1977 Pontiac Grand Prix Base Coupe 2-door 6.6l on 2040-cars

Year:1977 Mileage:100000
Location:

Salem, Oregon, United States

Salem, Oregon, United States

After much deliberation, it's time to part with my Grand Prix. Some Info on it: It's a 1977 Model, but has 1973 Hood, and Front Header. Body is solid with no rust, paint needs attention, unless you like flat black. T-Tops will leak if you let it sit in the rain for a few hours, they don't leak terribly, but there will be a wet spot on your seat. Car runs and drives beautifully. Lots of torque and will turn the 50 series tires in the rear into smoke if you get into it. I have had this car for quite some time and have done A LOT of work to it. It was a mess when I bought it, but now it's a pretty sweet ride.

Engine:
1976 400 bored /.030 over. Speed Pro Forged Aluminum Pistons
Engine was torn down less than 3000 miles ago, everything spec'ed out good, but it got new rings, new main and rod bearings, timing chain, oil pump and gaskets.
Summit 2800 cam
Edelbrock Performer Aluminum Intake
Ram Air Manifolds (factory headers)
Rochester Quadrajet rebuilt and converted to electric choke
6x-8 Heads. These need new o-rings on the valves (valve seals) as it will blow a puff of smoke on startup after sitting for a few days.
Replaced Starter last year
Replaced Fuel Pump last year

Transmission:
Original Turbo Hydromatic 400 with shift kit-shifts great, no slippage

3.23 Positraction Rear Axle
Hurst Pistol Grip Quarter Stick Shifter
Coil Spring Traction Bars
Appliance Cragar Style wheels 215/65R15 in front 295/50R15 in rear. Front and rear tires are serviceable, but far from new.
Interior is pretty nice, has aftermarket Tachometer and full gauge dash.

Completely new dual exhaust system, installed two months ago.

Engine runs strong, holds great oil pressure, never overheats and is healthy.

Cosmetically, there are some flaws, obviously, and the paint is not great, but if your looking for something that runs great and is just cool, this might be for you.

Car is for sale locally as well.  I will end auction early if it sells local.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013


The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
