Well the time has come for me to sell my baby. I've owned this car for 9 years but i need to sell it to fund another build. That said, I'm not tryin to get rich off this car like alot of people do when selling a vehicle. I'm asking what I feel is a fair price for this car. I know what it's worth and I would buy it for this price. That said, I will not take any less than $12,500 so please don't lowball me.

THE GOOD

This is a REAL ws6 car. It has stock heads that have never been off the stock bottom end making it a true cam only car. It also has the rare tan and black two tone interior that is in great condition for a 13 year old car. I have a huge folder full of receipts and documentation that comes with the car as well as the stock cam and valve train. This car was dyno tuned at texas speed after the cam swap (dyno sheets are included in paperwork). It made 394rwhp and 386rwtq thru a 12 bolt with 4:10's. These numbers were put down BEFORE the fast 90/90 setup, meziere ewp, 42# injectors, and more tuning. Below is a list of mods that I have done to the car over the years I've owned it.

Tires are 285 45 R17 Continental Contisport Extreme Contact up front and 315 35 R17 Mickey Thompson ET street radials rear

I'm sure there is alot more little things I'm leaving out.

THE BAD:

Unfortunately, an oilfield truck kicked up a 12" piece of a 2x4 which hit my front bumper. Thankfully the car was not badly damaged but the impact chipped the paint and put these ugly spider cracks throughout the paint on the bumper and license plate cover.  the drivers side ground effect needs to be repainted because I accidently hit it with a jack and chipped the paint. Other than that and a few stone chips from normal driving the paint looks great.

There is a small hole in one of the lower AC lines from rubbing on the front swaybar so you'll need to patch it or get a new line to have AC. It still blows cold but you can hear something leaking from that tiny pinhole in the line.

The gauges are off due to the stock rear end being reinstalled. I'm trying to find someone local with tuning software to fix this.

The 6" flip out screen has a lose wire or something so it keeps turning off but the speakers work fine when the deck stays on.

There's a rip in the drivers seat.

Small oil leak from drain plug.

Please understand this is a 13 year old hot rod not a brand new $70,000 corvette... it has issues as I have explained. It's a great ride and gets a lot of attention. I love this car so it is tough for me to sell her. I put a lot of time, blood, and money into it. I've described it honestly and accurately as I can. It is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.



I might be interested in PARTIAL trades as I need money for another build more than another car. Something bagged / air ride, 58-60 impala, 60's-70's cadillac, rat rod, lead sled, rock crawler, lowrider,  No bikes or boats, No junk or projects.

 

Serious buyers feel free to message me with any questions or offers. No bullshit please. I don't care what you "internet mechanics" think of my car.

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible

Wed, Aug 1 2018

The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?

Burt Reynolds’ former 1978 ‘Smokey’ Pontiac Trans Am in big auction by feds

Mon, Oct 21 2019

A 1978 Pontiac Trans Am once owned by Burt Reynolds as a memento of the car he drove in the film “Smokey and the Bandit” will be among nearly 150 muscle cars and luxury vehicles seized from the alleged perpetrators of an $800 million investment scheme that will hit the auction block this weekend in California. ItÂ’s said to be the largest single-owner car collection ever auctioned by the U.S. Marshals, seized late last year from Jeff and Paulette Carpoff, the founders of the now-defunct mobile solar generators company DC Solar. Two employees of the San Francisco Bay Area solar energy company, certified public accountant Ronald Roach, 53, and general contractor Joseph Bayliss, 44, both of the Bay Area. pleaded guilty Tuesday to participating in what federal prosecutors say was a massive scheme that defrauded investors of $1 billion. Both men agreed to cooperate in the ongoing investigation. While the Carpoffs, the company's owners, have not been charged, they agreed to let the government auction their collection of 150 classic, performance and luxury vehicles, including the 1978 Pontiac Trans Am once owned by Burt Reynolds. The replica of the car the late actor drove in "Smokey and the Bandit" and the other vehicles are to be auctioned Saturday, with online bidding already pushing the accumulated value past $5.5 million. Bidding on that Trans Am alone had topped $65,000 by late Tuesday. The auction company said it had been driven less than 3,400 miles. It's the largest single-owner car collection ever auctioned by the U.S. Marshals Service. Chief Deputy U.S. Marshal Lasha Boyden of the Sacramento office called it "a stunning collection of vehicles" that also includes 1990s Humvees, 1960s-era Ford Mustangs, Chevrolet Camaros from several decades, plus older cars including a 1939 Buick Roadmaster, a 1951 Chevy Thriftmaster 3100 pickup truck and a 1941 Plymouth Special Delux with wooden doors and trim. “It is rare for the U.S. Marshals to hold an auction of such a stunning collection of vehicles,” Chief Deputy U.S. Marshal Lasha Boyden in Sacramento said in a statement. ReynoldsÂ’ former Trans Am is a hardtop memento of the version he drove in the 1977 action comedy. It bears Bandit Run logos in the rear window and upper windshield and appears to have modified suspension components and bucket seats. It comes with a Florida registration with ReynoldsÂ’ name on it, and an autograph on the glove box that reads, “Be Safe!

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
