This is a 93 Pontiac Sunbird SE Convertible. The previous owner has diabetes and couldn't see well enough to drive and had to stop driving. He parked the car in his garage in 2004 and it has been there ever since. Please take a look at my YouTube video http://youtu.be/cMwZnruEeN4 (Just copy and paste to your browser) for some reason Ebay would not allow a click-able link.
Upon taking possession of the car last month, I replaced the fuel tank with a new one. I also installed a new fuel pump, fuel gauge sender, fuel hoses in the fuel module, and all three fuel filters. I cleaned the fuel injectors, installed a new battery and it fired right up. I changed the oil (with Pennzoil synthetic blend) and installed a new oil filter. I changed the air filter and plug wires to bring the car back to excellent running condition. I will provide receipts for all the parts I bought. I have been a mechanic for 30+ years, so rest assured that all the work I did is by the book. The engine runs smooth with no abnormal noises and no leaks. The engine is tight and doesn't have any exhaust smoke, even in the morning after the first start. The Trans also shifts smooth without any abnormal problems, and also doesn't leak. All the lights work, the radio and cassette player work fine also. The car drives fine, brakes work good, dash lights all work. The spare tire, jack, and lug wrench are all in the trunk. I also have some touch up paint I will include. Now for the problems. Due to sitting for so long, the power windows are stiff and need to be cleaned and lubed. The driver side window works ok but the passenger window needs help to go up and down. The rear windows try to move but I can't get them all the way down. The switches and motors are all working, the windows are just very stiff from sitting because the grease on the regulators has hardened. The power top is not working, most likely due to dirty contacts (from non-use) in the switch although I have not looked into it. The power door locks also don't work probably because of dirty switch contacts. The tires are usable, but they are different brands and not in perfect condition. If I were going to keep the car I would put a new set of tires on it. The AC doesn't have any freon in it. It might seal up once it has freon and has been put back into service, although, I cannot guarantee it. Often the hot oil circulating past the seals and o-rings causes them to soften and seal up. I originally planned to repair most of the issues mentioned above, but I decided to offer the car for a lower price in case there were some buyers who preferred a lower price and who could take care of the remaining issues with the car on their own. I am willing to entertain an offer that includes the windows, door locks, power top, and AC working. If the high bidder is from CA, I will get the car smog checked at a legitimate smog station and I will provide them with the receipt. Since the car will likely go out of state, I have not registered or smog tested it. Also, since the car has not been registered since 2004, it is no longer in the DMV computer, therefore, there are no back fees or penalties due. Out of state buyers will not have to worry about any of this. I will simply send you the title and a bill of sale. If you have any questions...feel free to email me. I will respond promptly. Thank you, Josh |

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
Steve McQueen barn find: Movie Trans Am surfaces after almost 40 years
Mon, Dec 17 2018An important Steve McQueen film car has emerged from barn storage. No, it's not yet another " Bullitt" Mustang, quite the contrary: The car in question is a 1980 Pontiac Trans Am, and it starred in McQueen's final film, " The Hunter." In the movie, McQueen plays a bounty hunter, and while in " Bullitt" he's quite the wheelman, that's not the case in this one. McQueen's character, "Papa" Thorson, is a horrible driver, and the Trans Am is far too much car for him. A chase sequence sees McQueen driving a combine harvester to catch the perps who are driving his stolen rental Pontiac, and the Trans Am ends up blown in half with dynamite, then returned to the airport on a trailer. The driver of said GMC truck and trailer combination, Harold McQueen (no relation), received the title of the first car used in filming, and for the following decades planned to fix the now-ruined car, but never got around to it. Instead, the 1,300-mile Pontiac wreck sat on a farm for nearly 40 years, until Harold decided to sell it to an enthusiast. There's studio documentation proving the car's pedigree, and stunt modifications can be seen in the Pontiac's floor and dash. While it's obviously in dreadful condition, the car remained more intact than the other stunt car the film crew blew up even more spectacularly — that car ended up as the pile of parts in the airport scene, and those bits and pieces were eventually dropped off at a junkyard after a Pontiac dealer refused them. McQueen did also drive a 1951 Chevrolet in the film, and kept that yellow convertible after filming was wrapped up. Sadly, he was diagnosed with cancer just a month later, after reportedly being in poor health during the shooting, and passed away in December 1980. The yellow Chevy stayed with his estate for some years, later getting restored and auctioned. Right now, it's not clear what the Trans Am's fate will be. The car's current owner, Calvin Riggs from Carlyle Motors in Katy, Texas, wants to know more about the Trans Am and the film shoot: His post on Hemmings includes a lot of information, but more would be useful.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
