1977 Pontiac Can Am Plus 2 Can Am Parts Cars on 2040-cars
This auction is for a 1977 Pontiac Can Am and two Can Am parts cars plus many extra parts. I purchased the car from the man in California that bought it new. It is complete and in good shape but it needs to be restored. I have done nothing with the car but move it into the shop and start to clean it up. It has one small rust spot on the right rear quarter just below the louver window about the size of a half dollar (just bubbled up). There is some rust on the right front corner of the hood, not bad, certainly repairable but one of the parts cars has an excellent hood. There's a little rust staining around the back window that needs to be cleaned up. The interior needs to be redone. Its all original and it needs repair. The padded dash is cracked, as all of them are. The following is what the original owner had done to it recently: " Less than 5k on Dave Smith Olds Performance rebuild Dyno'd at 300+ hp. Edlebrock performer manifold, cam, upgraded rocker arms, ported heads, headers with true dual exhaust (2 cats and double hump trans crossmember. Turbo 350 trans with less than 10k on it. Rebuilt rochester carb from Summit racing ready to install." So mechanically she's in pretty good shape. This is a 403 Olds engine car, one of 43 reportedly made that year. The tires hold air and have lots of tread but are dry rotted. The battery was old and finally dead this year. The parts cars: They are both Can Ams. One is another 403 Olds engine car and the other a 400. They are relatively complete and roll around. One has been wrecked at some point and has an earlier model Lemans front clip on it. Both have lots of parts stored inside. The 403 parts car has some exterior rust but the floor boards are in great shape. The other car has some exterior rust as can be seen in the pictures. The 400 car drove up on my trailer when I picked it up in Iowa at -10 below zero. The 403 car I winched up on the trailer. Extra parts: There are two stripe kits, 1 GM NOS and 1 Stencil & Stripes after market. There are two instrument clusters with tachometers. There's a spare clock with surrounding bezel. There is a piece of a roll of Firethorn red upholstery and a larger roll of white to redo a white set of seats. One of the parts cars had a white interior. There is a front header panel off of a Grand Lemans. There are one or two sets of extra wheels. Trim pieces. Heater/ac controls. Mechanical pieces. Power window motors. And a bunch of other stuff... Yes, there's a lower quarter panel new in a box too.
All three cars have titles and other documentation. I'm sure I'm forgetting somethings but that's it in a nutshell. I've come to the realization that I'll never have the time to restore one or two of these cars and so I am going to sell them. Yes, I'm probably going to lose my butt on this deal but that's the way it goes. So here's the opportunity to buy one that you can be driving around pretty quick with two parts cars to build another or mine of parts down the road. Now for the business end of the deal: These cars are old and used and as such will sell "as is". Ask questions, we answer. We may not know the answer but we'll tell you so! Check our feedback, we tell it like it is. Look at the pictures and ask for more if you need them. The buyer will be responsible for picking them up or arranging shipping. I will be glad to assist the buyer or shipper in getting them safely loaded for transport. At the close of the auction we will require a $500 deposit through Paypal within 24 hours. The balance due can be paid in cash or by bank transfer within 72 hours. We would like the cars to be moved within 30 days but will work with the buyer should some extra time be needed. Please bid only if you can afford to pay. Let's keep this auction fun and easy for all concerned. The cars are for sale locally and we do reserve the right to end the auction should a local buyer purchase them. Thanks for looking and good luck with your bidding. |

AMC Trans Am Javelin SST, an ultra-rare underdog, is up for auction
Sat, Sep 9 2023Among the rarest of the American muscle cars that went racing in the early Seventies — cars including the Camaro Z/28 and the Boss 302 Mustang — the 1970 AMC Trans Am Javelin SST may be the most hard to find, and among the most valuable. Only 100 units of this unique Javelin were produced, and one of them is up for auction at the Mecum event in Dallas on September 20. The Trans Am Javelin was fashioned in a patriotic livery of tricolor paint — red, white and blue — and arrived after the American Motors Corporation had decided in 1968 to compete in the Trans Am racing series against Ford and General Motors. The company's chief driver, Mark Donohue, would dominate the 1971 season, taking seven wins in his Javelin AMX and that yearÂ’s SCCA Trans-Am Championship. AMC took the trophy with 82 points, well ahead of Ford's 61, Chevrolet's 17 and Pontiac's paltry 7. The example listed for auction came equipped with a 390-cubic-inch V-8 engine with 325 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 420 pound-feet of torque, power steering and brakes, dual exhaust, BorgWarner four-speed manual transmission and Hurst competition shifter. Its “ram induction system” sealed a chamber around the air filter so that cool air from the functional hood scoop would be funneled into the intake. This JavÂ’s factory price was $3,995 — a mere $32,000 or so in today's money, though it was expensive by the standards of the time. The 100 Trans Ams were among 19,714 Javelin units built in 1970, so they started out rare, and today the surviving examples are highly collectible, if and when they come up for sale. No bid estimate is available yet. Related Video: Motorsports Chevrolet Ford Pontiac Auctions Automotive History Racing Vehicles Classics
Autoblog Classifieds finds: 1987 Pontiac Fiero GT
Tue, May 15 2018Autoblog's free Readers' Used Car Classifieds section is a great place to list your car for sale, and because these are readers, they often list really interesting cars. Occasionally we find interesting listings, and tell you what's special about them. This 1987 Pontiac Fiero was listed for sale at the time of this writing, but if the listing expires by the time you read this, feel free to browse for other great finds. Thirty years after General Motors stopped building it, the Pontiac Fiero might have finally emerged from the darkness. First, it was a humble commuter car that just happened to be a mid-engined coupe, then it was a re-skinnable basis for Fierorraris or other slightly strange kit cars, and then it made some Worst Cars of All Time lists due to its econobox ingredients, including its Chevy Citation suspension parts. But after a few decades, even the most mediocre car will become interesting as most of the examples built have been run into the ground; why not then the Fiero? The story of the Fiero is paralleled by a number of GM products, as it improved constantly the longer it was built, and by the time of the last model years it was quite decent indeed. And then the plug was pulled. The Fiero might not be a Toyota MR2 or even a Fiat X1/9, but it was made in two body styles, the notchback and the fastback, the latter of which looks especially good now. The Fiero also remains quite affordable, and the plastic body panels do not rust, unlike with the two aforementioned cars. This 1987 car advertised for sale at Autoblog Classifieds does not yet benefit from the 1988 cars' improved suspension, but thanks to its low, low 47,000-mile odometer reading, it looks to be in tip-top shape. The automatic transmission is just the three-speed affair, though, rendering the V6 car here more of a cruiser than a fiery hot canyon carver. Perhaps that has contributed to its good condition, along with the lack of possibly leaky T-tops. Could the Fiero have aged better than your Hall & Oates tapes?

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys
Mon, 10 Jun 2013According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.
