I purchased this car to fulfill one of my dreams.  I always wanted one and I have enjoyed working on it and driving it.  But I also have a growing family and will need to buy a larger house.  So, I need to turn this car into some cash.  I will be listing this locally, so I reserve the right to end this auction if I find a buyer.

The Good:
This is a solid, complete, virtually rust free car.  The numbers matching 400 runs smooth and strong.  It has a new Edelbrock 600 CFM electric choke carb.  I also have a holley double pumper no choke that will go with the car.  The TH400 transmission is not numbers matching, but period correct, and it shifts great also.  I believe it has a 3.55 rear end which is not original to the car.  It has a new aluminum radiator and runs reliably cool.  I also have the original Harrison radiator to go with the car as well.  Much of the work I have done to the car was to improve reliability and safety.  First, I replaced the lap belts in the front with a 3 point retractables and put lap belts in the rear, all with period correct GM buckles.  I replaced the 4 drums with power disk brakes on all corners.  It stops like a new car, maybe better.  I also rewired the car with an American Autowire Power 20 kit.  At the same time, I added power door locks, a viper alarm, keyless entry, and remote start system, and power trunk release.  The door locks are centrallized, meaning there are no switches.  When you move one door stopper, the other moves with it.  I could not bring myself to cut the door panels to add switches.  I also added a Retrosound radio with USB (USB is in the glove box) and Polk Audio speakers all around.  The rear 6x9s fit in the back deck and new custom kick panels hold 6 1/2s up front.  I slightly relocated the parking brake to keep it functional with the new speakers.  I still have the original kick panels if you want to take them out.  Dakota Digital analog VHX gauges in the cluster are new and very nice and clean.  While rewiring the car, I also put in a new battery, a 140 amp one wire alternator, and replaced the starter with high performance guts.  This is a factory AC car, but the AC is not hooked up.  There is a134A compressor on the car, but I did not make it that far.  And now I never will.  It looks new, but it is untested.  Everything else electrically works as it should.  I also have a brand new semi custom car cover to go along with it and some miscellaneous parts, such as an extra fan and fan clutch in case you want to swap out the flex fan.  The interior shows very well with no rips or tears in the seats, panels, or carpet.  It may not be perfect, but it is very good.  The paint is good but not excellent.  My goal was eventually to put a very high quality paint job on this car, but never made it that far.  I would say this car is a 10 footer.  American Racing wheels and the tires have about 65% tread left.  The car also has air shocks in the rear.  This is a very good and smooth riding car that goes and stops well.

The Bad:  This is an original vinyl top car. There are some small spots starting to form under the top.  They are not growing in size as the top is still sealed fairly well, but it will probably need to be replaced soon.

The Ugly:  The headliner needs some work.  I replaced the old smelly insulation in the roof with some foil type insulation from a hardware store.  It keeps the heat down and got rid of the old car smell, but I did not do a professional job replacing the headliner.  It is there and complete so maybe someone could do a better job than me.  Headliners are not that expensive anyway, just not at the top of my list.  The mileage on the car is unknown.  It showed 6700 miles on the odometer when I purchased it and that is what I loaded in the DD gauges when I powered them up.  It has about 7400 or so miles now.  The hood does not close fully at the back.  It may need new hinges or just an adjustment, not sure

I also have the 67 Pontiac Service Manual and PHS documentation to go along with the car.  I am sure there are other miscellaneous items as well that I am forgetting to mention.

I have more pictures and can answer questions upon request.

2.1 million vehicles recalled again over faulty airbags

Sat, Jan 31 2015

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Honda and Toyota will recall 2.1 million vehicles to fix faulty airbag modules "after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles." These vehicles had all previously been recalled, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that the airbags could still potentially malfunction. This recall will cover Acura MDX, Dodge Viper, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Honda Odyssey, Pontiac Vibe, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Matrix and Toyota Avalon models made in the early 2000s. NHTSA has reportedly received about 40 reports of airbag deployment in such vehicles, even though the vehicle had not been involved in a crash. Roughly one million of these same vehicles, all from Honda and Toyota, are also subject to recalls due to faulty Takata airbag modules, though this particular recall is for "an electronic component manufactured by TRW" that is separate from the actual airbags from Takata. According to NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind: "This is unfortunately a complicated issue for consumers, who may have to return to their dealer more than once. But this is an urgent safety issue, and all consumers with vehicles covered by the previous recalls should have that remedy installed. Even though it's a temporary solution until the new remedy is available, they and their families will be safer if they take the time to learn if their vehicle is covered and follow their manufacturers' instructions. A hassle is much better than a family tragedy." If you're the owner of an affected car, expect to hear more from the official automaker and government channels in short order. In the meantime, we'd suggest getting your car checked and fixed at your local dealer. The official statement and recall information can be found below. Previously Recalled Vehicle Remedies Not Working as Designed; NHTSA Announces Follow up Recall of 2.12 Million Cars and SUVs Saturday, January 31, 2015 Contact: Gordon Trowbridge, 202-366-9550, Public.Affairs@dot.gov WASHINGTON – U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx announced today the recall of more than 2.12 million Acura, Dodge, Jeep, Honda, Pontiac, and Toyota vehicles for a defect that may cause airbags to deploy inadvertently. The recalls will provide vehicle owners with a new remedy after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles.

General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem

Thu, Feb 13 2014

General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.

Another Burt Reynolds Trans Am is up for auction

Wed, Jan 18 2017

Fans of Smokey and the Bandit, your car has arrived. This Saturday, January 21, Barrett-Jackson will auction a 1977 Pontiac Trans Am clone that, while not originally in the movie, was owned and signed by the Bandit himself, Burt Reynolds. Not only that, but it packs many modifications that should make this Pontiac drive the way we all imagined it did. This is a Trans Am clone, not an original. The car was built by Nebraska company Restore A Muscle Car, and started life as a lowly Firebird Formula. However, the company brought it up to Trans Am grade and beyond. Under the hood is a fuel-injected 8.2-liter V8 from Butler Performance that Restore A Muscle Car says produces 600 horsepower. Coupled to the big V8 is a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. There's even Hurst line-lock on-board, so this Trans Am should be perfect for on-demand burnouts. The car also comes with QA1 coil-over suspension, so it should corner better than the original, too. The outside looks roughly like a stock Trans Am, but it now has 18-inch wheels styled after those from the movie car, and the shaker scoop says "8.2" on each side. View 5 Photos In 2014, a 1977 Trans Am owned by Reynolds sold for a whopping $450,000. That car wasn't an actual movie car either, and lacked the modifications of this one. However, it was used as a promotional car and was given to Reynolds, so it did have some history with the film. This upgraded car is listed in the Barrett-Jackson catalog as "no reserve," so it's going home with a new owner on Saturday, regardless of price. Related Video:
