Hate to do this , but I'm gonna sell my Pontiac . Had no intentions to sell my pride and joy , but i have recently come across an opportunity that would best serve myself and my family , and the money from this sale will do exactly that . Here we have the perfect example of a True all American Muscle car . Rare 1964 2 door post Pontiac Tempest Custom , up until about a month ago it had the original 4spd muncie in the car , but i removed it to put an automatic transmission so that my wife could enjoy the car as well . Hold on don't panic ! I still have the original numbers matching muncie 4spd to go with the car . Engine in the car is believed to be the original 326 numbers matching as well . Original bench seat car too , special ordered paint . This is a rare find , car does have issues as any 50 year old car should have . Does have body filler under the red primer , does have rust . Floor pans and trunk pans will all need repairing , very much repairable in my opinion . It does run and does drive , but not yet street worthy . Still needs blinkers , brake lights , etc worked on , carburetor cleaning and adjusting , runs rough like it needs a tune up . Car does have a nice cam , nice cam sound , not sure of the cam size but sounds nice , hooker headers , 4 barrell carb , new BeCool radiator . New ball joints and bushings in front suspension , . Too much to list , . I also pulled the vin with PHS and it comes back to being an original 326/ 4spd car , I have all the documents to prove . For the more serious bidder I can fax the docs over . I'm gonna take a huge loss on this car as it is , and im not gonna give it away any cheaper then my reserve . Non-refundable deposit of $500 due within 24hrs , and balance due within 3 days after auction ending . Balance to be paid in cash in person or certified check , funds must first clear before releasing the car " No Exceptions " . Buyer is responsible for paying and arranging shipping from zip code 78389 .

CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero
Fri, 26 Oct 2012At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."
Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you're an automotive engineer being tormented by an immortal being made of fire, then wouldn't you think it best to have a custom coupe called the FireBreather for your getaway car? That's the FireBreather in the image above, adorned by the red wings that once fronted the Pontiac Firebird, running away from a black cloud of evil in a trailer for the movie Jinn.
The Jinn is eternal evil, always waiting for the chance to make things float across rooms before going on homicidal urban rampages. The FireBreather is a Gen-V Chevrolet Camaro - from the V6 to the ZL1 - that's been through Classic Design Concepts' extensive list of exterior and interior modifications, including entirely new front and rear fascias and side skirts, sway bars and springs, Pirelli P Zeroes and an available Edelbrock supercharger.
The movie - FireBreathing chase scenes and all - was shot in Monroe, Michigan. You can watch the trailer below, but since the FireBreather only get a couple of seconds on screen, you can find out more about it on Street Legal TV and its official site.
