1979 Pontiac Trans Am Y84 Special Edition With Ws6 Package on 2040-cars
Indianola, Illinois, United States
1979 Pontiac trans am real Bandit Y84 specula Edition with factory WS6 package. This car was born with every single
option I ever wanted. It has the WS6 package from the factory which gives the car 8" wide wheels and 4 wheel disc
brakes. It also gave the car a special handling package suspension upgrade. This car has NO rust anywhere. There is
zero rot under this car. It still has the original qtrs on the car. It also has the original radio still in the car
with the original rear deck in tact. I believe the factory speakers might even be in the car. I just never looked.
The radio still works and plays music. This is the highest factory real Bandit I have ever come across. Power
windows, power door locks, cruise control, tilt, power trunk release, deluxe vinyl interior, special dome lamp, air
conditioning(not presently hooked up), the options are all listed on the window sticker for you to read. It comes
with the original WS6 wheels that I took off the car before I had the new wheels and tires installed because I
wanted new wheels and tires. The old wheels are in amazing shape, They just need to be repainted. New items on this
car include gas tank, brakes, interior, headliner, Pypes x exhaust including the drop down tips I never put on,
carpet, wheels, tires and most of the weather trim. I have the PHS report along with a copy of the window sticker
which is all included. I am also selling this car with the cover shown in the picture. The original 403 is gone. I
now have an amazing Pontiac 455 that was rebuilt in 2015. This is a 1970 block. Arguably the best year 455 ever
made. The engine has less than a 1000 miles on it. I cant tell you enough how incredible this engine runs. It never
even smokes after being in storage all winter. It runs like a top. I just had DRC racing tune the car this Spring.
DRC told me that this car has a 4 bolt main. The Pontiac 455 motors are not getting any easier to find. DRC
confirmed that this is a 1970 block. There is stampings on the bottom of the engine. The turbo 400 trans was also
rebuilt and has a shift kit. It's a perfect match for this engine. I am guessing the engine makes around 400HP.
Plenty of power to turn this big tires.

GM doing fine at retaining Pontiac owners
Fri, 28 Oct 2011This isn't the first time we've reported positive news about General Motors retaining former Pontiac owners. Get a few more stories like this latest report from Edmund's Auto Observer, and it will mark an ongoing positive trend for GM. Edmunds.com crunched the numbers to see how well the General is hanging on to customers after shutting out the lights at Pontiac, and it found that nearly 40 percent of Pontiac owners stayed with a vehicle from a General Motors brand.
The numbers are a little lower than an earlier R.L. Polk & Company study, but Edmunds says General Motors is keeping more former Pontiac buyers than it has since 2007. Most are turning to vehicles from Chevrolet, especially during January and February of 2011, when GM incentivized Pontiac owners to stay under the umbrella. Those moves seem to have worked, and 28.1 percent of Pontiac owners trading up made the jump into a Bowtie.
Buyers that have gone elsewhere have largely stayed loyal to Domestic automakers, with Ford picking up the most conquests from Pontiac, with 9.4 percent switching. Toyota and Honda picked up 7.4 percent of the pool of former Pontiac drivers. The numbers are defying any predictions that Pontiac buyers would completely exit the General Motors fold, and have climbed up closer to parity with the retention figures of other GM brands from a 2009 low of only 16 percent retention.
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.
GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
