Up for sale is a very nice solid1967 Pontiac Tempest Coupe. This Pontiac could be left A Tempest or turn into a GTO Clone. The odometer reads 16,234, but I am sure it has rolled over at least once. This car is a 2 door post with a rebuilt SBC 350 backed by a TH 350 Automatic. This Pontiac has had a lot of work done to it, and is just about ready for paint and finishing touches or could be daily drive with minimal work. All body work was done professionally at a body shop. The car is currently painted with black primer. The rear quarters have been replaced; all other body panels are original to this car except for the hood which is an original GTO hood. All panels fit and line up good, but could use minor adjustments here and there to fit great. The floor pan and trunk pan have also been replaced. The front and rear window channels look pretty good, little or no pitting on front, and the rear has some pitting but could not find any holes. All of the glass is in good shape and the windshield is brand new. The bumpers are in decent shape but could use re-chromed to be really nice. The interior is in decent shape. The seats are pretty good shape, the fronts are original 67 metal back buckets, and the rear is original and was recovered at some point. The door panels could use to be replaced, the headliner does sag some in the rear. The car runs and drives great. The engine runs good and does not smoke. The transmission shifts fine, but could use a shift kit in my opinion. It has disc brakes in the front, drum in the rear, and they work just fine. The wheels are 16x8 American Racing Torq Thrust II. The tires have some weather checking and could use to be replaced in the near future to be a driver. All of the suspension is in good shape, new coil springs, new shocks, steering and ball joints are good. This car does not have power steering or power brakes, parts to convert these are included in the sale, along with some other good parts such as instrument cluster bezel, set of grilles, factory radio, factory center console, and the original jack. This Pontiac will make a great driver with little work or would make a very nice car when finished. Please feel free to ask any questions that you might have.

This car has a clean and clear Wisconsin title. I have tried to get the best pictures and describe this car accurately the best I can. If you would like to come see this car in person just let me know and we can make arrangements to do so. Payment will be cash in person unless other arrangements are made prior to sale. If you have any questions about the car feel free to ask. You as the buyer are responsible for picking this car up. This car is also for sale locally and I reserve the right to end listing at any time. This car is being sold as-is, no warranty. Thanks for looking.

GM isn't liable for punitive damages in ignition switch cases

Wed, Nov 20 2019

NEW YORK — A federal appeals court said General Motors is not liable for punitive damages over accidents that occurred after its 2009 bankruptcy and involved vehicles it produced earlier, including vehicles with faulty ignition switches. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said on Tuesday that the automaker did not agree to contractually assume liability for punitive damages as part of its federally-backed Chapter 11 reorganization. GM filed for bankruptcy in June 2009, and its best assets were transferred to a new Detroit-based company with the same name. The other assets and many liabilities stayed with "Old GM," which is also known as Motors Liquidation Co. Tuesday's 3-0 decision may help GM reduce its ultimate exposure in nationwide litigation over defective ignition switches in several Chevrolet, Pontiac and Saturn models. It is also a defeat for drivers involved in post-bankruptcy accidents, including those who collided with older GM vehicles driven by others, as well as their law firms. The ignition switch defect could cause engine stalls and keep airbags from deploying, and has been linked to 124 deaths. A lawyer for the drivers and their law firms did not immediately respond to requests for comment. GM had no comment. Circuit Judge Dennis Jacobs said GM's agreement to acquire assets "free and clear" of most liabilities excused it from punitive damages claims for Old GM's conduct. He also noted that the judge who oversaw the bankruptcy concluded that the new company could not be liable for claims that the "deeply insolvent" Old GM would never have paid. The decision upheld a May 2018 ruling by U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman in Manhattan, who oversees the ignition switch litigation. Drivers have sought a variety of damages in that litigation, including for declining resale values. GM has recalled more than 2.6 million vehicles since 2014 over ignition switch problems. It has also paid more than $2.6 billion in related penalties and settlements, including $900 million to settle a U.S. Department of Justice criminal case. The case is In re: Motors Liquidation Co, 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 18-1940. Government/Legal Chevrolet Pontiac Saturn Safety gm ignition switch

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
