Trans Am, "z" Code, T-tops, Pro Street, Built Engine, Drives Great, Fast!! on 2040-cars
Lusby, Maryland, United States
|
This is a beautiful 1978 t-top Trans Am, body is amazing!! Look at the pictures, all wheel well edges are still sharp and the underside is clean. Previous owner said it's the matching numbers 400 but I can't say for sure, so I've set the reserve as though it's not. I took a picture of the engine code from just under the passenger side head but I can't decode it anywhere, it looks more similar to a 455 code though, also the heads have a 5G casting on them which a quick search suggests 455 too. Whatever it is it runs strong with long tube headers and true dual exhaust, small cam, edelbrock intake, after market distributor. Automatic transmission shifts great (original shifter is in the trunk) and has a tranny cooler. Rear suspension has traction bars installed, someone was definitely building a mild pro street. Brakes are good. Lights, blinkers, wipers all work. Windshield is being replaced tomorrow, it has a crack you can't see in the pic. Heater hoses are looped back into engine so no heat right now, original AC car but no compressor anymore, radio not working but 6x9 speakers are installed in rear valance. I'll post more interior pics tomorrow, front seats are nice but not original,sorry about the garage pics but there is bad weather right now, I'll take better outdoor pics if it clears up. Paint is good. I took a quick buffer to it and shined up nice, a real buff job would make it real good. T-tops work great and don't leak, tires are great, new alternator and starter. Car is a blast to drive!! Tires are great, 205's in the front 225's in the rear. Reserve is very low!!! Before the auction ends please ask any questions you want, ask for pictures, come see it, bring a mechanic, I have nothing to hide! After the auction ends is not the time for that. Click the "shipping and payments" tab above to see what it would cost to get the Trans Am brought to you! I have tested the car and found no mechanical issues, however I will not tell you you can drive it anywhere, that's up to you. Recommend hauling. If you'd like to talk to me, send a message with your number and I'll call you. DATA PLATE: 78 2FS87 N 270908 74B A51 11L 11U 05D A31 WS4 CA1 9704?7 On Mar-17-14 at 16:13:17 PDT, seller added the following information: I've added more pictures but ebay will only let me put 24 so if you would like more send me a message with what you want to see and I'll send them to you privately. I put a picture of a little bubble starting, there are 3 or 4 of those but that is the worst. Windows go up and down smoothly, doors open and close flush (drivers door does sag a touch when you open it, but not enough to effect the opening or closing of it). Back right overhead seatbelt doesn't retract. Aftermarket Tach pictured is not hooked up. The seats in there are electric but not hooked up yet. These are things I noticed today when really trying to nit pick. |

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.
GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.
