Unmolested 1979 Pontiac Grand Lemans Safari station wagon- sister car to the Chevy Malibu . Odometer reads 135,000 miles from second owner since 1981. Has the 301 V-8 that runs whisper quiet and three speed automatic transmission that functions well. Yes, it has rot contained to one area only - the passenger side rear frame rail bottom is typically punky between the rear part of the wheel well towards the bumper mount. The sides of the rail are still intact and have intergrity. The bottom, as you can see pictured, as typically found in G-bodies, collected the gutter side road debris and never really got purged. It is a commonly repaired area and this chassis is certainly deserving. It takes away no integrity of the ride quality or safety. There are no other rotted out sections of the car , body or chassis. I have not cleaned the car in any way so as to retain the way the previous elderly owner had kept it - which was pretty darn good. The black paint could easily be polished to a nice shine. The woodgrain laminate is peeling some about its expanse. The car has just about every available interior option including dual remote mirrors and power drivers seat. The upholstery and dash are in good shape. The headliner fabric is unglued from its board. Tires are in nice shape and I believe that it could probably use a brake job or adjustment to the rears sooner than later. Buyer has two weeks for pickup and payment is to be made in hand upon pickup.

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.
2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
Driving Notes
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.
