1970 Pontiac Trans Am Ram Air Iii 4 Speed on 2040-cars
Ebensburg, Pennsylvania, United States
|
I purchased my REAL (not clone) 70 T/A in the spring of 1997. This numbers matching RAM AIR III, 4 speed was originally sold at Sally Pontiac in Johnstown, Pa. which is about 20 miles from our town. The car was stored away and not driven since 1973. The original owner sold the vehicle to someone who was going to restore the vehicle and he tore the car apart; 20 years later it was still in the same boxes. I bought the car and restored the vehicle (rotisserie car restoration) to better than showroom condition. The vehicle has 46,000 original miles and it has not been driven since 1973. This vehicle is PHS documented (Pontiac Historical Service) with the original invoice and build sheet. Including : Original Engine Full Rebuild, New Flywheel, Clutch, pilot/throw out bearings, New front suspension, all new body/suspension bushings, new brakes, brake hoses and hardware, new booster + master cylinder, New stainless steel brake and fuel lines, new interior with headliner, full professional exterior paint, correct refinished JW rally II wheels with 4 new tires, New radiator, original rebuild carb + generator, reconditioned original wire harness, PHS documentation with correct matching VIN / Body / Door Tags, New GM T/A Decals, 2 new GM OEM complete Door assemblies, Power coated all chassis black body panels including the 2 wheelhouse, Rad core support, etc., and much more.
We have been a Pontiac (until GM closed Pontiac) and Cadillac dealer for over 55 years, so I remember these muscle cars as new. We sold an identical car as this one new, but could never buy it back. From time to time I will feature another classic Pontiac from our stable. See 100 Pictures at http://www.jamesblackcadillac.com/classic/70ta.htm Thank You James E. Black Pontiac Cadillac 3929 Admiral Peary Hwy, Ebensburg PA 15931 814-472-9550 ext 302.
On Dec-03-13 at 14:55:58 PST, seller added the following information: Just to be very accurate the engine is the "THIS T/A's GM ORIGINAL ENGINE" 1970 400 Ram Air III correct engine size and code "WS" but the VIN # on the block ends in 86 (we are not disclosing the VIN # on the internet but to anyone who is serious bidder can call us 814-472-9550 ext 302 and get the full Vin # and a copy sent of the PHS documentation) the Vehicle VIN # on the Dash, Door tags, PHS docs ends with 87. The PA title also correctly ends with 87. With our past contacts at Pontiac we were told it has happens rarely that the engine on the TA (and other) factory assembly lines would get out of sink but it has happened. i.e. We have the correct WS Ram Air III engine for the car BEFORE our car - off by one on the factory line. This is the GM original 1970 error that was and has been in this exact TA since new. We just have the T/A engine before our T/A on the factory line. Bar Codes and tracking software did not exist on GM lines in 1970.

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.
GM recalling another 2.7 million vehicles in five separate campaigns
Thu, 15 May 2014The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles.
The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles - some of them the same models - but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago.
The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents.
Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?
Wed, 07 Oct 2009 DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.
