Los Angeles, California, United States
The car was brought to us by one of our very special clients who wanted the car refreshed, but has since moved to Switzerland and no longer has use for the car here in the states. Everything has been gone though with the exception of the interior seating surfaces because he wanted to keep the original integrity of the extremely well preserved 43 year old material. No other expense was spared in making this car an amazing everyday looker and driver. This stunning survivor has only 33,775 Original miles. The car is in near showroom condition and just recently underwent a body on restoration. The perfectly healthy rust and dent free body was taken down to the bare metal and professionally re-sprayed. It took one year just to complete the paint job at a cost of $10,000 -Both doors, fenders, trunk lid, engine compartment and glass were disassembled and or removed from the car in order to achieve top notch results. Needless to say the finish shines brilliantly and the end result is spectacular! -Almost every piece of rubber on the body of the car is new -All weather-stripping, door window strikers and seals were also replaced with brand new parts. -All window trim/beauty rings were sent out for re-polishing and the wheels were sand blasted and restored to factory specifications and wrapped in a brand new set of tires. -New taillights, housing and rubber seals -New oem chrome bumper -All new emblems -New wheel well fender trim -New (PMD) center caps -New handles -New mirror seals -New rocker panel moldings -Re-chromed headlight bezels -New turn signals -All new side marker lights -Complete new exhaust system (front-back) -Twin Flow-masters (sounds amazing!) -New shocks -New headliner -New carpeting -New dome light cover -New trunk liner -New correct vinyl roof -New Climate control vents Mechanically the car is in tip top condition -Overhauled matching number 350 c.i. engine runs and sounds better than new -Perfect transmission -Brakes, steering and suspension are in tip top condition. -The entire drivetrain is 100% solid and tight -All mechanical, electrical and climate control systems work like they should -Ice cold air conditioning system -Factory Delco radio There is no doubt this original California car is one special find.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
GM recalling 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported
Thu, 13 Feb 2014General Motors has announced that it will be recalling 778,562 compact cars after six people were killed in accidents, partially due to the airbags' failure to deploy. An issue with the ignition switch is causing the airbag issues, as well as causing the engine and other components to shut off without warning. The recall covers the 2005 to 2007 model year Chevrolet Cobalt and 2007 Pontiac G5. (Note that the Cobalt pictured above is a 2009 model.)
According to a report from Automotive News, a number of factors can cause the ignition to switch out of the run position, including weights on the key ring, rough or bumpy roads or other "jarring" events. Any of these situations could lead to some vehicle components not functioning properly.
There have been five fatal front-impact crashes that took the lives of six people, although as a GM spokesman noted, all five of the crashes happened off road and at high speed. In each of these cases, though, the lack of airbags wasn't the only lethal factor - alcohol and failure to wear a seat belt also played a role. Outside of the fatal accidents, there have been 17 other crashes where airbags didn't deploy. It's unclear if any of these crashes were caused by the engine shutting off.
