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 another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes
Mon, 31 Mar 2014When 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:
Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative
Tue, 29 Oct 2013How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
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.
