Stunning 1973 Pontiac Trans AM. All original car that was treated to a high end rotisserie restoration that started in 2005. The car has competed in many car shows and received a second place silver in its class(stock restored muscle cars 1967-1975) at the nationally recognized  Keels and Wheels Concours event in Texas in 2009. The winning car was a just completed Hemi powered Superbird...hard to beat!  This car comes with complete owner history including a title dated 1978 showing the cars mileage at 63400 miles. The car was restored by a retired bodyman who searched high and low for a Trans Am that still retained all of its original drivetrain. He then went about a complete mechanical and body restoration using NOS parts where necessary including body panels. I have pictures of the restoration. Again, this car is stock with the exception of a slightly higher performance cam and a beautifully done magnaflow exhaust system. The restoration is holding up very well, but I recently noted that the front nose, where it meets the middle of the hood, has some paint checking starting to appear...a common issue with the endura nose( see pictures). Other than that, the paint is incredible and the car has no other paint flaws. The chassis is highly detailed including inspection tags and correct red oxide paint. Mechanically the car performs well and has a lot of power thanks to the  slighly hotter than stock cam installed when car was restored. I think the '73 is the best looking of the early 70's Trans Am and this car is stunning in Cameo white with the blue Firebird on the hood and deluxe burgandy interior. Car is highly optioned as shown in the included PHS docs including tinted glass, power windows, rear defrost, a/c, console, factory 8 tape player, am/fm stereo, and the custom trim group. The ram air does work on this car though the sticker says delete and credited original buyer $27! This car was delivered new to Ed Schmidt Pontiac in Toledo Ohio.  I am the fifth owner of this stunning car and have had this car in my collection since 2006. I am now focusing on C1 and 2 Corvettes ... C1 and C2 Top Flight trades considered. If you are looking for a quality, restored, stock Trans Am your search has ended. Glad to answer any questions from interested buyers. NO SCAMMERS, NO TIRE KICKERS PLEASE>

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile

Sun, 29 Apr 2012

Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.

Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

If you're an automotive engineer being tormented by an immortal being made of fire, then wouldn't you think it best to have a custom coupe called the FireBreather for your getaway car? That's the FireBreather in the image above, adorned by the red wings that once fronted the Pontiac Firebird, running away from a black cloud of evil in a trailer for the movie Jinn.
The Jinn is eternal evil, always waiting for the chance to make things float across rooms before going on homicidal urban rampages. The FireBreather is a Gen-V Chevrolet Camaro - from the V6 to the ZL1 - that's been through Classic Design Concepts' extensive list of exterior and interior modifications, including entirely new front and rear fascias and side skirts, sway bars and springs, Pirelli P Zeroes and an available Edelbrock supercharger.
The movie - FireBreathing chase scenes and all - was shot in Monroe, Michigan. You can watch the trailer below, but since the FireBreather only get a couple of seconds on screen, you can find out more about it on Street Legal TV and its official site.

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation 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.
