This is my personal Car from my collection I am in a personal transition and selling a few of my blue chip
investment cars.
This is a VERY RARE Muscle car there are few that can say they have seen a REAL 400 4 speed HO Convertible ..
let alone have one
They made 91 of the 400 Ho 4 Speed convertibles, of them 4 were Trans Am Convertibles ( that sell for 3-5 Million
in this condition if they are availible)
the 87 400 HO cars left ( none TA) were seen as a sleeper from the factory and these cars were NOT Promoted and
even discouraged. Over the last 25 years I have found 17 of them from rust buckets to Prestine ( one in Fla is
WOW nice)
The only NUMBERS Matching car like mine I have seen sell is a Green on Green one in January 2010 that sold for
76,000 at BJ Scottsdale and lets be honest Green on Green not my flavor.
This car is a 1 of 1 Car
Why you ask
well other than the color combo which is rare!
This car is Drag Pak Car It has the Special Order 3.90 Rear end factory order with Tilt Steering. Both I have
confirmed with PHS are not normal on a 400HO
It is Power roof Car
Power steering
the interior is ORIGINAL
The engine has NEVER been out of the car .
The only thing not right on the engine is the water pump that was removed in 94 as it was leaking ( its in the
trunk)
Car has ALL The Ram Air parts in the trunk BRAND NEW. The same way the Ram Air cars were dleivered car was to the
dealers in 1969.
This car has NEVER left BC Canada .. I have known this car for a LONG time!
Sold new in 1969 to Ross He sold it to his sister in 1992, then after years of asking I got the car I have
owned her for many years and have ONLY 473 miles on it I start the car every 2 weeks .. I have the original
rims on the car I have removed the foose legends and sold them . the car is and was a Sleeper from the factory.
This car was a Special FACTORY ORDER car, I have talked to the man that ordered it new. It was so well optioned
with go fast items it was insane expensive and MSRP was OVER that of the 2 69 Trans Am Convertibles that also sold
in Vancouver BC
If you want a car you can NEVER replace this may be the one. Again Fly here and inspect the car you will be
glad you did .
Numbers
of the approx 87000 Firebirds built in 69
Approx 11000 were convertibles (1 in 8)
of the firebirds only 87 were 400 HO 4 speeds Firebirds
and 4 were Trans Am Convertible 4 speeds all Ram air
You see this is beyond rare
If this was a COPO Camaro BB 4 speed Convertible it would be $280,000 plus Firebirds are coming up in value and
this is one of the best they ever made.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.

2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern

Mon, 07 Nov 2011

General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.

This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.
