old stock) correct 1973
intake for the car still in the box that will be included in the sale of the
car. It performs exceptionally well and is strong
runner. The carburetor is a new old stock correct 1973 455
Trans Am automatic carb(7043262) that I just purchased new in the GM box($1,000)
and installed recently. Great find getting that carb. The
transmission shifts nice and crisp between gears and the kick down works when
you leave it in drive and press down on the accelerator pedal for passing or
just for the thrill of it. The engine and transmission run and operate
properly with strong performance. Rear Axle, Brake, and
Suspension: The rear axle is the 3.08 that came with the car
because of A/C. The posi-traction works great with no noise and puts the
power down on the pavement. The entire suspension was gone through
and springs, bushings, sway bar links, etc where all replaced. The shocks
are high pressure KYB new on all four corners which give’s still car
exceptional handling. It goes down the road nice and flat, even in the
corners. The brakes are all new with all new rotors, drums, pads and hardware.
It also and it has a nice strong pedal. The brakes work great and
stop the car very quick. Interior: The interior has had new
carpet, door panels, seat covers, headliner and package tray installed when it
was restored years ago. The dash is absolutely beautiful from one corner
to the next. The gauges are nice and clear and all function correctly
with exception to the clock not working. The seat belts and
shoulder belts are all correct and original to the car with the one year only
1973 buckle. It does have the correct original pre-RTS turned metal dash
bezel. Body and Paint: Wow! The
car was painted its original color code 11 Cameo White. The body and
paint are both extremely straight and nice. The car has had new
rear quarter panels installed and the fit is very nice. The margins on
the panels all line up from quarters to trunk and doors to fenders to
hood. The tail panel is perfect with correct alignment to the rear
quarters under the rear bumper. See pics of rear. The doors
have nice well defined lips on them with no filler what so ever.
The paint is a high dollar paint job that I would estimate in today
dollars cost to be equivalent to around $7000 to $9000. The texture is
smooth and well color sanded and buffed. All of the jambs were painted
out and smooth as well with no over spray. The front nose does not
have and cracks and lines up nice to fenders. All decals are new
also and look great. The entire bottom of the car was painted black
at time of restoration and is extremely solid. There is no
undercoating on the bottom side. Nothing to hide! Very nice
car!
Wheels and Tires: I have the original 15” Paperwork: I have the PHS documents
on the car and all of the equipment and codes match this car. The
car has 36500 miles on it now but I cannot guarantee the mileage as
original. There are a few other receipts also that I will include
with car when sold. Terms: I am selling the car “AS IS”
because cars of this age are. I will require a $2,000 deposit
within two days of end of auction and the balance within seven days.
Please have your funds available to purchase. If you need additional time
for balance just call me and I am sure we can work something out on time.
I will be happy to store the car for you until you have made transportation
arrangements. I will help in coordinating the shipping if you need me to
but the cost will be paid by you. Thank you for viewing my auction and feel
free to call me at 248-760-0021 if you have any questions. Bob |

And a lot of those ways can be boring or tasteless. This one is neither. This is a seriously classy Pontiac GTO. Under the hood is a 461 cu. in. V8 from Butler Performance that's based on an actual Pontiac V8, not just another Chevy engine. The whole thing is subtle with a low-key metallic green and clean gray wheels. There isn't any overly flashy chrome or decals.
David Hasselhoff's own KITT replica up for auction
Tue, 08 Apr 2014Depending on when and where you grew up, the name David Hasselhoff likely conjures up images of Knight Rider, Baywatch, pop singer, or possibly a washed-up TV actor, but one thing that can never be taken away from The Hoff is his connection to one of the greatest automotive icons in pop culture. The Knight Industries Two Thousand, usually shortened to simply KITT, was the real star of Knight Rider for many fans. Based on a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, the car combined snarky quips for comedy relief and stunts to provide much of the show's actions. Now, Julien's Auctions is selling Hasselhoff's own replica as part of a larger sale of the actor's personal memorabilia collection.
This recreation is based on a 1986 Firebird and comes with all of the tech on the inside that now seems hilariously outdated, like the yoke steering wheel and plethora of buttons. The interior also thoughtfully includes a voice box with over 4,000 sound clips from the show. With a 5.0-liter V8 and an automatic transmission, performance is likely adequate and period correct. According to the listing, this car was created by fans and given to the Hoff. Sadly, the replica doesn't convert to Super Pursuit Mode like KITT could in later seasons, and we most associate KITT with conventional front-hinged doors to go with the power t-tops and ejector seats.
Bidding currently sits $27,500 with eight bids, since starting at $15,000. Julien's predicts it will sell for between $30,000 and $50,000. If there is some nostalgia for KITT in your heart, there is still plenty of time to bid.
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.
