Hi, I am Ralph, a semi-retired dealer-collector of special interest autos. I make every attempt to portray vehicle as accurately as possible, and encourage phone calls about details of vehicle. This vehicle is a matching # Lemans convertible with GTO trim. It is now at best upholstery shop being fitted with new convertible top. Still to install; rear quarter lower trim and new front fender GTO emblems. I will leave room for finished pictures to be inserted prior to completion of auction.(this car looks as good up close as the pictures) I have driven this convertible daily to make sure it is okay to travel. Had new master and brake parts installed as necessary (good brakes now to top of pedal). Engine runs nice with new oil change and fairly recent tune up and dual exhaust. Transmission shifts as it should. All lights work, along with wipers. still need check horn. my mechanic says rt. ball joint needs replacing although I can't feel it driving it.(I will have it replaced) Car runs and drives excellent. plenty of power and handles very well, with no body rattles. Nice tires mounted on excellent rims sandblasted and painted with original PMD centers. I encourage you to come for inspection and test drive prior to bidding. .............I will be including underside photos shortly. It has nice rust free frame and original floor pans and trunk pan. The body panels were all nice, but rather than rust repair in wheel opening area we opted for rear quarters. Super nice Endura bumper and original GTO hood (not repro) installed. My cost on adding GTO items, body and paintwork (urethane) is in neighborhood of starting bid. I have not replaced the original interior. It needs to be done to make car all that it can be. I do not have time to wait for shop to do it, so it is priced accordingly. Trunk rubber seal to be installed. I will leave detailing and finishing car to you. use it as is original, or finish to show car, as body and paint already are there. Please call me to bid on this car if your feedback rating is less than 20. Low feedback bidders are fine if we have talked but usually present a problem if they bid without permission. Please check my feedback. Most recently a bidder with feedback of 3 sniped in and has been a problem. Ebay is currently investigating him. I stand behind my cars as described.

GM knew about fatal Chevy ignition problem decade before recall
Fri, 21 Feb 2014Well, this is not good for General Motors. Following a report last week that GM was recalling 778,000 Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 compacts over concerns that the ignition could switch out of the "run" position without warning, USA Today reports that the Detroit-based behemoth knew about the issue, which affected 2005 to 2007 Cobalts (the Cobalt shown above and in the gallery is from 2010) and 2007 Pontiac G5s, all the way back in 2004.
The information comes from a deposition in a civil lawsuit against GM, obtained by USA Today, which claims that a GM engineer experienced the issue while the then-new model was undergoing testing. The issue was "solved" when a technical service bulletin was issued in 2005, informing dealers to install a snap-on key cover on the cars of customers who complained about the issue. According to the Cobalt's program engineering manager, Gary Altman, the cover was an "improvement, it was not a fix to the issue."
The case where the depositions were made was from 2010, and involved Brooke Melton, a 29-year-old pediatric nurse in Georgia who was killed on her birthday. At the time, police claimed she was going too fast on a wet, rural road, although it later came out through the black box that her car's ignition had come out of the "run" position at least three seconds before the accident (the max amount of time a black box records before a wreck), disabling her airbags, power steering and anti-lock brakes. According to USA Today, police said Melton was "traveling too fast for the roadway conditions," although it's impossible to know if she'd have been in the wreck, which injured the occupants of another vehicle, had her 2005 Chevy not shut off. GM settled the Melton family's case, although the details remain confidential.
Wanted: 1967 Pontiac GTO for a special Father's Day
Thu, 07 Jun 2012Jim Sharp of Elkhorn, Wisconsin needs a red 1967 Pontiac GTO to make his dad's Father's Day, possibly his last one, something extra special.
Back in the '60s, Jim's dad, Ken, drove a cherry red 1967 GTO to California for a job. He met a girl, got married and decided his wife's 1965 Ford Mustang was more fuel efficient than the Goat and the GTO was sold. As the story almost always goes, Ken has had seller's regret ever since.
Jim always meant to find a 1967 GTO and, with his dad's help, restore it. But life got in the way, time slipped by and Ken was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and given about three months to live.
Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
