1978 Trans Am Macho T/A #33

Rare low mileage car from single owner family
Black and Gold- original paint
** Original 400 eng. and 4-Speed trans. **
needs restoration
** Original woman owner parked this rare car in 1991 or 1992 and it has been waiting to be restored since then. The car ran and drove fine when parked. A family member convinced her to let him restore the car about 4 years ago and he took out the gas tank,radiator, fender wells,door panels and headliner.He then had marital problems so he stopped and parked her again. Being a rare T/A collector, I heard of this car many years ago but only recently found it and convinced the owners to sell.
This Macho has it's original engine (vin stamp on front verifies)
Engine turns over and ran when parked but has been not been started for over 20 years.
She has Utah rust from driving daily for the first 12-14 years. Salted roads took their toll on rear quarter bottoms (inner and outer) and rear lower bumper brace. Floors and trunk look fine. Factory undercoating. Paint is original and faded. Interior is original. Original Black Velour seats look just like a 73k mile car seat should, just dirty. Dash cracked. Original carpet, etc. Door panels and headliner are gone.
** Very few 4-speed Macho's were built....I know, I have all 1978-1979 Macho T/A records. Black and Gold is the most desired and this one has had one owner since new. The lady did not abuse the car, only neglected it in the last years before parked.
**   This Macho comes with a huge pile of reciepts from 1980 to 1991 when she was parked.
  ** Also comes with Mecham records, Macho brochure and new console ID plate. (old one stolen)
  ** My garages are full (as you can see from pics) and want to see this car go to the right home and someone who will do a great job bringing her back to glory. My Macho #126 Silver Anniversary car recently went to a Great home and is now restored as well as my #4, #9,#21,#52, #87,#90, #121,#142, #146 and #173. I presently own #77, #101, #199 ..... 1979 #92 and #96 ..... 1979 Macho Z #7 (last one made) and 1997 Macho T/A #1 Prototype. I have records for all Mecham cars built in 1978 and 1979 and can verify all vin #'s and options ordered. I also have some MSE items that I purchased from Dennis Mecham many years ago, if you need any. Sorry, the other Macho's I have are not for sale....they are stored for retirement.

Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO

Thu, 08 Aug 2013

Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am

Wed, 15 May 2013

When 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.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
