1969 Firebird Convertible Muncie 4 Speed, Trans Am Spoiler, No Reserve! on 2040-cars
North Lewisburg, Ohio, United States
This car has been in my family for the past 30 years. Car hasnt been on the road since the mid 80's. Restoration work was last done in 1999, been in storage ever since. Its had the floor pans, quarter panels and trunk pan replaced. Convertible top was installed 20 years ago. New dash pad and carpet were installed shortly before it was put in storage. Underside is undercoated, Front disc brakes, muncie 4 speed, mr gasket close ratio shifter (Hurst style), original rally wheels, Two front clips, two sets of doors missing the guts, one set of complete doors including door panels, maroon set of fenders and doors have bondo, the other sets do not. The fenders in the pics just have surface rust and are completely solid, will just need minor metal repair near the lovers/inserts, two trunk lids, two trans am style spoilers, one spoiler is warped its the one installed in the pics. Dash and inside engine compartment have been painted gloss black. Interior and front clip are not currently installed. I know I am missing a few things like the chrome front bumper, ingnition keys, steering wheel, and windshield. I have many more pics but can only put 24 on here. There are more pictures not seen here on my columbus craigslist ad, if you want to look it up. You know what your getting with this car, unlike some others that are nice on the outside but are hiding rot everywhere. No motor is installed, but I have a 400 motor with less than 1k miles that was in a tempest and ran 11's, its has a decked block, lightened crank, 69 ram air 3 heads, roller rockers, msd distributor, electric water pump, hooker headers, mallory promaster coil, and hyfire ignition. Engine was built by Rock and Roll engineering 475hp 500torque. I will include the engine for another $3k. Its a $10k+ turn key ready to go engine. The engine could use a repaint. I have pics of the engine being built and dyno sheet and will take current pics if there are interested parties.
Depending on how it is finished this car is easily worth 22 - 27k. Car is sold as is, I would guess there is a couple grand in extra parts. $500 non refundable deposit within 48 hours of auction end. Any questions please feel free to ask. Thanks!

David Hasselhoff's own KITT replica up for auction
Tue, 08 Apr 2014Depending on when and where you grew up, the name David Hasselhoff likely conjures up images of Knight Rider, Baywatch, pop singer, or possibly a washed-up TV actor, but one thing that can never be taken away from The Hoff is his connection to one of the greatest automotive icons in pop culture. The Knight Industries Two Thousand, usually shortened to simply KITT, was the real star of Knight Rider for many fans. Based on a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, the car combined snarky quips for comedy relief and stunts to provide much of the show's actions. Now, Julien's Auctions is selling Hasselhoff's own replica as part of a larger sale of the actor's personal memorabilia collection.
This recreation is based on a 1986 Firebird and comes with all of the tech on the inside that now seems hilariously outdated, like the yoke steering wheel and plethora of buttons. The interior also thoughtfully includes a voice box with over 4,000 sound clips from the show. With a 5.0-liter V8 and an automatic transmission, performance is likely adequate and period correct. According to the listing, this car was created by fans and given to the Hoff. Sadly, the replica doesn't convert to Super Pursuit Mode like KITT could in later seasons, and we most associate KITT with conventional front-hinged doors to go with the power t-tops and ejector seats.
Bidding currently sits $27,500 with eight bids, since starting at $15,000. Julien's predicts it will sell for between $30,000 and $50,000. If there is some nostalgia for KITT in your heart, there is still plenty of time to bid.
Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC
Thu, 06 Feb 2014We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.
GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
