 A classic 1965 Pontiac Bonneville convertible in excellent condition.  Excellent white exterior with stunning red/maroon interior including original factory console and automatic floor shifter.  I've watched these cars come and go on
Ebay listings and through the pages of Hemmings and very few have ALL of the following in one package - factory bucket seats, factory console and floor shifter,  factory console mounted vacuum gauge, factory dash mounted Pontiac tachometer,   factory eight lug wheels (8 lug changing tool included - see picture), factory air conditioning (works!), the radio is original factory AM with working REVERB, power steering, power brakes, power white top (works effortlessly).  It has the original 389 engine with Edlebrock 4V carb (original AC breather included - see picture).  Runs and drives beautifully and strong on new tires.  Honestly, this is one of those cars that when you meet it, you'll say "Hey, this is better than the pictures and description" - and that doesn't happen very often.  I've been on both sides of that event. 
   The car just turned over 100K miles this summer with limited driving and over the years I have maintenanced as needed or as desired.  It has new dual exhaust and complete front end (ball joints, bushings, link rods, etc) It has been to Cruisin The Coast a couple of times and various car shows.  I bought the car showing 97K out of a collection in 2007 so I would technically be the third owner  This collector found and bought the car from the original owner in Kansas and freshened the engine with new gaskets and very mild Comp Cam.  
   I have a connection with a custom hauler specializing in classics and can arrange very reasonable and dependable shipping.  Email me for any details or questions (109settle@gmail.com).

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later

Fri, 12 Sep 2014



Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
