Paramus, New Jersey, United States
1967 Pontiac Firebird 400
#’s match PHS documented 400/325 HP, TH400. 1st Production Year. Outstanding example. 1st Time Offered for public sale in over 30 years. California car. 76k original miles on the odometer are believed to be accurate. Factory options include power steering, power brakes, console, soft ray glass, safe-t-track 3.08 posi rear, deluxe interior. Vehicle History The original owner purchased new in 1967. He was from the Mid-West. He moved to California in 1969 and brought the car with him. He sold the car in 1983 to the second owner (also Californian) where it remained in his car collection for 30 years. Exterior A recent exterior restoration was completed. The exterior paint was shot in GM silver using high quality DuPont Chromabase paint. The body is very straight. The car sits on show quality powder coated rally II wheels with new center caps and lugs, mounted to Goodyear Eagle ST tires with excellent rubber. All exterior emblems were replaced, new front and rear bumpers, rocker panels, wheel trim, door handles, driver mirror, front and rear window molding, weather stripping. Stunning car with perfect stance and presence. Interior The dark turquoise deluxe interior was a very rare color option in 1967 and is an outstanding complement to the silver exterior. The original interior build tags were found under the seats. The interior was treated to brand new carpeting, top quality replacement deluxe door panels (Al Knoch), and a re-upholstered original dash pad. The front and rear seats were reupholstered several years back - they look great with very nice foam. There is a very small (quarter size) hole in the passenger rear side of the headliner, otherwise the rest of the headliner is in excellent condition. Undercarriage The chassis / undercarriage remains in its original stock form with no rust or chassis repair thanks to 45 years on the West coast. Finding an untouched undercarriage like this is pretty remarkable. The floor panels and frame rails are outstanding. The original trunk floor is rust free. It was treated to a light splatter paint coating and looks outstanding. The shock towers are perfect. Mechanical All gauges, lights, electrics, wipers, horn function properly. The original AM radio is still in the car and works perfect. The original 100% stock 400 engine
fires right up easily and runs incredibly strong with plenty of power. Original Quadrajet carburetor.
The TH400 transmission shifts are smooth. The car tracks straight and stops
well. Brand new custom dual exhaust set up with turbo mufflers
gives the car an authentic, performance sound.
Super reliable and tight. The original engine mounts were just replaced. The front transmission seal was also replaced. This is a beautiful and rare bird that will definitely win its share of car shows. Could easily be a Pontiac Nationals caliber Firebird with very minimal effort. The car is being sold as is and is also offered for sale locally. I reserve the right to end the auction early at any time. If you’re looking for a first year authentic Firebird 400, I would not pass this one up. The car is available for inspection. Private Seller. Please contact me with any questions.

GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.
GM's got 107 problems and NHTSA's No. 1
Thu, Mar 6 2014General Motors' problems with its recall of roughly 1.6-million vehicles continue to mount. Now that it has emerged that GM knew about the problem since at least 2004 but waited to recall vehicles until February 2014, regulators at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have begun a much deeper investigation. NHTSA has sent a 27-page survey to GM that includes 107 questions about the timeline of what led up to the recall, and it has until April 3 to reply. This isn't a simple, multiple-choice test. Automotive News believes that hundreds of pages could be required to answer some of the queries. NHTSA says that it is still investigating GM's response to the recall. "We are a data-driven organization, and we will take whatever action is appropriate based on where our findings lead us," said NHTSA in a statement on its website. If found liable, the automaker could face a fine as high as $35 million and even possible criminal charges, according to Bloomberg. NHTSA's questions include a detailed explanation of GM's examination process; how it will improve the process; why a planned redesign of the cars' key in 2005 wasn't implemented; and specific data on each complaint it received. According to Bloomberg, NHTSA also has records that show the company had a meeting with regulators to discuss the airbag failure in a Chevrolet Cobalt in 2007. New GM CEO Mary Barra has also hired an outside law firm to conduct an independent investigation about what happened. It will include questioning company employees who were involved with the process from the start. The recall stems from faulty ignition switches that shut off the car while driving, and if it occurs the airbags deactivate. Thirteen deaths and 23 crashes have been caused by the problem, according to Bloomberg. If you would like to peruse NHTSA's entire questionnaire for GM, it can be viewed here.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob 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.
