Here is a super Rare 1967 Firebird HO convertible. Pontiac got into the Pony car race late in 1967, with its offering the Firebird.  These cars came with 3 V-8 options, the standard 326, which came with lower compression ratio and 2 barrel carburetor, the 400, and then the 326 HO, which featured 10:5:1 compression, 4 barrel carburetor, and dual traction bars.  There were only 6078 HO's built in 1967, and only around 1000 convertibles, making this a super rare option for the firebird.   This car is in super nice shape, but is not perfect.  If you are looking for a trailer queen, this is not your car.  This car is in great shape shape for being 46 years old.  Car was originally burgandy, but was repainted Tyrol Blue.     I purchased this car about 7 years ago, and finished it. This car is a correct numbers matching car.  I say correct numbers, because the motor was replaced under warranty, in 1967 by Pontiac.  All engine casting numbers are correct and all correct date coding.  Block is stamped S.R. for service replacement.  Motor was replaced with a long block.  The engine still maintains its original 141 casting on the Heads, original intake, original carter AFB 4243S, original Distributor, original style long branch exhaust manifolds, and original air cleaner.  Car has original 3 speed manual transmission.  Manual ivory convertible top.  Deluxe Parchment interior. Interior was replaced about 4 years ago, and some dummy (Me)  sat down in the drivers seat with a screw driver in my back pocket, and put a small hole in it.  Dash Pad is original to the car, and does have two cracks in the top.   Complete PHS (Pontiac Historical Society) documentation.  Since I have owned the car, I have pulled the engine, and completely resealed it.  I installed new timing chain, oil pump, water pump, and radiator.  Carburetor was completely rebuilt by Classic carburetors out of Eden, NC.  Transmission was completely resealed.  New tires,  new brakes, and new master cylinder.  New clutch.  Engine and front lighting harness' were also replaced.  Convertible top was replaced about 4 years ago, and show some light dirt stains, from being outside some.  Nice original pontiac ralley II Wheels with original style lug nuts.  New aluminized factory style exhaust. Dual traction bars (factory).  Car will need door glass adjusted some more.  There are also some scratches on the drivers side door glass, where the glass had rubbed on something inside the door previously.  There are also two dents on the passenger side door, toward the bottom, that should be able to be removed with out body work.  This car turns heads wherever I go.  Don''t miss out on your opportunity to own this piece of classic Pontiac history.  

I have tried to describe this car to the best of my knowledge.  Please feel free to ask any and all questions as i may have forgotten some things.  $1000 non refundable deposit via paypal is due 48 hrs after end of auction.  Please contact me within that time also to arrange pic up.  I will be out of town Thursday- Saturday next week.

Best and Worst GM Cars

Thu, Apr 7 2022

Oh yes, because we just love receiving angry letters from devoted Pontiac Grand Am enthusiasts, we have decided to go there. Based on a heated group Slack conversation, the topic came up about the best and worst GM cars. First of all time, and then those currently on sale, and then just mostly a rambling discussion of Oldsmobiles our parents and grandparents owned (or engineered). Eventually, three of us made the video above. Like it? Maybe we can make more. Many awesome GM cars are definitely going unmentioned here, so please let us know your bests and worsts in the comments below. Mostly, it's important to note that this post largely exists as a vehicle for delivering the above video that dives far deeper into GM's greatest hits and biggest flops, specifically those from the 1980s and 1990s. What you'll find below is a collection of our editors identifying a best current and best-of-all-time choice, plus a worst current and worst-of-all-time choice. Comprehensive it is not, but again, comments. -Senior Editor James Riswick Best Current GM Vehicle Chevrolet Corvette We were flying by the seats of our pants a bit in this first outing and my notes were similarly extemporaneous. When it came time to tie it all together on camera, I failed spectacularly. Thank the maker for text, because this gives me the opportunity to perhaps slightly better explain my convoluted reasoning. I chose the C8 Corvette because it's simply overwhelmingly good, and it's merely the baseline from which this generation of Corvette will be expanded.  While the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing (more on that in a minute) is an amazing snapshot of GM's current performance standing and its little sibling so enraptured me that I went out and bought one, their existence is fleeting. Corvette will live on; forced-induction Cadillac sport sedans, not so much. So while all three are amazing machines when viewed in a vacuum, the Corvette stands above them as both a reflection of GM's current performance credentials and a signpost of what is to come. So, given the choice between the C8 and the 5V-Blackwing right now, I'd choose the C8. In 10 years, when the Blackwing is no longer in production and Corvette is in its 9th generation? Well, that might be a different story. Now, just pretend I said something even remotely that coherent when we get to the part of the video where I try to make an argument for the 5-V Blackwing as best GM car I've ever driven. Or just laugh at me while I ramble incoherently.

AMC Trans Am Javelin SST, an ultra-rare underdog, is up for auction

Sat, Sep 9 2023

Among the rarest of the American muscle cars that went racing in the early Seventies — cars including the Camaro Z/28 and the Boss 302 Mustang — the 1970 AMC Trans Am Javelin SST may be the most hard to find, and among the most valuable. Only 100 units of this unique Javelin were produced, and one of them is up for auction at the Mecum event in Dallas on September 20. The Trans Am Javelin was fashioned in a patriotic livery of tricolor paint — red, white and blue — and arrived after the American Motors Corporation had decided in 1968 to compete in the Trans Am racing series against Ford and General Motors. The company's chief driver, Mark Donohue, would dominate the 1971 season, taking seven wins in his Javelin AMX and that yearÂ’s SCCA Trans-Am Championship. AMC took the trophy with 82 points, well ahead of Ford's 61, Chevrolet's 17 and Pontiac's paltry 7. The example listed for auction came equipped with a 390-cubic-inch V-8 engine with 325 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 420 pound-feet of torque, power steering and brakes, dual exhaust, BorgWarner four-speed manual transmission and Hurst competition shifter. Its “ram induction system” sealed a chamber around the air filter so that cool air from the functional hood scoop would be funneled into the intake. This JavÂ’s factory price was $3,995 — a mere $32,000 or so in today's money, though it was expensive by the standards of the time. The 100 Trans Ams were among 19,714 Javelin units built in 1970, so they started out rare, and today the surviving examples are highly collectible, if and when they come up for sale. No bid estimate is available yet. Related Video: Motorsports Chevrolet Ford Pontiac Auctions Automotive History Racing Vehicles Classics

How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
