1967 Pontiac 400. I bought this to restore and have gotten all of the major stuff done. Between work, going back to school, and life getting in the way I just don't have the time or patience right now. My wife would like to get the garage space back too. 

I bought the car and had it shipped from the Seattle area. The body was extremely straight and in overall really good condition and there was no chassis/frame rust when I got it. The body of the car is 100% complete and finished. It has an original set of wheels on it with good tires. I have all the glass except the windshield. The car has the full front clip, bumpers, valence, headlights, tail lights, door handles, window cranks, wiring harnesses, steering wheel/column, gas tank, exhaust, engine, transmission, brand new car cover, and so much more. I also have a body bolt kit and interior/exterior screw/bolt kit. I can tell you much more detail about it if you're interested. Here is a list of some of the things I've already done:

Engine and Transmission:
-Pontiac 400 engine fresh from machine shop w/ receipts (Wills Machine Shop - Chamblee, GA)
-bored .60 over w/ brand new pistons and rings
-new bearings (rod, cam, main) 
-crank turned and journals polished
-Lunati 292 cam and lifters
-6x heads ported and polished, full valve job (also done by Wills)
-rebuilt Holley 750 carb
-engine block and heads painted OE Pontiac metallic blue
-Edelbrock performer aluminum intake
-GM Turbo 400 transmission
-new transmission pan (chrome)
-new chrome radiator
-all new gaskets
-new oil pump, new fuel pump, new water pump, new oil pan (chrome), new valve covers (chrome),
new breather (chrome), 2 distributors, cap, wires, 2 alternators, pullies, and much more

Body and Exterior:
-new paint job, gun metal gray metallic, has never left the garage
-new floor pans
-new 400 hood with inserts/scoops
-rear spoiler
-new front fenders and fender extensions
-new front shocks and coils
-new rear shocks
-upgraded rear multi-leaf suspension with traction bars
-2 layers of dynamat (sound deadener) on floor and roof, 1 layer inside the doors
-new body bushings
-disc brake conversion kit on front
-new door handles

Interior:
-new complete black interior to include OE style seat padding/covers, headliner, door panels
-new carpet with jute padding and rubber under layer for extra sound deadening
-dash and door interiors painted to match the body
-instrument cluster painter to match dash
-new sail panels and rear armrests
-new package tray
-original center console with wiring harness (excellent condition)
-original kick panels painted black
-new ignition switch, door/trunk/glove box lock set
-new window cranks

There is a lot more I have. The interior is done, the bucket seats just need bolted in. The engine is sitting on a stand. I just need to find the time to put the timing cover/water pump on and bolt the oil pan on and it's done. I'd estimate that 90% of anything you need is already here, it just needs installed (wiring harnesses, brake lines, fuel lines, etc). If you have the technical "know how" you should be able to get this up and running pretty easily.

You won't have to put much more in to be 100% restored. I'll definitely consider shipping it if needed. If you're local you are welcome to come take a look, email, text, or call me anytime with questions. I work midnights so I'm always up late and home during the day. Like I said, all the big stuff is done. It's the little things and getting it all put back together and finished that I just don't have the time for. It's unfortunate because I've always wanted a 1st generation F-body. Now is just not the time. I can email/text more pictures and I'd be happy to take video and send that too. The car is for sale locally as well.  Thanks for looking.

A YouTube video of the car can be found by searching "1967 Pontiac Firebird 400" and my username is rbell944

*** I would consider a trade for a Nissan 300zx twin turbo in very good condition.

Junkyard Gem: 2007 Saturn Sky

Sat, Jun 26 2021

The Pontiac Division didn't have long to live when the Solstice first appeared in 2005 as a 2006 model, and Saturn's head was inching toward the chopping block at about the same rate. Still, optimism reigned — at least, it did until the global economy fell apart — and so Saturn Dealers got a rebadged version of the Solstice to sell: the Sky. Available for just the 2007 through 2010 model years, slightly more than 34,000 Skies rolled out of showrooms before the doors were nailed shut. Here's one of those rare cars, found in a Denver-area self-service yard a few weeks ago. I've found a handful of discarded Solstices in car graveyards during the past few years, mostly with crash damage. This Sky endured a medium-hard impact in the right front corner, which sent it to this place. The 177-horsepower, 2.4-liter Ecotec still resides under the battered hood. The Sky Redline version had a turbocharged engine rated at 260 horses; we can assume that such an engine would be yanked and purchased by the first junkyard shopper that realized what it was. The base transmission in the Sky was an Aisin five-speed manual, but this car has the optional five-speed automatic.  The Sky had its own nose and some different badging, but otherwise didn't differ much from the Solstice.  For the South Korean market, the Sky got Daewoo G2X badges and was advertised as the ideal vehicle for high-speed chases through Seoul traffic. The same car went to Europe as the Opel GT. Sadly, GM ran out of money to make right-hand-drive Skies, so we never got to witness Holden or Vauxhall versions. Here's Bob Lutz describing the new Sky. Lutz really hated car names molded into plastic bumper covers, so he takes great care here to describe the genuine glued-on emblems. Related Video:

Michigan floods from breached dams consume Pontiac Fiero collection

Thu, May 21 2020

“WeÂ’ve never had an event like this,” Michigan's city manager Brad Kaye said in a Detroit News story. "What we're looking at is an event that is the equivalent of a 500-year flood." Kaye is referencing the catastrophic flood that occurred in central Michigan this week after heavy rainfall was compounded by two breached dams on the Tittabawassee River. Reports say the flooding forced evacuation of up to 10,000 residents, swallowed entire towns, and destroyed thousands of properties. No casualties have been reported, according to the Detroit Free Press, but car enthusiasts will be sad to learn a Pontiac Fiero shop and collection called Forever Fieros was decimated by the natural disaster. The Tittabawassee River is located about two hours, or roughly 140 miles, north of Detroit. It starts 20-30 miles further north and flows southeast as a tributary to the Saginaw Bay Watershed. Along the way, the Tittabawassee is held up by several dams, including the Edenville dam that failed and the Sanford dam that was breached during torrential downpours. According to NPR, the federal government took away the Edenville dam's license in 2018 and suggested it could not last through a major flood. Unfortunately, that prediction was proven accurate.  Forever Fieros is located in Sanford, Michigan, which is just below Sanford Lake, which is created by the Sanford dam. So when the Edenville dam north of Sanford broke, water from Wixom Lake flooded Sanford Lake, and a berm next to the Sanford dam was overwhelmed, according to MLive. Technically the dam did not fail, but the end result was the same: an entire town underwater. The Tittabawassee reportedly crested at 35 feet, or 10 feet above flood level and 1.1 feet higher than the previous record set in 1986. According to The Drive, the man in charge of Forever Fieros, Tim Evans, had time to attempt to save his vehicles from floodwater. He reportedly moved about 12 cars to a street that doesn't typically flood, but the water level was simply too high for that to matter. A floating pole barn also reportedly struck and damaged the  Forever Fieros building.  Worsening the situation is the fact that Evans was planning to hold an auction to sell many of the Fieros. As seen on Industrial Bid, he planned to sell 12 Fieros, Fiero GTs and a Fiero Formula, ranging from 1984 through 1988. The lots included a 1984 pace car, a Lamborghini Countach kit car, and a Fiero Cosworth Pontiac Super Duty 16-valve DOHC engine.

Junkyard Gem: 1989 Pontiac 6000 STE AWD

Sun, Aug 1 2021

During the middle to late 1980s, General Motors made a big push to grab back some of the sales swiped by makers of European luxury machinery during the previous decade. Around the top of the prestige pyramid, there was the Turin/Hamtramck-built Cadillac Allante taking aim at the Mercedes-Benz 560SEC and the super high-tech Buick Reatta trying to seduce away BMW and Jaguar shoppers; even the Riviera offered a futuristic touchscreen computer sorely lacking in anything out of Stuttgart or Bavaria. The General had a plan to take on the smaller German sporty sedans, too, and Pontiac of the "We Build Excitement" era offered a midsize sedan packed with modern hardware at a great price: the 6000 STE. Here's one of the rarest 6000 STEs of them all, an all-wheel-drive-equipped '89 found in a Denver-area yard last week. Any 6000 STE is extremely hard to find today; when I wrote about a front-wheel-drive 1987 6000 STE back in 2018, desperate owners of these cars filled my inbox with requests — sometimes demands —  for parts that continue to this day. Many of them pleaded with me to help them find an all-wheel-drive version, and now I have managed to find one at Colorado Auto & Parts in Englewood, just south of Denver (in fact, the same yard at which I shot the '87). You may recall CAP as the old-school yard whose owners built the amazing airplane-engined 1939 Plymouth pickup a few years back.  The all-wheel-drive system on the 6000 STE was introduced for the 1988 model year, and it became standard equipment on the 1989 STE. At this time, the automotive industry had taken note of the success of the idiot-proof all-wheel-drive systems offered by AMC and Audi/Volkswagen; Toyota began selling Americans all-wheel-drive Camrys, Celicas, and Corollas, while Ford offered the Tempo and Topaz with optional AWD and Subaru was just beginning to make the switch from manually-selected four-wheel-drive to genuine all-wheel-drive around that time (it took a few more years for everyone to standardize on the 4WD/AWD terminology we use today, though). The 6000 STE AWD was intended to compete with such all-wheel-drive-equipped sedans as the Audi 80 ($23,610), Audi 90 ($28,840), and BMW 325iX ($30,750); its $22,599 price tag (about $50,700 in 2021 dollars) certainly made it seem like a bargain compared to those cars. In addition to the all-wheel-drive system, 1989 6000 STE owners got a digital instrument panel and more switches and buttons than the Space Shuttle.
