I bought this car about four years ago and in that time I have only done about 2000 miles. I really don't get the time to drive it so its just been sitting in my garage. The car includes a lot of original paperwork including factory manuals and a log book in which the original owner documented every time he added fuel, serviced the car, etc. The car has 36,400 original miles and is in great condition - no rust and could easily make a daily driver. The handling is great and true, the breaking smooth and the engine runs and sounds great with the flomaster pipes. The interior, paintwork, engine, drive, wheels are all completely original and solid. The interior is unbelievable and tthe T-Tops remove easily. The photos do not do this car justice. The original cassette sounds like you'd expect and theres even a free cassette with 80s music.
This is a 33 year old car and in fantastic condition, passes smog easily. However there are some minor that can be dealt with easily.
- From cold the car can sometimes takes a couple of starts. I think the choke needs tuning. It always starts immediately when warm.
- I removed the firebird and had the plastic chrome side trim removed. I believe the firebird can easily be replaced.
- Electric windows are a little slow.
- The middle turbo light doesnt work - I believe the cable was cut but never bothered with it. (doesn't affect turbo)
- The gear selector bevel cracked in the LV heat - it could with fixing a little nicer or replacing.
For a 33 year old car these really are minor issues - the car looks, drives and sounds great. A real head turner.
Pleas contact me with any additional questions, inspections welcome. I will not provide shipping however if you wish to arrange this yourself I will work with you.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way
Tue, 21 Feb 2012There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.
How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
