For your consideration is a low production inaugural model 1962 Pontiac Grand Prix. In the era it all began, arguably one of the first factory Hot Rods Detroit produced! Equipped with the factory numbers matching block 389 V8 303 H.P. Hydramatic Automatic Transmission, and Safe-T-Track rear, makes this an extremely rare vehicle. Recently installed is a new Tri Power set up, 3 Dueces, or 3 2bbl carburetors. Included in the sale is the original Carburetor, intake, and Air cleaner assembly. This car is virtually a survivor. It has the original interior, and retains all of its original sheet metal, fenders, quarters, floors, & trunk pan and believed to have only been repainted twice over its 52 year history. It also has optional eight-lug aluminum wheels wrapped in four whitewall tires, with the matching spare, jack, & equipment.

Engine Block Stamp reads: 962K2357  (389-303 hp Code 16KJ)

DATA PLATE: Style  62-2947  Body BK 1376

Trim Interior: 298 (Blue)   Paint CC (Cameo Ivory)

Finished in the original color Cameo Ivory and Blue Interior, this Pontiac has a classic look and stance. The body and frame are rust free, with no visible issues such as bubbles, cracks, decay, rust. The engine bay shows very well and finished off to impress. The undercarriage survived all these years to a factory “Ziebart” undercoating which still presents very nicely. The original interior shows great with only minimal wear. The headliner has been replaced at some point over the years. There is a small imperfection on the passenger side seat which is noted in the photos. All of the gauges, lights, turn signals, etc are operational and appear to be accurate. The dash retains the factory radio, but inside the glove box houses a new FM/CD player with Aux Jack to play your favorite tunes. The chrome and stainless all present very well and consistent with the quality of the vehicle. The car runs very well straight down the road. Free of stereotypical classic car shimmy's, shakes, vibrations, rattles, etc. Accelerates like a Tri Power and brakes as it should. The odometer shows 17,607 miles. The Florida title shows mileage exempt. I cannot verify if those are true miles. But from a visual inspection of the vehicle, the condition does not show of one with 117,607 miles.

Even though the Pontiac resembles the Impala’s of the same era, these Grand Prix’s have distinct differences that make them unique and arguably more collectible. Take notice to the Chief head on the speedometer to indicate High Beams. Or the large Tachometer which is mounted right in the middle of the center console. Just a great design from a decade that produced such innovation.

This is a turnkey drive immediately enjoy today driver quality classic automobile. Could not build or restore for the asking price. This Pontiac handles great. Drives straight down the road with a comfortable enjoyable ride. Factory Power Steering adds to the drive-ability factor. Whether you’re looking to win a few trophies at car show, a Sunday driver, or take the family for ice cream, this vintage Pontiac can do it all.

I encourage & welcome pre purchase inspections. I will work with your inspector, appraiser, mechanic, etc to make you feel comfortable with your purchase.

I urge everyone to take a look at my feedback. Bid with confidence! It was 100% until a few weeks ago, when a malicious ebayer left me negative feedback over a $45.00 die cast model car! Apparently, a windshield wiper was damaged in shipping overseas. I attempted to rectify the situation, but the buyer would not respond or contact me at all, and left me negative feedback!

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way

Tue, 21 Feb 2012

There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
