 This car has 2011 rear tires, 2013 front tires, Nitto Invo. New plugs, O2 sensors (all 4), belt and battery. I keep the old plugs with the car so you can see it is running perfectly. New upgraded sway bar links and bushings. The paint is perfect, just a few rock pits in the front bumper/skirt, shines like new. Interior leather is also in like new condition. The original owner upgraded the sound system will better speakers all around and it would seem a subwoofer in the trunk. The subwoofer is gone, but all the wiring is in place, high and low level signal wires, a subwoofer control wire, as well as power wires for an amplifier. A new radio head unit  has been installed, Pioneer Z3 CD DVD GPS 7" touchscreen with built in 40GB hard drive which holds your favorite music ripped from each CD you play. Last thing is the headlights are now HID as well as the Fog lights, really lights up the road.

If you do not know this car, the 2004-2006 Pontiac GTO, let me give you what history I know. Released first in '04 as a joint effort between GM and Holden of Australia, a big name in road racing of sport coupes there, it was to bring a muscle car to compete with the Mustang. It was only made for these three years, but was planned to move onto the G6 platform when the recession hit and Pontiac was gone. In '04 it was fitted with the LS1 Corvette engine.

In 2005 the car was upgraded to the LS2 engine, more displacement and more horsepower. Unfortunately the car was a bit over powered, for the 2005-6 have a problem in the 'Launch' and the rear wheels will have a tendency to jutter, jump, shudder however you want to describe it. SO, if you are looking at other 2005-6 production years, look for some resolution having been install, most owners did nothing it seems. There are a couple of routes to attempt a fix, I have heard that heavier axles works, but the solution on this car does work. The decreases spring throw, -1.5", and the +2 spring rating increase combined with Koni Shocks not only makes a smooth wheel spinning launch, makes the  car handle really flat. Of course the 10.5" wide rims and tires help that out  also.

The other thing to look for in these cars is the seat corners, both front and back, that face the exterior of the car. I do not know what Holden used to stitch these seats together, but it does not do well with UV light. In most examples of this car, these seams threads have broken open, but not on this car, all the seats are perfect except the rub on the drivers waist bolster from getting in and out of the car. Also the headliners sometimes come unattached from heat, but again, not this car. From the CarFAX, It spent its life in North Carolina, a single owner, and from the looks of it, in a garage. The owner may have been in the Armed Services, for there are periods on the CarFAX where the car had no miles put on it. One thing is for sure, it was pampered.

Online Find: 1970 Pontiac Firebird Concept, cousin of the Weinermobile

Thu, Mar 26 2015

So there's this for sale over at Hemmings: the 1970 Pontiac Firebird One concept designed by Harry Bentley Bradley and built by Dave Crook. For sale at the time of writing in Bellevue, Washington for $94,950, most of the seller's description appears to be pulled from a 2001 Barrett-Jackson listing, when the car was sold at auction for $61,600. Before we get to the car, it helps to know the man behind it: Bradley was a designer at General Motors from 1962 to 1966 who, against company policy, continued to submit designs to Hot Rod magazine under an assumed name. Mattel poached him in 1966 to design its brand new toy line called Hot Wheels, and Bradley designed all of them except one. He only stayed at Mattel for a year because he didn't think Hot Wheels would be successful, then left to start his own design company. Among other works, he penned the most recent example of the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile. Now can you see the Firebird One's design language? Since it apparently has a letter of documentation from GM design staff, we'll assume that GM asked the then-freelancing Bradley to work some magic on its muscle car, this being the totally Hot-Wheels influenced result. There are 17,456 miles on its 255-horsepower, 350 cubic-inch V8. The interior has tan leather, custom bucket seats, a wood grain dash, and one of the most awkward spare tire placements ever. The seller assures all prospective buyers that it is, like the Death Star, "fully operational."

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.

Baseball team to dress like Trans Am, complete with screaming chicken

Fri, Feb 8 2019

Come to think of it, the Screaming Chicken actually sounds like the name of a minor league baseball team. Well, it isn't, but the famous logo of the same name that graced the hood of the 1970s Pontiac Trans Am will at least be making it to a baseball uniform this summer. The Lansing Lugnuts, a Single-A affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays, will be rocking these special uniforms to honor the late Burt Reynolds and his film Smokey and the Bandit. By default, it will also be honoring the car the movie made famous: the 1977 Trans Am painted black with gold trim and, of course, the screaming chicken on the hood. This is a pretty good history of the emblem. So why the Lugnuts and Burt Reynolds? Although he claimed to be born in Georgia for much of his career, he admitted in a 2015 autobiography that he was in fact born in Lansing, Mich. After a few years, his family settled in Florida. Not exactly hometown hero stuff, but minor league baseball promotions have been made of more tenuous connections. The Burt Reynolds tribute night will be July 20, and if you want to get a screaming chicken jersey for yourself (I mean, wouldn't they be perfect for a cars and coffee?), the game-used jerseys will be auctioned off for charity after the game.
