Pontiac Tojan

[Lethal1973]

Anyone have any info on the Tojan? I know they were built between 1985 and 1989 (?) by Knudson Automotive of Omaha based upon the F-Body Pontiac Firebird TA and could be ordered thru a network of regular Pontiac Dealers. Please, no "Fast & Furious" jokes about that wing...

Don't know but have a qq for you. The green Camaro in the background. Is that a T/A front fender? Just curious as inquiring minds want to know. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

The green car has Camaro fenders with TA air extractors

I installed a set of 78 T/A fender air extractors on a 69 Camaro back in 1988. Looked pretty neat back then. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif

I remember seeing something like that at the Chevy dealer back in 86 or so, a Camaro version. It was kind of expensive, 24K if I remember correctly, and had no performance improvement over a regular IROC. Just restricted visibility and extra weight added. I thought it was awful.

[Lethal1973]

You should have driven one-better wheels, tires, upgraded suspension and actually lighter than the TA/IROC.
Simply Awesome!

No offense lethal... but it kinda looks like a Nissan 300Z with herpes... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

I thought the Monza Mirage was the worst until this.

[Lethal1973]

Just asking if anyone had any info. I guess I came to the wrong place. I have been looking at this forum for a month or so and found it to be both informative and a little snobbish at the same time. I always believe in the saying "If you can't say something good, don't say anything at all." To each his own...I certainly wouldn't take digs at another's car in a public forum, but that's just me. Adios!

[bbdon]

Sorry Lethal, I didn't think that you would take it that way. I guess it does look like we piled on too much. If it helps, I think your 73 is amazing.

[55chevy]

I agree with bbdon about your Camaro.. Were you ever able to determine if it was a true Yenko? That would be a neat one to own! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

Oops...You mean that trading that ratty '73 for this spiffy Tojan was a mistake!!

Lethal,
I happen to like that "Tojan" - I'd never seen one until you posted it.
Cool!

Insead of a Nissan 300Z with Herpes I prefer to think of it as a Trans-Am with a boob job gone bad. Just kidding about trading the ratty '73.

Lethal...shhh...theres ladies lurking....that would be breast augmentation gone awry...and quit talking about this car...I have been holding off with an obvious smartass comment..."He wear no shoeshine, he got .......football !!!

[Charley Lillard]

There is one for sale in the new Auta Buy that I just got in the mail. 16,995.00..Gilbert Arizona, 800-342-1957..www.arizonaconnection.net

[Lethal1973]

Ouch-I only paid 3M for my ToeJam...er....Tojan. Actually bought it as a winter back-up in case my 90 Chev Celebrity Stationwagon died (seriously). Thanks to all for the input!

[Charley Lillard]

And here I was refraining from calling it a Toejam so as not to hurt your feelings........

[Belair62]

Took you long enough to get my last post Charley...weren't there a lot of "different" body package cars built in the 80's ? I seem to remember some really goofy stretched 2 door Sevilles and Eldos....forgot what their names were but I thought they were made in Florida...maybe it was a Miami Vice craze thingy.

I don't recall ever hearing a difinitive response to the 73 you have and it's similarities to the Yenko ad posted. What's the scoop on that one? ..don't make me post more silly Toejam photo's. Fill us in on the 73..or at least point me to the ending of the thread that I missed. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

[Lethal1973]

Here's the info from the other thread on the 1973 Camaro <ul type="square"> 54721 55003 [/list] 56157

[Lethal1973]

Well-that didn't work very well-the info is in the Yenko Forum back in November under "can Anyone repost The yenko Ad"
Tried to do a link to post #55003 but obviously do no know what I am doing!!
I don't think the 1973 is an "official" Yenko but interesting nevertheless.

[Lethal1973]

Sorry-the 73 camaro thread is in the Yenko forum as "1970-73 Yenko Camaro Advert" not "Can someone repost the Yenko ad"

[fpcopo]

I knew those guys and went to their shop. The company was started by the 2 Knudsen brothers. I don't know what happened to them. The cars were basically a stock Firebird with body panels. This was all they could get away with doing because of EPA restraints. The quality of the panels and the work was actually pretty nice. The styling is in my opinion a little uh... different. But hey, everyones idea of beauty is different. Some people obviously like them because they sold more than a few of them. Frank

Whats the flux capassitor on the dash above the radio? Is that red overspray on the driver's seat? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hmmm.gif Did you read that Jay Leno is cordially invited to bid?...Bel Air, that car is all you... I just hope you and Jay don't end up in a bidding war at the end. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Belair62]

[ikako]

That thing what you call flux capacitor used to be an alarm put in by previous owner as far as I know. Driver's seat need to be redone a bit probably just to be in mint condition. that's the only thing that I can think of that this car needs to have redone
