You are bidding on a documented 1969 Pontiac Firebird HO/Ram Air 3, M-21 Close Ratio 4-speed with 3.90 posi. The car has 83,000 miles on the original WQ numbers matching 400 that has not been rebuilt, numbers matching M-21 trans that has not been rebuilt and the original Safe-T-Track 3.90 posi ZK rearend that has not been rebuilt. All the sheet metal is original polished, bumpers (re-chromed) and molding are all original (emblems are new), hood tach, original exhaust, new interior, recently re-painted correct Windward Blue. The carburetor is the only thing missing from the car as it is a clone carb with the right numbers. The past owner said that he had a new carburetor car put on it just before the car was parked and unfortunately didn't have the original. The carb that was on the car is a correct replacement carb that I still have (1968 RA Carb). I found the car around the corner from my house covered in ivy and untouched for over thirty years. The car was put back together using all the original parts that were cleaned up, painted and put back on. According to the last owner I am the third owner as he was the second and the original owner was an older women. The second owner bought the car in high school and drove it until the clutch went out at which time it was parked and not moved for thirty years...lucky find for me!!! The car is one of 563 HO/Ram Air III Manual 1969 Firebirds. It is also one of less than 70 Firebirds that would have been optioned with the M-21. I am not sure how many Firebird Ram Air 3 cars had this. I do know that there were only 113 cars built with the m-21 and 46 of the were Ram Air 4's. I have all the PHS documentation for the car but the car didn't have the build sheet. The car drives perfect and is driven around the local town and to shows regularly. It runs and drives perfectly. The only engine work that was done is I installed new gaskets, new bearings, and had the heads freshened up. Everything else is untouched. No boring, no honing, all original components. The bearing were only replaced because it just seemed like the logical thing to do since the engine had 80k miles (probably wasn't necessary). The engine has 175-180 cranking pressure in the cylinders and doesn't leak or burn any oil and doesn't smoke a bit. Runs Perfect!I replaced the clutch with a dual friction centerforce. Let me know if you have any questions. Buyer would be responsible for all shipping and a 500 dollar deposit is due within 24 hours of the auction ending. Thanks!

My numbers about the M-21 specs wrong. According to my research there were no Ram Air 3 Trans Ams with the M-21, only the 4. So out of the 113 M-21 cars in 1969 in the RA3 model they must have been Firebirds. Either way very rare.

Also, I added a picture of the stereo system installed under the package tray and a few others. The stereo is bluetooth so that it works with your smartphone and the remote under the dash is also removable during car shown since it is only velcroe holding it in place. No cutting was done to install this system. The picture of the car on the trailer is how it looked after it was pulled out after 30 years.

Will consider trades for steel 34' Ford.

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll

Tue, 25 Feb 2014



588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.

1969 Pontiac GTO Judge vs. 2006 GTO, which Goat gets your vote?

Mon, 08 Sep 2014

The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own.
Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel.
The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile

Sun, 29 Apr 2012

Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
