Thank you for viewing my 2000 Pontiac Trans Am. I purchased this car about 2 years ago in New Jersey as a rolling chassis. There was no engine or transmission just a few boxes of miscellaneous parts. I am an ASE master technician who has worked at GM dealerships for nearly 20 years, and I wanted to build a custom Trans Am. The car has 99k on the odometer but that is only for the body since the entire drivetrain has been replaced with about 700 miles on it. The car is in EXCELLENT condition as you can see from the photos.
I purchased a NEW GM 6.0L crate engine from a dealer. The engine block, intake cover, valve covers, and coil brackets were painted GM corporate blue. I removed the heads, camshaft, timing chain and oil pump. Installed the heavy LS2 timing chain and gears, and the high performance GM oil pump. The camshaft is a custom Comp Cam 231 236 with .644 .613 lift and 111 LSA. New Corvette GM LS3 heads with upgraded .675 dual performance springs and retainers. Corvette LS7 performance lifters, chromoly pushrods, and the rocker arms are GM with the upgraded Comp Cam trunions. It has a NEW GM corvette LS3 intake, fuel rail, and fuel injectors, with a 92mm Holley Throttle Body. I installed BBK chrome long tube headers with off road y-pipe (No Converters) and Magnaflow Stainless exhaust. All of the accessories on the engine- starter, alternator, power steering pump,battery and the engine sensors are all NEW GM. it has a performance water pump and aluminum true dual core radiator with new cooling fans and a 160*f thermostat. The A/C is removed but the condenser is installed in the car to make installing the A/C easier if someone wants to. The transmission is a Brand New 4l60e purchased from BMR performance transmissions. It is a Stage 3 rated to 800hp. it shifts firm, not harsh, with the corvette servos. It has a Circle D performance 3400 stall torque converter. The rear axle is 3.73 posi with all new gears, bearings, and seals. The car was professionally dynotuned at a local speed shop with 473hp and 443tq at the rear wheels. Any conversion you use puts the engine horsepower well above 500.
The body has been completely buffed out, and the hood, rear lid and both bumpers have been professionally repainted. The engine bay was also painted and clear coated before the engine was installed. It has very few marks on it. The firebird on the WS6 ram air hood (WS5 car) was hand painted by a local pinstriper and clearcoated. It looks awesome and always gets a lot of compliments. I installed the Trans Am decals on the fenders, rear bumper, and the firebirds on the sailpanels. The interior is black leather and again in excellent condition. I installed NEW GM AC Delco window motors in both doors. The door panels do have the small cracks that all these cars have you can see in the pics, and the sunvisors are missing. The low and high beam sealed headlights have been removed and converted to 10000k H7 bulbs. I installed LED bulbs in the mirror, hatch, and marker lenses. The suspension is all original. The rims are in good condition with Falken tires with about 7 32nd tread remaining. It rides smooth. The brake calipers were painted red before installing the new cross drilled slotted rotors with ceramic brake pads.
I am listing the car as NO RESERVE and FREE SHIPPING! The shipping is only good in the lower 48 US states. A $500 immediate deposit by paypal when the auction ends. I accept cash or check, but the car doesn't get shipped until the check clears. Please don't bid if you don't have the funds. No trades. Thank you.

Junkyard Gem: 1968 Pontiac Catalina sedan
Wed, Aug 14 2019During the late 1960s, General Motors ruled the American car landscape, growing so dominant that the federal government considered antitrust action to break up the company. The General offered sporty Corvettes and muscular GTOs and rugged pickups and opulent Fleetwoods, sure, but the fat part of the sales numbers came from the bread-and-butter full-sized sedans and coupes, which boasted superior engineering and modern-looking styling; in 1967 alone, the Chevrolet Division moved 972,600 full-sized cars, and that's not even counting the 155,100 full-sized Chevy station wagons that year. Pontiac, Buick and Oldsmobile sold the same big cars with division-specific engines and bodywork, and they flew off the showroom floors. For 1968, the entry-level full-sized car from Pontiac was the Catalina, and I've found an example of the most affordable version of the most affordable big Pontiac for 1968, discarded in a northeastern Colorado wrecking yard about 50 miles south of Cheyenne, Wyoming. A '68 GM full-sized coupe, convertible, or even a four-door hardtop might be worth the cost and effort of a restoration, but a no-options base-trim-level post sedan with rust and plenty of body filler just won't get many takers these days. Like so many vehicles that sit outside for decades on the High Plains, this one is full of rodent nests. I wouldn't want to work on the interior of this car without a respirator and a lot of work with a shop-vac, because hantavirus is a significant danger in these parts. Alfred Sloan's plan to offer a stepladder of prestige for GM buyers, in which your first new car was a Chevrolet and you moved up through Pontiac, Oldsmobile, and Buick until you became sufficiently prosperous for Cadillac ownership, worked brilliantly for decades. In 1968, the Catalina was a notch above its Impala sibling on the Snob-O-Meter, with the sedan starting at $3,004 (about $22,600 in 2019 dollars). In fact, the V8-equipped 1968 Chevrolet Impala sedan listed at $3,033, and the Oldsmobile Delmont 88 went for $3,146, so the lines were beginning to blur between the relative positions of the lower-end GM divisions by this time. The base engine in the 1968 Catalina was a 400-cubic-inch (6.5 liter) V8 rated at 265 horsepower and enough torque to tow an aircraft carrier.
STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
Remember when Pontiac made a Trans Am Kammback grocery getter?
Thu, Nov 8 2018Despite muscle cars having strong reputations as some of the most impractical cars one can buy, they've occasionally had one of the most useful and practical features a car can sport: a hatchback. In the 1980s, General Motors' Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird had one, and it added respectable utility to the sports cars. But the people at GM thought they could make the F-Body cars even more useful. So, after a few clay-model experiments, Pontiac built three examples of an extended-roof 1985 Pontiac Trans Am Kammback concept. Spotted by GM Authority, one of these Trans Am Kammbacks (although "shooting brake" seems like the more apt descriptor) is going on the block at the Mecum Kissimmee auction in early January 2019. Reportedly only three of these prototypes/experiments/test mules were built to driveable specs, and this example, VIN No. EX4796, has additional history that might make it the ultimate example. According to Mecum, the show car, which has made appearances at numerous auto shows, also spent some time at the race track — just not as a participant. It was used as a pace car for PPG and IMSA racing and temporarily had a light bar and "two-way communications equipment." Following its pace duty, and after GM stopped the project from going any further, it was put into Pontiac Engineering's private collection for 13 years. Famous Michigan car collector and Pontiac dealership owner John McMullen then bought the car. He eventually sent it to Pontiac specialist Scott Tiemann for a full restoration to the gorgeous condition it is in today. As seen in the photos, the Trans Am features white paint over a gray leather interior. It houses a 5.0-liter V8 under the hood and has a five-speed manual transmission. The wild concept is rare enough to be super cool, but we can't help but think of an infinitely more practical, more modern, more powerful, and arguably more interesting car we'd rather have. Manual Cadillac CTS-V Sport Wagon in Black Diamond anybody? Or, if you don't care about the extra doors, perhaps the Callaway's Corvette AeroWagen is more applicable. Either way, we're in full support of any shooting brakes we can find. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
