Trans Am Ws6 on 2040-cars
Panama City Beach, Florida, United States
This car qualifies as near perfect and includes several custom items done in good taste that set it apart from the crowd. I purchased this car from a friend who ordered it new with all options checked. It has always been garaged and covered with a custom "California Cover" since new and has never suffered any mishap. No dings, scratches or damage in any way. If the Skull Graphics is not to your liking, it can easily be removed since it is a vinyl decal that I designed and have used for years in my business. I felt it fit the car and provided that subtle attitude. I will be more than happy to remove and will guarantee no damage. The custom pin stripes on the other hand are paint and were done by one of the foremost graphic artists in the custom motorcycle industry. They are perfect and definitely set the car apart.
I changed out the factory exhaust with a custom Borla stainless steel 4 pipe model. The car sounds great but is not loud. It increased power and fuel economy. You will also notice from the engine pictures that the suspension has been upgraded. The car is smooth, responsive and powerful. Couple that with the 6 speed manual transmission and this car is a joy to drive. Great clutch and responsive steering plus the optional traction control system keeps the car manageable in the most challenging driving conditions. I have all factory literature including the Deluxe large sales brochure. This car has always had Castrol Synthetic oil used and changed every 3500 miles or every year whichever comes first. All drive fluids and radiator fluid was changed within the last 1500 miles. Both T-Tops include the Sun Shade inserts and are in perfect condition. No water or air leaks. Feel free to call with any questions and I will make the car available for a detailed inspection if desired. Bill at 850 896-1266. |

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, 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.
Driving Notes
This GTO-El Camino mashup is the muscle truck of our dreams
Fri, Aug 31 2018There were a hell of a lot of great muscle cars in the mid-1960s, from the baroque Dodges and Plymouths of the earlier part of the decade to the wild big boys like the Boss 429 and Olds 442 W30. Right in the middle of the decade, two of the most iconic of the bunch emerged — the Pontiac GTO and second-generation Chevy El Camino. And this one is a 1964 Chevy El Camino with the heart and face of its GTO cousin, and dubbed the El Chieftain GTO. It's currently for sale at RM Sotheby's Auburn auction, with no reserve status or estimate listed. This looks like a product that Pontiac could have sold at the time — its builder, Ron Lindeman, did an excellent job making it look like a factory product, right down to the taillight strakes inspired by the GTO. It's powered by a 389 — a Pontiac motor that was actually found in period GTOs, but sporting a single four-barrel instead of the sexy Tri-Power setup. It is, however, equipped with a Hurst four-speed manual and the grille badge to prove it to bystanders. Even the interior is made up to look like a GTO. We wish there was more of a description of the build in the listing, but if you love it, do us one better and buy the thing and invite us to poke around it. We are very much in love with this muscle-truck mashup.

Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.
