I bought this 1967 Pontiac wagon with the intention of customizing it and using it as my daily driver and work car. I loved the original patina on the outside which I was going to keep as is. My plan was to redo the interior with a new custom ( non original interior ) and redo the car's mechical parts.
So far, I have redone most of the mechanical parts except the suspension -
All fluids have been flushed/refilled. Tuned up, new aluminum rad, belts, hoses, water pump, rebuilt 2 bbl carb ( 400 ci v8 runs great ) new voltage regulator, new alternator, new air cleaner, new hei distributor, platinum plugs and new wires, new master cylinder and brakes and new tires. Car starts up and runs/ great. Car does not drip, leak, smoke. Transmission shifts just fine. The current original interior is all shot and has to be replaced.
So before I redo all the suspension parts and put in a new custom interior ( currently parked at the upholstery/street rod shop ), I am putting it up for sale as is ( I may need the $ to finance the completion of my 1958 Pontiac station wagon restoration instead ). If it sells for my price, great, if not I am keeping it. No trades wanted

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 expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
