1965 TRUE GTO! AN ORIGINAL RED CAR! LOADED WITH OPTIONS! VERY COMPLETE & BUILDABLE! If you've been looking for the perfect car to build, you have found it. This is by far one of the most desirable and most affordable cars you will find out there. Many great cars pass through eBay but not very often do you find cars of this caliber. So here is that rare opportunity to own one of the most sought after muscle cars ever made but at a realistic price. Please note that I do have this car for sale locally and I will end the auction early should it sell prior to the auction ending. So if interested, please do not hesitate to call Shawn at 816-308-0351. This GTO has spent almost twenty years locked away in captivity. Sunk away in the deep dark bowels of an old warehouse, this GTO had not seen the light of day until just recently. As you will see, someone made a valiant attempt at restoring it. The car overall has a lot of attractive aspects. Aside from the obvious, (being a true GTO, floor shifter car with the console, a correct 389, being loaded with options, and having the most desirable color scheme) it is also a fairly solid car that is very complete. So you can rest comfortably knowing that you won't be spending endless hours hunting down parts all over the planet! Body: The body through out the GTO has some very appealing aspects. It is not suffering from all of the typical rust that you would find with most of these GTO's. For example the roof, rear sill, hood, trunk lid, rockers, doors, fenders, inner wheel housing, rear frame rails, they are all very solid and original! Even the floors are solid but that is due to the front floors being replaced. The quarters will require half quarters and the GTO will need a new trunk pan. All of the glass through out the GTO is in excellent shape. None of it is cracked or suffering from any major blemishes. The bumpers are there but they are pealing and will need rechromed or replaced. Engine & Mechanical: I was told by the previous owner that the transmission was original to the car but I have not verified that. I do know that the motor does not match but it does have the correct YF (389 automatic) block. Based on what the previous owner had explained, it was running when it was pulled and put in the GTO. The transmission was also functional. Interior: The interior as you can see is complete. The dash and instrument panel I do not believe have ever been pulled. It is very complete and unmolested. We do have the original bucket seats and back seat as well as the original center console which as you will see is complete and is in fairly good condition. The headliner is also still in tact but will need replaced. I will be evaluating all reasonable offers and I will in fact sell the GTO early as we do have it for sale "locally". My goal here is to sell the GTO. I strongly encourage anyone who is interested to please call or email to schedule a time to come check it out. I would also like to add that I am usually on the phone from 7 AM until about 12 AM so you are always welcome to call and if I do not answer, just leave a message and I will return your call immediately. I know from my own experience with purchasing cars online, most of the time it is very difficult to get someone on the phone and to obtain the information you need. So I try to always stay on top of emails and phone calls. Also, if you need photos of any specific areas of the vehicle, please do not hesitate to ask. We do have a clear title for this GTO. As always, good luck and happy bidding! Thanks, Shawn (816) 308-0351 Looking for some other rare and exotic Muscle cars? I have several others, two of which are on eBay right now.

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.
2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.

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:
