Horsham, Pennsylvania, United States
|
Bought back in 2012 when I returned from Iraq and Afghanistan for the final time as a gift to myself for doing five years over there. She is a beautiful Red on Black Lemans Sport will an actual 90,500 miles. She has her original 400ci motor bored .30 over with a mild cam, #13 ram air 3 heads, eldelbrock perform RPM intake with a 750cfm Quadrajet carb. A set of Dougs headers with 3in stainless steel exhaust. MSD solid state distributor with an MDS ignition box, 8mm accell plug wires, and E3 plugs. It does have an aftermarket TCI turbo 400 transmission that's connected to the original 12 bolt with 3.73 posi. Brand new 4 core radiator and 160 degree thermostat keeps her running no hotter than 170 degrees even in traffic in triple digit temps. The front and rear suspension have been completely rebuilt with polyurethane bushings and new shocks, springs and huge Hotchkis anti-sway bars front and back. Inside is a black cloth interior with bucket seats and center console. New Cooper Cobra tires installed last year with 255-55-15 up front and 295-50-15 out back. Power disc brakes up front with drums on the rear. Stops hard and straight. She starts up and runs all day long with no issues. Very reliable and fun to drive. Gets ALOT of attention everywhere you go. I don't really have to sell it, but with a 3 month old and a wedding to plan, my priority list has changed, and I can't see having a car that I don't have the time to enjoy and drive the way she deserves. This car runs without any issues and drives perfectly down the road. She will put a smile on your face everytime you take her out for a ride. She's not perfect but will not disappoint. I have this car listed locally and reserve the right to end this auction at anytime. Shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer, but I will assist in any way if needed. A non-refundable $500 due at the end of auction and paid in full within 72 hrs. Paypal, cashiers checks, certified checks or cash are all acceptable forms of payment. For more info or pictures call (267)844-3491 ask for Scott. Leave a message and I'll get back to as soon as possible. |

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible
Wed, Aug 1 2018The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
Driving Notes
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
