1962 Pontiac Grand Prix - Cold Ac, Tri Power & 8 Lugs on 2040-cars
Keller, Texas, United States
|
1962 Pontiac Grand Prix – First year of GP and a one year
only body style. Far less common than
63+ with stacked headlights. This car is Grand Prix white over red upholstery. To my knowledge this car started out as a 421
non Air conditioned automatic. It now
has a late 60s 400 with 400 Turbo trans, super authentic 65 Tri Power set up,
with alternator and an aftermarket 60s style UNDERDASH AC which blows
COLD. Compressor was painted satin black
to mimic the original Frigidaire units. So, while not numbers matching, this car is extremely authentic
looking and very very period correct.
Some of the details: ·
Correct 1962 8 lug wheels with correct center
caps/trim rings and period correct red line tires ·
Correct Delco tar Top battery, although it has solid
gel maintenance free guts ·
Correct battery cables ·
Correct hose clamps, be they top post or pinch style ·
Correct Optikleen bottle ·
Correct stainless wipers ·
Correct hoses ·
Correct spark plug wires ·
Correct spark plug wire looms ·
Correct radiator coolant cap ·
Correct radiator coolant tag ·
Correct fuel filter ·
Reproduction carburetor tags ·
Correct chrome valve covers and tall breather ·
Correct decals for rad, fan and battery under hood ·
New under hood insulation ·
Patented “Mouse Trap” seat belt retractors with
correct operational tags ·
Optional Door handle scuff plates ·
Optional Stainless gas tank cap trim ·
Correct console mounted vacuum gage ·
Period correct 120 degree sweep tachometer, steering column
mounted ·
Original clear and red wheel with gold logo Grand Prix
center ·
No glass problems ·
Optional Reel type truck light(not working) ·
Perfect original headliner with 2 side mounted dome
lights ·
Original Pontiac/Delco AM radio in dash. Aftermarket AM/FM stereo in glove box. ·
Vintage decals/stickers in quarter windows and on rear
bumper. All will come off, or keep on
for that authentic look. When is the
last time you saw a cool car on the road with a Goldwater for President sticker? ·
1962 TX plates.
Matching front and rear AC blows
cold, lights/horn works, car runs strong, and paint is very very nice. NO tears in the upholstery, power steering is
tight and car tracts well. Car “needs”
nothing and starts right up. Since 98%
of what can be done is done and I have just retired, it’s time to throttle back
and downsize. My loss is your gain. Go to any car show and be the only one with
an “original” 421 Tri Power AC 8 lug wheel GP in white with a RED interior no
less. You will see far more 409 Chevies
at car shows than 421 GPs. Ask
questions or bid on this rare and great 50+ year old car, which I gotta say is
sold as is. Nick - yellowtestarossa@aol.com |

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile
Sun, 29 Apr 2012Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
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:
