1965 Pontiac GTO For Sale
This car has been in a heated garage since 1999. I have owned for less then a year with initial intentions to restoring it and finishing the restoration that was already started when I purchased it. I have put $1500.00 into the car to get it roadworthy after its long sleep in the last 4 months with anticipation of keeping it. My life path has made new plans for me and I already have a '66 so thats where I'm at... This car is complete and prior to 1999 the previous owner had done a lot of work and and purchased a lot of new parts from Ames and Year One with intentions of restoring it himself with the help of professionals. It is a perfect restoration candidate. It has low miles and and only a couple of owners. To the best of my knowledge it has been in Utah since new. It starts right up and sounds great. It drives pretty tight like a low mileage car should. It goes through all gears flawlessly. I replaced clutch recently. It stops well. All of the wheel cylinders and rear brake lines replaced. It has new brake shoes on the front and new master cylinder. It has all new shocks and all new springs. Front end rebuilt by previous owners. The wheels and beauty rings / center caps appear to be original. Tires are in good shape, 15 inch. New Gas tank, sending unit and fuel line. Recent tune up and tripower gone through. New battery. It has new mufflers and tailpipes. Heater core replaced and heater works great. Does not overheat. Refurbished orig. radiator. I have driven this car around town and also have cruised comfortably on highway at 75mph. I have a current Utah inspection. All lights and signals work nicely. The previous owner told me that while he had it in the '90's the 389 has been rebuilt along with( the 4 speed and posi rear end as well! It appears to be the case when looked over by mechanic. Power steering no power brakes. Includes extra set of tri-power heads...(Stamped 77) Paint appears to have the original paint on majority of the car with other parts that have been repainted. There are a few misc doinks but nothing major. There is rust in rear quarters and a lil on bottoms of doors but other then that pretty solid.(see Pics) The trunk is solid and the rails and floors are solid. Have not found use of any major bondo repairs. Chrome numbers are straight but oxidized in places. Grill is nice. Doors shut nice and firm with no sag. Interior is original but carpet has been replaced. It has seat belts. Headliner is near perfect. A couple of misc tears in driver seat. Rear seat is beautiful. New rear speaker assembly. Dash is complete and all gauges work accurately. New glove box insert.** Extra set of near perfect black door panels included without the aftermarket speaker holes cut in them. All Glass is good with no chips. Wipers and pump work good. Wood wheel is in nice shape. Includes all handles, knobs and switches. Only thing missing is console:(. I plan on posting specific pictures upon request. Please feel free to contact me directly for additional questions or any concerns. I plan on getting all of the numbers(block,manifold, heads) listed on description on Monday. I am motivated seller but I'm not giving it away. Its a special car and great opportunity to restore. I reserve the right to end auction early and sell locally outside ebay if someone is serious. Car is available for inspection. Located in Salt Lake City.

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.
GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
