1979 Pontiac Trans Am Y84 Special Edition With Ws6 Package on 2040-cars
Richton Park, 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.

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.
This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod
Fri, 21 Feb 2014There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.
Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative
Tue, 29 Oct 2013How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
