1968 Pontiac GTO the real deal. Not a clone. Original 242 car.

PHS states it as nightshade green, black interior, black vinyl top, buckets, console, clock, automatic with factory Hurst dual gate shifter, 3.36 gears with open carrier, power steering, factory power disc brakes, soft ray glass, Rally II wheels (correct codes), hide away headlights.

This is a project but the car is very complete and a great base to start. It has been sitting since the early 1980's so it has rust. I have the PHS, clean title and past owner history.

Engine/tranny: are not original. It has a good running 1970 YH code 455 block casting #9799140 with 1967 #143 heads, Edelbrock street dominator intake manifold, Holley 4brl carb, headers, dual exhaust and 1969 turbo 400 trans. The engine does not knock or smoke. Tranny shifts as it should. Battery is brand new. I have only driven it around the block and in and out of the garage.

Body: Car will need full 1/4's, wheelhouses, trunk pan, panel between trunk lid and rear window, both fenders, floor will need three areas fixed but not full pans. Both doors will need patching. Rockers are solid in and out. Roof has a hole near front of windshield. Trunk lid lip has been repaired. Hood has some questionable rust underneath. Front valence is dented but solid. Inner fenders are good. No rust around front windshield. Endura is straight. Rear bumper should be replaced.

Frame: Right frame rail just below the fender dog leg will need a patch, not major frame work, not major rot. Looks as if some moisture just sat in the lower rail at the turn. About a four inch area. The rest of the frame is solid. Gas tank will need to be replaced. Brakes work good. Tires are shot.

Interior: All there minus the carpet. Front seats will need new foam and be recovered. Door panels, quarter interior panels, kick panels, rear seat are very nice. Dash pad is near perfect. Steering wheel is very nice. Dash has been cut for a radio. Glove box door and its' interior are very nice. Center console needs to be recovered.

Glass: All soft ray glass is good with no separations and minimal scratches. Front windshield appears new.

GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes

Mon, 31 Mar 2014

When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:

The largest among them covers 215,243 units of the Saturn Vue from 2002-2004 model years worldwide, 202,115 in the US. It's possible for the for the key to be removed even when the ignition isn't in the OFF position. The company knows of two crashes and one injury caused by this problem. Dealers are checking the parts and replacing the ignition cylinder and key set, if necessary.
Next is 72,826 models worldwide (48,059 vehicles in the US) of the 2013 Cadillac ATS four-door sedan, 2013 Buick Encore and 2013 Chevy Trax in Canada. It's possible that the for lap belt pretensioner to retract but not to lock, which could increase occupant movement during a crash. Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.

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.
