This is my sisters car.  It is a one family vehicle as my dad purchased it brand new from Miller Pontiac/GMC for her and he originally titled it in his name.  When my sister got married the title was transferred to her name as she moved to Teaneck, NJ. I believe the DMV still considers the car a one owner vehicle since she did not have to pay sales tax when the title was transferred to her name.  I have the clean/clear title in hand.  Autocheck shows two owners, Carfax shows one.  I wanted to explain the discrepancy.  The two owner are my father and sister.

I uploaded a video of the vehicle to youtube here:

I was able in early January to get a carfax of the car printed out by a friend that purchased the 5 vehicle carfax bundle.  I scanned in the carfax, please click the links to view the 6 pages of carfax.

The Carfax shows the car value as $60 above retail book value.  It is also eligible for the Carfax buyback guarantee:

The vehicle was involved in a fender bender in 2008.  I had the vehicle towed home and had my friend repair the car for around $1500.  It was very minor damage, but I told my sister to have it towed home just in case as she had AAA and it happened locally in Edison, NJ.  My friend replaced the upper tie bar and bent the hood back into place.  He also replaced both headlights as they had a tiny crack in them that led to them fogging up whenever it rained.  The car runs and drives perfectly.  My sister has driven 60k miles since the fender bender and never had any issues related to the accident (except a few minor cosmetic flaws, like the pontiac kidney grills in the bumper not fitting 100%, please see pictures).


The car has been maintained meticulously.  The only reason for selling the car is my sister is expecting her 2nd child any day now and she felt she needed a larger vehicle.  I figured I'd kill two birds with one stone, so I purchased a Jaguar for my mother (yes, she was pleased and surprised!) and my mothers 2007 Impala has been gifted to my sister.  The Pontiac has been a reliable car, only a few minor repairs at the dealer covered under the 5yr/100k mile warranty which has now expires as it is just past 5 years old.

The tires were replaced at Costco with Michellin Hydroedge tires when the car had 62,379miles on 06/06/2011
The tires have a 90,000 warranty with road hazard from Costco.

A large tune-up on the vehicle was done at the same time as the tire replacement.  The spark plugs (replaced with OEM Denso Iridium spark plugs), shocks/struts at all wheels with Monroe Sensatracks (two were purchased on eBay new of course, the other two were from advance auto parts) , transmission filter + fluid (royal purple ATF) and alignment were all done at the same time.  At 70,000 miles I replaced all 4 rotors & pads with Wearever Gold Brake pads.  I can find all the receipts for this work as I have the email order confirmations in my email for each purchase.

The coolant has been drained and replaced two times during the life of the vehicle.

The Battery is new and was just changed one month ago with an Autocraft gold battery from Advance Auto Parts.

The oil and filter have always been changed on time.  Currently the oil was changed at 89,000 miles with Pennzoil Platinum synthetic.  My sister would usually get the oil changed when the indicator showed 30-40% (half the time I did the oil changes and I would use synthetic, half the time it was regular oil when she went to her local place).

The air filter have been changed every 15k miles and is currently ready for another change in 100 miles.

Two keys are included with the car.  A third key my sister had made to keep in her pocketbook in case she locked the main key in the car.  This third key will only work for the doors as the car has an immobilizer security system and the Pontiac keys have a computer chip, this extra key will also be included.

If you have any questions you can reach me on my cell phone at 732-991-1467.  You can call to arrange to have your mechanic inspect the car and to arrange a test drive.

The vehicle Mileage may go up by ~250 miles during the course of the auction.

Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way

Tue, 21 Feb 2012

There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.

This classic Firebird restomod swallowed a Prius

Tue, Apr 19 2016

It takes an unusual eye to look at a 1967 Pontiac Firebird and see the Toyota Prius hidden inside. But that's just the kind of eye that a creative mechanic known online as "Bill the Engineer" has. Bill is updating his old Firebird into a true classic for the 21st century and has documenting the changes over at Priuschat and EcoModder. The TL,DR version of the story: he's replacing the worn-out powertrain with the gas-electric hybrid one from a Prius V, because it turns out the two vehicles have almost exactly the same wheelbase. Bill, who's from Columbus, Ohio and doesn't want his full name used, said in his posts on the conversion project that he's made many memories with this vehicle since buying it back in 1979. Since then, a few moves, a few decades, and some time in storage meant that the car would no longer function as he wanted it to. As he wrote, "when it comes to mice in the vehicles IT IS WAR." His solution is to make new memories and making a greener vehicle, and so we wanted to ask him how things have been going. Bill's been traveling a bit recently, but told AutoblogGreen that he's now figuring out the next steps for this amazing and complicated project. "I always plan things out before I do them," he said. That's the only way something like this can work. ABG: I think we have to start with what gave you the inspiration for this project. Was it simply that you had the two cars and wanted to see them merged into one cool mashup, or was it something else? "One day my wife wondered out loud if the car could be converted into a hybrid... The rest is history." Bill: I have been the owner of my 1967 Firebird convertible since 1979 when I bought it for $750.00. I drove it for years and made many memories. Afterward it was in storage for many years during which time mice at their way into the car and trashed the interior and wiring. I started working on a conventional restoration but always ran into major problems with hidden corrosion, electrical issues and an engine on its last legs. The car was never going to be as nice as I wanted going the conventional route. One day my wife wondered out loud if the car could be converted into a hybrid like our two daily driver Prii. That got me thinking about how it could be done. The rest is history... ABG: It looks like you started in late 2014. Have things gone well since then, or has it been one hassle after another? What has been the biggest setback, and what were the biggest victories?
