Up for bid is a 1966 Pontiac Ventura Cpe, this is a restoreable car that was started on a few years back. The previous owner put a 400 cid engine in it that is a 1975. The engine needs a valve job but does run, valve seals are shot so it smokes like crazy. The interior needs some work, front drivers seat,rear sail panels, and door panels. The headliner is good, it also need exhaust work. Body was painted years ago, and not a good job, so needs a complete repaint. There are rust bubbles around the drip rails on the roof and some small ones on the rear quarters nothing major. The cars is pretty solid. Bumpers need rechroming both front and rear. Solid frame needing shocks and brake work, solid floors and trunk. I was going to restore this car but father time has crept up on me and I can't get around like I thought I could any More. I can DELIVER the car within 200 miles of the Chicagoland area for fuel cost. This is a good basic car too start with and would be a good father and son project. I have a lot of extra parts that are included. New glove box, wood trim for console, new catalina and venture rear fender emblems. Used tacometer for center console, catalina letters for rear panel and more. Any questions you might have feel free to email me or call me at 708-516-6200 any time before 8:00 PM CST. thanks for looking at me auction.

GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected
Tue, 20 May 2014General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:

Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series
Mon, 10 Mar 2014NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.
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:
