Hello to all ebayers,...PLEASE READ..... .....up for your consideration and/or bid is a 1968 REAL GTO either as a parts car or an aggressive and serious full-out restoration project car. I'll do the best I can to list all the "pros and cons" of this GTO. The best thing is that the Pontiac is a real GTO and not a clone, recreation, tribute or fake,...furthermore it has the complete drive-line;...engine, transmission, drive shaft, rear-end (differential), hide-away headlight option, A/C and finally the original GTO neoprene front bumper. The VIN and data plaque (body tag) are original and in place as FACTORY INSTALLED back in 1968. I've been informed by a long time reputable GTO and Trans am collector that all GTO VINs start with the numbers 242, research this for your own edification. The obvious bad part is the condition of the GTO,...I did not include any photos of the frame because there isn't any frame on the drivers side from the firewall to the front of the rear quarter. The passenger side has some frame rail left (on top) and will keep the rear differential in place as it is towed onto a trailer, flatbed or rollback...but that is the extent of the frame and should be considered of little/no use and needs to be replaced if restored. What you see is what you get...sorry, I do not have any doors, hood, trunk lid, rear bumper, dash or interior parts. Speaking of the dash,...seeing it is obviously missing...I don't know the real mileage so I listed it as 999,999 in the mileage box...(ebay will not permit you to put in "I don't know")...so I'm informing perspective bidders here in the written description. Probably the most parts value are forward of the fire wall,...and in addition to the previously mentioned items, the inner liners, steering box, A arms and other steering/suspension components are in good condition,...other items that may have parts value are the A/C components, wiper motor and of course the VIN# and body tag as previously mentioned. I've had the GTO since 2004, prior to this it was in an old auto junk yard from approximately the late '70s/early '80s. I have no idea what condition the engine, transmission, rear-end or other components are in and the winning bidder should expect that any and all components will need a rebuilding from sitting for years.I've stated all that I know about this GTO as factual as possible. Due to the age and amount of sitting for years, this GTO does not come with any guarantees or warranties expressed or implied and is sold as is where is. For the winning bidder I offer FREE delivery BUT only if you are local and/or up to only 20 miles away. If you are 21-100 miles from the GTO I offer delivery for a fee of $1.00 per mile. I do not offer any delivery options over 100 miles and I certainly do not offer any long haul options from state to state either. Any winning bidder that is in the "over 100 mile category" it is up to you to make shipping arrangements and of course all transportation and shipping costs are the expense of you...(the winning high bidder). At my discretion, I may extend the free delivery from 21-100 miles if the GTO reaches a dollar amount I deem acceptable. Should you use your own trailer/equipment to pickup the GTO,...I offer FREE loading assistance to you with my Rollback and equipment,...or I'll assist the carrier of your choice (should you hire one),...also FREE of charge . PLEASE NOTE;...the state of Maine does not/will not issue a title for ANY automobile/vehicle of 1995 or prior. I do not have a title and the (GTO) comes with a bill-of-sale as ownership. ADDITIONAL NOTE;...some states will not accept a bill-of-sale as ownership of a vehicle,...please check with your individual state. FOR THOSE PERSPECTIVE BIDDERS THAT FIT INTO THIS LAST CATEGORY,...please let me know and I can contact the state of Maine and they will issue a legal typed document for ALL 50 STATES so that you can take THIS DOCUMENT / PAPERWORK to your state DMV you reside in and YOUR STATE will issue you a new title in your state. I've done this may of times before and this is the only perfectly legal way I know of for bidders from title-demanding states to get a title on a vehicle from a non-title issuing state. I believe the pictures speak for them self, and what doesn't I've included in the typed description,........if you feel I have missed anything or you have any questions what so ever, please feel free to send me an email and I'll answer the question(s) asap. Upon the completion of the auction I ask that the winning bidder commit to the transaction with payment in the form of a $200.00 deposit within 48 hours and follow-up with full payment in 7 days, or contact me for additional time if needed. If you have no intent of following threw with the complete payment of the auction item, please just don't bid and waste everyone's time playing games,...any non paying bidders will be reported to both ebay and all 3 major credit reporting agency's. ********KEEP WATCH,...a lot of interesting older ANTIQUE/CLASSIC AUTOS (1949-1985) better shape than this coming in the next several weeks/months,...ALL of which will start with a modest starting price w/ NO RESERVE!!!******** .....thanks for looking, Bob. |

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:
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.
2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern
Mon, 07 Nov 2011General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.
