Absolutely gorgeous 1968 Pontiac Firebird convertible. Fully restored 6 years ago and continuously maintained and kept in enclosed garage. All of the following were replaced new: interior, seat covers, door panels, carpet and mats, wooden steering wheel, chrome rear bumper, coils, springs, shocks, black top and top motor, trunk liner and headlamps.

This California classic has standard A/C, 273 posi rear, 4 disc brakes, power steering and a new fuel pump/filter. The underside looks great with nice undercoat. New power top is easy to use and works perfectly. Has Alpine radio/cd player and alarm system. Wood grain center console.

The motor in this car is beautiful! Restored with a 60k mile 5.7L (347.8 cu in) LT1-V8 engine out of a 1993 Z-28. The motor alone was over $6,000. Noticeably more horsepower than original 350 or 400 engines. Runs very strong and puts off a vicious sounding exhaust. See below for more information on LT1 technology.

It is missing the ashtray in the console rear section ($50 eBay), and A/C fan is complete but not hooked up. Who needs A/C when you have a convertible?!

As is where is, buyer responsible for shipping costs. Best of luck bidding!!

LT1

In 1992, GM created a new-generation small block engine called the LT1, recalling the 1970 LT1 moniker. It displaced 5.7 liters and was a 2-valve pushrod design. The LT1 used a reverse-flow cooling system which cooled the cylinder heads first, maintaining lower cylinder temperatures and allowing the engine to run at a higher compression than its immediate predecessors. The 1992-93 LT1s used speed density fuel manangement, batch-fire injection and a dedicated engine control module (EMC).

This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels

Sat, 14 Dec 2013

We 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.

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am

Wed, 15 May 2013

When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.

Junkyard Gem: 2010 Pontiac G6

Sat, Sep 12 2020

What makes a discarded car a gem? Sometimes it's a car we all agree is very cool, and other times it's a car that tells us something about automotive history. Today's Junkyard Gem is the latter type: one of the very last Pontiacs sold, before The General shut out the lights forever on the storied marque after 84 years. The G6 was Pontiac's Epsilon-platform-based car, sibling to the Chevy Malibu, Saturn Aura, and Saab 9-3 (plus a bunch of Europe-only machinery). The very last Pontiac ever built was a white 2010 G6 sedan like this one (all '10 G6s were sedans, the coupe and convertible having been nixed in 2009), though that car was built in January of 2010 and this one came off the line in July of 2009. They build Bolts at the Orion Assembly plant these days. The higher-zoot G6s came with V6s or even V8s, but this car has "fleet machine" written all over it and has the base 2.4-liter Ecotec four-banger making 164 horsepower. Pontiac shoppers in the United States could buy the Vibe as a 2010 model as well, while Mexican Pontiac dealerships also sold new G2s (known as the Spark here) that year. The G6 was The Final Pontiac, though, bookending a run that began with the 1926 Pontiac Six. This one will go to its grave with the original owner's manual still inside. Even the cheapest 2010 G6s came with an AUX jack for the radio, a feature that was still maddeningly hard to find in rental cars a decade ago. This content is hosted by a third party.
