1998 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 5.7l Ls1 V8 Red on 2040-cars
Apex, North Carolina, United States

Selling my 1998 Pontiac Trans am .
The car is in rough COSMETIC condition , the passenger side needs attention to look great again. However, the engine is mechanically sound besides a minuscule oil leak. The car drives straight and true and pulls like it should. The tires will need to be replaced in the near future. The car is lowered and has 17" replica z06 c6 wheels. Besides that, it remains stock. The hood is an aftermarket ws6 hood and will need a repaint, the original paint job was done sloppily , looks good from 10 feet away. The interior is in OK condition, the usual condition of a 130k mile car. There are no noises from the rear end , transmission or engine. As far as body damage , the rear 1/4 , front fender, back bumper all need attention of decided. The drivers door is also stubborn to shut completely but will shut . Drivers window falls off track if turned down, have to use your hands to put back in place. The engine alone in this car is worth half of my asking price! Overall this could be an awesome project car for someone with a body shop connection or someone who doesn't mind the damage. Feel free to text me 919 815 1166 with anymore questions. NO tire kickers please |

General Lee takes on Bandit T/A in classic Hollywood car showdown [w/poll]
Fri, 26 Aug 2011You don't have to be born in the 1960s or 1970s to be able to recognize the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard and the Pontiac Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit. These old school four-wheeled stars seem to transcend demographics thanks to the miles of film that show the orange 1969 Dodge Charger and the jet-black 1977 Pontiac Trans Am performing seemingly impossible stunts.
The folks at Hot Rod magazine are obviously hip to this fact, and they put together a fun video in tribute of the instantly recognizable duo. Hit the jump to watch on as Sam Young and James Smith replace Bo Duke and The Bandit for a bit of dirt-road shenanigans in a pair of otherwise well cared for classics. We're not so sure we'd call it the best chase scene ever, but it sure looks like a lot of fun.
More importantly, which of these two cars would you rather own? Have your say in our poll below.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
