Beautifully restored 1970 Pontiac tempest. Upgraded to a 400 cubic inch V8 and 4 speed hurst transmission (same set up as a 1970 GTO), weld racing wheels, k&n air filter, edelbrock 4brl carb.  Not a Utah original car and never driven in snow and there's no rust hiding under the paint!  Less than 15k miles since complete rebuild.  Ready for summer car shows or drag strip!  Factory a/c, Dual exhaust with flowmaster mufflers, sounds awesome (not ghetto awesome, legit awesome!). Just replaced battery, starter, and fuel pump.  Has always been garage kept and well maintained.  Car was stored for the last 6 years, that's why the items listed as new were replaced. Car is in good working condition and is fun to drive. Also have a ram-air GTO hood that is not painted that can be included with purchase if buyer wants to upgrade the car further


Disclosure on known items:
- has minor oil leak from engine (few drops after driving then stops dripping)
- factory a/c is not hooked up to engine belt (never hooked up since I've owned it)
- dual exhaust terminates immediately after mufflers (makes for great sound but may not be legal in all states)
- aftermarket tachometer not working (worked before it was stored, not sure why it isn't working now)
- car does not have a horn
- paint job is 8/10. One small bubble on hood about 3/4" hard to see unless the light hits it right. 3 small chips in paint around car under 1/8" each.
- grill inserts were removed during painting, auto body guy broke clips so they were not re-installed but are included with purchase.
- tires have about 40% life remaining

GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns

Sun, 05 Oct 2014

Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.

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.
