The car still retains it's original vin number matching 400. The intake was changed to that of a '68 model year and the carb was changed to a 4 speed version (7028273 XX 0569 this has been through a rebuilder at one time and all parts are not 100% correct). 4 tube headers were added with a custom 2 1/2 dual exhaust. other engine dress up items were also added. it runs well. the engine is backed up by the TH400 and a 3.55 open 8.2 rear.
The body is in overall good shape. the trim is in good shape. It looks to be an older repaint. the verdoro green paint is faded and some rust is present. some bubbles are on the drivers rear of the hood (the understructure is good and has not been "folded"), lower rear drivers door, and right rear quarter. there is rust at the wheel opening and wheel well of the pass rear. pictures are posted of these areas. the underneath of the car, frame, floors, etc. looks good. I replaced the trunk lid with a very rust free LeMans unit and added new reproduction GTO emblem. the paint doesn't quite match. I have the trim for the trunk lid and it's in good shape, as you can see it hasn't been reinstalled though. the rear bumper and bolts have been replaced with reproduction units.
The previous owner put alot of money into the interior. Both front door pannels and rear side pannels are new. The front and rear seat padding along with the upholstery is new. the carpet is new. the original head liner has some stiching comming undone in the right rear. a new headliner and material for the visors are included (not installed). the dash is in good overall shape.
The previous owner also replaced with new parts: power brake booster, master cylinder, brake hard lines, brake rubber hoses, front calipers, and brake pads.
I added 14x6 rally II wheels (not original '69) with new trim rings, center caps, and lug nuts. two new tires were also installed. the other two have about 50% tread.
I took a couple of videos, with a not so great camera, showing the hide-a-ways working, of the oil pressure guage, and a cold and hot start up and running with a quick walk around. they are not so great, but the best I could do with what I have.

David Hasselhoff's own KITT replica up for auction
Tue, 08 Apr 2014Depending on when and where you grew up, the name David Hasselhoff likely conjures up images of Knight Rider, Baywatch, pop singer, or possibly a washed-up TV actor, but one thing that can never be taken away from The Hoff is his connection to one of the greatest automotive icons in pop culture. The Knight Industries Two Thousand, usually shortened to simply KITT, was the real star of Knight Rider for many fans. Based on a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, the car combined snarky quips for comedy relief and stunts to provide much of the show's actions. Now, Julien's Auctions is selling Hasselhoff's own replica as part of a larger sale of the actor's personal memorabilia collection.
This recreation is based on a 1986 Firebird and comes with all of the tech on the inside that now seems hilariously outdated, like the yoke steering wheel and plethora of buttons. The interior also thoughtfully includes a voice box with over 4,000 sound clips from the show. With a 5.0-liter V8 and an automatic transmission, performance is likely adequate and period correct. According to the listing, this car was created by fans and given to the Hoff. Sadly, the replica doesn't convert to Super Pursuit Mode like KITT could in later seasons, and we most associate KITT with conventional front-hinged doors to go with the power t-tops and ejector seats.
Bidding currently sits $27,500 with eight bids, since starting at $15,000. Julien's predicts it will sell for between $30,000 and $50,000. If there is some nostalgia for KITT in your heart, there is still plenty of time to bid.
Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Generation 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.
GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
