This is a great car, I get compliments every time I drive here. The prices of muscle cars have been soaring lately with people paying $5000 and up for cars that aren't even running. And I can see as where sometimes that might be a great starting point if you're going to do a frame-off restoration; however, most of us don't have the time or the money for that.
I'm selling my 1971 Pontiac LeMans with a reserve of less than that. The car is in good shape and I drive it whenever the weather is nice. The car is over 40 years old and hasn't had too much done to it in that time.
The car is amazing and you'll love it. I won't waste too much time going into detail on why it's so awesome but I will spend some time listing some of the things that add character.
Points of Interest
There are a few rust spots in the usually places.
The drivers side rear was hit while parked and fully repaired with new oem replacements parts; however, the paint is not a 100% match.
The windshield is cracked.
The leather bench is starting to split at some of the seems.
AC is there and has been converted, but I always rode with the windows down. It may need a charge or it may need more.
The 8 track was replaced with a cassette deck in the late 80's.
The leather at the c pillars is coming unglued.
2 tires will need replacing in 5000 or so miles.
The brakes need to be bled.
I would do a complete fluid flush, prior to driving her and great distances.
All in all a very solid and original car. I have done some minor upgrades:
New shocks
2 new tires
Bottom end rebuild
New aluminum intake
New distributor converted over from points
New Fan Clutch
New Gauge Cluster
New Thermostat
New radiator hoses
New Belts
New Battery
New Plugs/Wires
New Carb
New booster
New Grant Steering wheel
New Front-End Bushings/Polyurethane Suspension Kit
High Mileage Oil

Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.
This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels
Sat, 14 Dec 2013We like cars, and we like art. Naturally, Chris Labrooy's Auto Aerobics series - computer-generated images of some seriously contorted 1968 Pontiac Bonnevilles floating in mid-air - instantly clicked with us. If the Pontiacs weren't floating or hollow, we could be fooled into believing the image is real. But where's the fun in that?
Check out the gallery we included of Labrooy's Bonneville art, and feel free too head over to his website for some Formula One humor.
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.
