1988 Pontiac Firebird Formula 350 5.7l Lt1 Fast!! Professionally Painted on 2040-cars
Gilbert, Arizona, United States
|
This 1988 Pontiac Firebird has had a lot of TLC and money put into it to make it a great car. While it is not perfect it is ready to be driven and enjoyed.
The exterior of the car is in nearly perfect condition with a NEW two stage black paint job that was professionally done. NO dings, dents or rust anywhere on the car. The old rotten weather stripping has been replaced to keep the car tight form the outside elements. The glass is all in perfect condition with NEW tint on the side and rear window to keep the sun out and give the car an aggressive stealth look. The old rotten rubber rear spoiler was replaced before paint with a NEW factory correct rear fiberglass spoiler that will last for years. The tires are brand NEW 245/50r16 Cooper Zeon all weather tires mounted on the factory aluminum 16" WS6 wheels. Under the Hood is where this car really shines. The original and powerful 5.7L LT1 has been fitted with Edelbrock aluminum heads, Edelbrock intake, Edelbrock headers, Comp RV cam, K&N intake, high volume injectors, Custom 3" exhaust with flomasters and exhaust cutouts, Accel ignition, and has been SLP tuned. With these upgrades this car would be right at home on a friday night at the drag strip but still be a great daily driver! The chassis and suspension have also been upgraded. The front struts have been replaced with QA1 fully adjustable struts, all the bushings have been replaced with Energy suspension urathane bushings, and all the wear parts have been replaced. The interior of this car is in average to good condition. The front buckets and rear seat have been reupholstered with black and carbon fiber vinyl. The carpet, gauges, dash, door panels, and plastics are all in good shape. The headliner is a little ruff but not horrible, the center console lid is separating but again not horrible. The stereo has been removed. Overall this is a great car that can be driven and with a little more TLC it could be nearly perfect. Its not a project car or a piece of junk, every time I drive it I hesitate selling it because of how good it looks and how fun it is to drive. The worst problems with the car is that the fuel gauge is not working, every now and then there is a check engine light which gives me a mass air flow code, and the fact that its missing a stereo Willing to work with buyer on shipping but I do need a deposit of $500 and a contact phone number within 24 hrs of purchase. Thanks for looking |

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC
Thu, 06 Feb 2014We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.
GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes
Mon, 31 Mar 2014When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:
Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
