1969 Pontiac Gto on 2040-cars
Collison, Illinois, United States
Rear End: New Moser posi-traction unit with 3.73 rear gears.
Engine: Stock LS2 straight from the 2006 GTO. The only modifications are a cold air intake, full length headers and a dyno tune. I believe it was 376 RWHP. That translates to 450HP at the crank.
Transmission: Stock T56-6 spd straight out of the 2006 GTO.
Suspension: I just had installed a 69 GTO complete power steering setup, with heavy duty sway bar.
All new adjustable shocks with Eibach springs were installed front and rear. The wheels are American racing rims with new Hankook tires.
Body:
Metallic Pepper Grey paint job. The front bumper was just repainted a shade a little darker the body, with a hood stripe down the center, the same color as the bumper.
The inside of the car was rhino lined along with the bottom to prevent any corrosion.
Interior:
The 06 dash was heavily modified then recovered. It has the original power front 06 GTO black leather seats. The rear seats were modified and recovered in new factory black leather to match the front. A custom rear deck was installed with the working 3rd brake light from the 06. Custom rearview, interior door handles and dome light were milled from aluminum. Door panels, rear panels, kick panels, and headliner were made from scratch.

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.
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.
CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero
Fri, 26 Oct 2012At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."
