1968 Firebird 400 coupe SALVAGE NEVADA TITLE. In 2004 the car was hit in the front passenger quarter panel. The panel has been repaired poorly. The twin scoop hood was replaced with a 350 hood in 2004. I had the 350 hood replaced with a used factory twin scoop hood. It is in decent condition but it does have rust at the very front of the hood on the passenger side. There is no frame damage. The car has some rust around the top of the wheel wells. The distributor has been replaced new. The radiator has been roded and re-cored. Carberator has been soaked and re-built. New ignition switch, starter relay, starter, throttle & kick-down mount is new as is the voltage regulator. The transmission filter and gasket have been replaced. It shifts well as it should. Brakes work, but if you wanted to put it on the road as your restoration progresses, new tires and serviced brake parts would be recommended. The rear window frame looks rough but it is only surface rust, nothing that will need to be welded The windshield is cracked as is the dash pad. Aftermarket steering wheel and radio. It has a tilt steering column, not sure if it is factory. Interior will need total overhaul. I checked the trim code and it is original and a low production style. The trim plate above the brake booster reads: ST 68-22637 LOR 16302 BODY PAINT
TR 257 G-G The engine runs real good. It is the original numbers matching 400ci 335 HP. The transmission is a turbo 400 automatic. It has the factory shift assembly and knob. It doesn't have any cover. All the inside handles are there along with the rear seat panel ashtrays.
I will assist in loading the car for transport. Delivery around town is possible after payment in full has been received.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General 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.
Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?
Wed, 07 Oct 2009 DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.
