1975 Pontiac Firebird, No Reserve Survivor Only 55k Miles Execellent Condition on 2040-cars
Cornelius, North Carolina, United States
True barn find ! This Firebird has been in the same family since new. Exceptional condition for a non restored car. This is a survivor car! I am listing this car for a friend who does not have an ebay account. She has a clean, clear, North Carolina title in hand. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a low mileage Firebird. Ok so here are the details. Only 55365 miles, NO rips or tears in interior. Everything is bone stock down to the AM radio. It does have a AM/FM radio included with the car. (ok settle down I know your excited) Factory 8 track player! Sorry no tapes included. Not sure if it works as I don't have any tapes either. Now where is that Van Halen 8 Track when I need it? Haha Electrical: All lights, horn, and electrical items work as they should. A/C works but will need a recharge. Alternator light glows at idle but, using test equipment shows it is charging over 13 volts. Both headlights will need replaced as low beams are burnt out. Gas gauge does not work correctly, reads full all the time. Engine: Fires right up every time. Carb will need rebuilding as there is a flat spot in throttle just off idle (power valve or accelerator pump). Only part missing is a metal strap that goes over battery from front cowl to drivers side inner fender. Engine and accessories have surface rust on them. Air cleaner is all there and intact. No smoke from exhaust. No signs of oil burning at all. Engine feels solid. Body: Overall in great shape. Paint is glossy but does have hard water spots or acid rain. Also has rust bubble on right side just behind passenger door (see picture). No body damage, dents, or signs of past damage. Looks like all original paint but can not claim that for sure. Front bumper has crack in nose of car just below grill (see picture). Fit and finish is excellent. This car is being sold with no reserve. I do have the right to end auction early as it is for sale locally. On Feb-27-14 at 16:36:27 PST, seller added the following information: Car has been repainted. |

GM Recalls 1.5 Million Cars For Steering Defect
Tue, Apr 1 2014General Motors Co. said Monday it is recalling 1.5 million vehicles worldwide because the electronic power-steering assist can suddenly stop working, making them harder to steer. The new recall brings to 6.3 million the number of vehicles GM has recalled since February. The initial recall - now at 2.6 million small cars for an ignition switch defect - prompted the automaker to name a new safety chief and speed up the review of cases that might lead to recalls. GM said it expects recall-related costs to total $750 million in the first quarter, including $300 million for the ignition switch recall. Included in the new recall are: - Chevrolet Malibu from the 2004-2005 model years, plus some 2006, 2008 and 2009 model-year cars. - Chevrolet Malibu Maxx from the 2004-2005 model years, plus some 2006 model-year cars. - Chevrolet HHR from the 2009-2010 model years (non-turbocharged only). - Some Chevrolet Cobalts from the 2010 model year. - Some Saturn Auras from the 2008-2009 model years. - Saturn Ion from the 2004-2007 model years. - Pontiac G6 from the 2005 model year, plus some cars from the 2006, 2008 and 2009 model years. - Service parts installed into certain vehicles before May 31, 2010, under a previous recall GM says no deaths related to the defect have been reported. It is still investigating whether there have been any accidents or injuries related to the problem. GM dealers will replace the power steering motor and other parts for free. Spokesman Alan Adler said owners will be notified of the recall the week of April 28 and will be told when parts are available after that. The Cobalt and the Ion, which are also involved in the ignition switch recall, share many common parts.GM recalled Cobalts from the 2005-2010 model years for the power steering defect in 2010, but it's unclear why the company didn't recall the Ion at the same time. Federal regulators also opened an investigation into power steering complaints in the Ion in 2010, but didn't order a recall.

This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod
Fri, 21 Feb 2014There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.
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.
