Dave Armstrong, the master GM mechanic who keeps my Fiero on the road, did a frame-up restoration on this flawless, award-winning 1969 Pontiac Firebird 400. (Quick, all you old-timers. What were the names of the other Firebird models available that year? No peeking.) I’m always amazed at his ability to find NOS parts that aren’t even being made anymore by anyone, especially GM. Dave takes this car to Pontiac shows during the summer; don’t miss the opportunity to see it up close and personal. This video doesn’t do it justice. If you have a GM car (or any other car or truck, for that matter), and you live in the Chicago area, take it to him. Ace Muffler, 7157 W. Irving Park Rd., near Harlem/Irving Plaza. (773)282-1444. How good is he? When he replaced the Iron Duke in my Fiero, his years of experience allowed him to take the old one out through the top instead of dropping the rear suspension and drivetrain, as Pontiac recommended. Yes, he knows his business. And anyone who would take a car like this into Chicago evening rush-hour traffic is either very brave or knows that he could build another one just like it, which he could;) That lap-dissolve at 3:16 was necessitated by a very rude, very obscene comment and hand gesture by the female passenger in that Toyota Yaris. Pure jealousy, that’s all that was. That Firebird 400 V8 sound is music. If you have stereo speakers on your computer, turn them up. He’s also restoring a ’69 Pontiac Ventura, which I shot video of and will …

Rob LaCroix gets his Pontiac Sunfire way out of shape in this wheelie at the 2009 World Power Wheelstanding Championships in Byron, IL. He almost loses it. Teetering on a crash.

I thought you’d like a look at this customized 1978 Pontiac Trans Am. It’s powered by a 455 V8, punched out to a 463, and topped with dual carbs. This is one serious, high-performance machine. The car has a custom L-88 style hood and a big, whale tale spoiler out back. It’s a nice looking machine all the way around. Thanks for taking a look!

How to buff a new Base/Clear paint job. I used 1500 grit sand paper to cut down the orangepeel. This was then followed by buffing with a wool pad and 3M “Rubbing Compound”. I finished with a foam pad and Meguiars swirl remover. Do not use a wax or sealer immediately after painting a car!

We’ve driven the Pontiac G8 GT, and it’s a load of fun. Now toss in the letters GXP. As if the G8 wasn’t beefy enough, the G8 GXP promises to deliver even more driving pleasure by adding 41 horsepower to the already exciting powertrain.
