Port Neches, Texas, United States

  I am listing this car for a friend. His contact information is at the bottom of this ad.

This all numbers matching, PHS documented Trans Am was built with the highly desirable combination of Lucerne blue paint and bright blue interior. It has been awarded Best Firebird at The Pontiac Southern Nationals, Best in class at the Pontiac Southern Nationals, Best in class at the American Pontiac Association show and has won too many other awards to list. Photos of this Trans Am were used by Trans Am Stripes.net in their advertising materials. Its history is known back to day one.

The car was sold new at Benafield Motor company in England, Arkansas. It has been an Arkansas and Texas car all of its life. It has traveled only 89,000 miles in its 43 plus years of existence.

This Trans Am was factory equipped with the Ram Air III 335 horsepower engine, M40 Turbo 400 automatic transmission, 3.31 Saf-T-Track rear end, D55 center console, A60 air conditioning, U63 push button radio with windshield antenna, U80 rear seat speaker, A01 Soft ray windshield glass on all windows, and B32 front floor mats.

This Trans Am has been extensively restored.

The mostly original, rust free body panels were stripped to bare metal, epoxy primered and treated to a two stage paint job using PPG products. NOS stripes were then installed.

The interior was restored to show condition using only correct materials. The original dash and console were restored by Just Dashes. New Legendary Interior upper door panels were installed.

The original engine was rebuilt, has great compression in all cylinders and runs very strong. The original transmission and rear end have also been rebuilt. This vehicle starts, runs, and drives like new. The A/C blows ice cold. All lights, electrical components, and everything else works, even the clock!

This Trans Am is:

1 of 3,196 Trans Ams built in 1970

1 of 1,084 produced in Lucerne blue

1 of 988 produced with air conditioning

1 0f 765 produced with air conditioning and automatic transmission

The block, heads, intake manifold, transmission, rear end and most other parts were born with this car!

Block casting code = 9799914 Block date code = C050 - March 5, 1970

This original, born with block and the factory stamped VIN matches the VIN number on the car

Head casting codes = 12 Head date codes = A280N - January 28, 1970

Both born with heads match with the same date code

Intake casting code = 9799068 and is the original born with intake manifold

Transmission tag code = PQ 1820 and is the original, born with transmission. The factory stamped VIN matches the VIN number on the car

Rear end code = COV (Saf-T-Track with 3:31 gears) date code = 0627G1 - June 27, 1970 Detroit Gear plant, first shift and is the original, born with rear end

Trim Tag = Build date 07C- Third week of July 1970–

**This is a very late built 1970 Trans Am! It's PHS ship date is August 24, 1970.**

Paint code = 26 – Lucerne Blue

Interior Trim code = 201 – bright blue standard interior

Wheel codes = JW date code on all 4 wheels is March 5, 1970 - they are the correct, born with, JW Code Rally II wheels

The 1970 only alternator brackets, power steering pump, pulley and brackets are still on the car.

The correct 1970 only thermostat housing is still on the car.

The correct, original, thin lip shaker hood scoop is still on the car.

The correct, original metal lower valance is still on the car.

I have over $12,000 in receipts including the following service items that were replaced. Many of the original parts, where applicable, are included with the car:

GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected

Tue, 20 May 2014

General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:
1,339,355 - Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia models from the 2009 to 2014 model years; Saturn Outlook models from the 2009 to 2010 model years

GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes

Mon, 31 Mar 2014

When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
