I bought this car over a year ago and have had great fun with it. I don't drive it anymore because I'm 6'3", 220 and have a lower back problem. I fit just fine....its getting in and out that's tough. My son is 6'00" and he scoots the seat up when he drives it....just to give you an idea of leg room. I've gotten usually 26mpg with it unless I use the A/C. Then it drops to 21 or 22.

Since I've had it I've had only one problem with it. The control module went out. $35.00 for a new one and no problems since. When I got it, and story goes I'm 3rd owner, it ran good but was a bouncy, spongy ride. I put new shocks and idler arms on the front and new struts on the back. I had it aligned and it became a mad little go cart! It handles very well and is a blast to run through curves at speeds the law says you're not supposed to! Its a mid engine 2 seater that hugs the road without side sway and roll. Very fun and surprising. Its got 59,3xx miles on it. I have no reason to believe that's not original. I won't bore you with the history of the vehicle but it reportedly sat in the garage for 10 years after the first owner passed away.

 

V6 with the 4speed. Clutch is very good, shifting is a breeze. No gear noises or unusual sounds. Its not a "muscle car" by any means and was never intended to be (don't know what Pontiac was thinkin) but its low geared and very quick in the first 2. I never beat on this car but it will surprise you and others when you downshift and leap frog through traffic. Passing on the highway doesn't require downshifting unless you just want to. It IS a "sports car" according to Fiero enthusists and it rides like one too. You will notice bumps that you wouldn't in the family truckster.

 

Aside from whats already listed I replaced the battery earlier this year. I converted the A/C to 134a. Original refridgerant was still putting out cool air but not cold. It is cold now and I seldom use high unless in the 90s. More often than not I just open the sunroof. The tires are Goodyear Eagle GT II. They have 75% give or take tread left. I have not tuned it since I've had it but doesn't seem to need it. Exhaust sounds great and has no leaks. I have added oil only 3 times since I bought the car May 12'. 

 

Mechanically this is a 9/10. Only thing needing attention is the right headlight motor gear is stripped. You can unplug them and they stay open, functioning like normal headlights. I have ordered the rebuild kit and will try do it before you pick it up. Takes a half hour to do and is a $20 kit. The cruise control is not working. I ordered a troubleshoot/repair manual exerpt on it but I don't understand electrical. Cosmetically it needs paint. The clear coat is peeling in many spots. There are chips in the paint. I've tried to take the best pictures of it I could. The window seals are dry rotted and cracked. They don't let any water in the car so I never replaced them.  Sunroof does not leak either.

 

PW, PDL which are sticky, Power mirrors. Trunk release button inside. Stock AM/FM cassette. Sounds ok but was probably top of the line in 86' lol  Goofy sounding dual tone horn which may or may not honk on first try.

 

I've tried to list everything I can think of but if you have questions I will answer as quickly as possible. If I think of anything I have forgotten I will add to auction. Haynes repair manual and cruise control repair included.

 

Thanks for looking. Reserve is lower than the buy it now so bid with confidence that you're getting a good car at a good price. Bring a trailer or bring a driver. I trust this to go anywhere without problems.

Wanted: 1967 Pontiac GTO for a special Father's Day

Thu, 07 Jun 2012

Jim Sharp of Elkhorn, Wisconsin needs a red 1967 Pontiac GTO to make his dad's Father's Day, possibly his last one, something extra special.
Back in the '60s, Jim's dad, Ken, drove a cherry red 1967 GTO to California for a job. He met a girl, got married and decided his wife's 1965 Ford Mustang was more fuel efficient than the Goat and the GTO was sold. As the story almost always goes, Ken has had seller's regret ever since.
Jim always meant to find a 1967 GTO and, with his dad's help, restore it. But life got in the way, time slipped by and Ken was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and given about three months to live.

GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns

Sun, 05 Oct 2014

Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.

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.
