1969 Pontiac Grand Prix "LOADED J".... I guess they "ran out of SJ's" it was "cheaper to insure a J", or some other story that makes you feel good, but any color you want to paint it, it's got the good options, which are: 428 engine, Power: Seat, Steering, Brakes, Trunk, Door Locks. A/C, Rear speaker, gauges (oil temp battery)

428 is completely rebuilt that was running totally fine when pulled out...it smelled like burning oil off the hot engine and it bothered me...

Rebuilt transmission by same shop here in Boise.

Completely rebuilt front end, bushings ball joints, steering controls, springs, kyb shocks front and rear, brakes, brake lines, alignment etc.....

Rotors were not changed, should be original to the car.

Vinyl top was replaced by my Dad for my birthday about 11 years ago, (there is a blue note in the paperwork saying happy birthday David) but the car has been driven less than 1500 miles since and stored inside my shop since then.

Tires are really nice, not many miles on them. Car came with 14" wheels, but I put 15" wheels on it a few years ago.

I asked nearly every year about the car for 6 years 1994- 2000. The old couple finally agreed to sell it to me....go out and look at it and make us an offer.... When I opened the hood, I saw the chrome air cleaner and valve covers. It was "her car", not his. They said it was in a parking lot accident at Albertsons in the 70's and the daughter added remembering hearing "whoever owns the green Pontiac Grand Prix" over the intercom of the store.... it was hit behind the driver's door, you can see the paint spot fix job in the photos. They kept all the paperwork for the car in a file which I will include...and try to ad that photo that I just took.. and I CANT FIND THE PAPERWORK FOR THE WORK I HAD DONE... it may be at work with the title in the safe.. when I know more on this I will put it in the description....but can tell you it was about $8000.00 parts and labor here by a well known shop in town.. (the owner has properly restored several of his own GTO's, one or two are "Judges") Many dates and mileage on the paperwork showing its original...not 213k.

Examples- MILES- in 1973 -34,231, in 1975 - 48,500 in 1976- 62,400, in 1981 - 74,100 miles, in 1988 92,000 The car was licensed till 1995 or 1996, but not driven much. The car had about 106K miles on it when I got it about 13 years ago and it has 113K miles now. I took the motor out in about 2005 or 2006. This was my daily driver for less than a year, and a hit and miss driver for the other 5 years or so....typical for me, I change cars often.

It was kept under a large open garage next to the house by the previous owners. I have about 45 receipts/repair bills/parts lists/shop order forms etc from about 1973 to current. I call this car a survivor. It has some paint blemishes for sure (paint is thin, wore off, and bad in areas), but its got a majority of the paint the factory put on it, and I like it the way it is. It requires a lot less babysitting and worrying. The trunk has the original cardboard panels on the sides and has ZERO RUST- NONE. The inside of car has ZERO RUST, often times car sweat inside and all the metal under the dash and under all the vinyl etc is rusty and gross. THIS CAR IS NOT A RUST BUGGY. It's a dry Boise, Idaho car, it does have very minor rust on the body, very minor....

The interior is nice...front door panels have minor cracks, and small wear spot on the drivers seat. I would not enjoy the car any more if I painted it or fixed the minor things on the interior. Carpet is in super shape..not tired or worn out. There is still and inspection sticker on the inside of the windshield from 1974 if I remember right....

I backed the car in my garage about 7 years ago, and was annoyed with the smell of oil burning off the engine, it ran strong, had no knocks, no smoke etc. I should have just fixed the oil leaks ... but ... 6 years later, I got it back on the road. I did not install the engine and transmission. I did pull both... but had the shop that rebuilt both install them and never had either in my possession from time I dropped them off about 6 or 7 years, I brought the shop my car when they were ready ( yes, it was a long time, but that was the agreement..) "I will rebuild it, but no set time that it would be done" They installed them at that time....when they were done. The total for the labor and engine and transmission was around 8000.00 I paid 2500 down and about 5500 balance.....I had two yellow receipts that I thought were in the car, but cant find them, I will ask the shop if they have a copy....and give the shops info upon request of coarse.

I have driven the car less than 1000 miles since the installation, and its for sale now because it does not bring me the joy I imagined it would.

I know it's a very loaded J, and it came this way, it's not a Plain Jane car with added options. It NEEDS: a front seal on the transmission replaced. If is sits for about a week or 10 days it leaks out about 1/2 a quart, and has since the day I drove it home. The transmission shifts strong and works just as it should but needs the cable adjusted so when putting it in park, its actually in park, it will click on a slight hill. It had a new master cylinder on it when I got it back, but it slowly goes to the floor, so it needs a new one, its still very driveable, but not really safe. It has a gas leak when filling the tank up, but if it has less than (approx 10 gallons) it does not. Its been this way since I got it back.

The exhaust is older and will need whatever you fancy, put on someday. I would not enjoy the car any better if it had new exhaust. The battery is new, the underside of the car is in SUPER SHAPE. The engine and components should be as it came from the Factory. There are a couple plug/wires for accessories that are not plugged in, I do not know why or what, but it's extremely limited...perhaps only one after looking closely.

I do not have the 14" wheels, I think I sold them, don't recall. The carpet is very nice, no rot, rips or tears, and its original. Original floor mats in the front, no back ones. I am likely missing something, but this is the best description I can give.

If you are wondering why I never took it back to have the trans leak fixed, you would have to know me, but I refuse to return things, and did mention it to an employee a week after I got it back ( he was looking a parcel of land I had for sale), but just never took it in. Good luck buying and or bidding, the car is here to sell, its not just for sale and I will not relist it week after week trying to get every last penny out of it.

I bought a 64 Catalina safari and it will take this cars place. I have put a tremendous amount of money and time into this car, and am ready to lose money, but no more time, so PLEASE, dont waste it, bid to buy, don't delay in putting the immediate deposit down and paying for it. The car can stay here for 2 months, no charge-

I will not let you come here and restore it or take a shower and have dinner here either....that would be annoying. It needs to be paid for within a week. You can't show up and pay for it or change your mind after you bid/buy it. If I wanted to deal with all that goes with selling a car that way, i would put a retail price on it and wait until someone came along that just had to have one of these cars with these options...they are out there...the cars, and the buyers for them.... Either way, you will be getting this car for far less than my recent repair bill, so you should be very happy with the car. PLEASE WATCH CLOSELY. I have a history of lowering the buy it now or reserve (not sure how I will list it just yet) but I have done this in the past to get things sold and over-with... so watch closely. I may deliver the car to a neighboring state or perhaps a little further.. just make an offer. It would be trailered and delivered...perhaps late at night if that would work out for me.... I am likely missing some things..but this is better than most dealer or private seller descriptions...they leave out the bad things it seems... and the photos all seem to make things look better than they are. This is not a repainted cover up job car. You will not be overpaying for a cheap paint job, or have to deal with greasy front end parts, greasy engine compartment etc. It was all scrubbed and cleaned and painted when the engine was out.

I think the car was built in Pontiac Michigan....just in case that matters.

I called the shop that did the motor, transmission and install. They will have a copy of all the work that was done in detail. They keep copies on file, so its not a problem.

Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO

Thu, 08 Aug 2013

Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.

Junkyard Gem: 2010 Pontiac G6

Sat, Sep 12 2020

What makes a discarded car a gem? Sometimes it's a car we all agree is very cool, and other times it's a car that tells us something about automotive history. Today's Junkyard Gem is the latter type: one of the very last Pontiacs sold, before The General shut out the lights forever on the storied marque after 84 years. The G6 was Pontiac's Epsilon-platform-based car, sibling to the Chevy Malibu, Saturn Aura, and Saab 9-3 (plus a bunch of Europe-only machinery). The very last Pontiac ever built was a white 2010 G6 sedan like this one (all '10 G6s were sedans, the coupe and convertible having been nixed in 2009), though that car was built in January of 2010 and this one came off the line in July of 2009. They build Bolts at the Orion Assembly plant these days. The higher-zoot G6s came with V6s or even V8s, but this car has "fleet machine" written all over it and has the base 2.4-liter Ecotec four-banger making 164 horsepower. Pontiac shoppers in the United States could buy the Vibe as a 2010 model as well, while Mexican Pontiac dealerships also sold new G2s (known as the Spark here) that year. The G6 was The Final Pontiac, though, bookending a run that began with the 1926 Pontiac Six. This one will go to its grave with the original owner's manual still inside. Even the cheapest 2010 G6s came with an AUX jack for the radio, a feature that was still maddeningly hard to find in rental cars a decade ago. This content is hosted by a third party.

Burt Reynolds' personal 1977 Trans-Am from Smokey And The Bandit for sale

Fri, Dec 5 2014

Smokey and the Bandit is one of those quintessential 1970s car movies with insane premises but tons of fun. After all, the basic plot of the film is about distracting the police to transport cases of Coors beer cross country. While Burt Reynolds receives top billing, the real star is definitely his black Pontiac Trans-Am. Now, there's a chance to posses one of these muscle machines actually owned by Reynolds, and it's already proving quite popular. The car is a '77 Trans-Am with the famous, gold screaming chicken proudly on the hood. However, while this is a piece of Reynolds memorabilia, it's not really part of cinematic history. According to the listing, this example was used as a promotional vehicle and then given to Reynolds with a title showing him as a previous owner for proof. Still, there's 400-cubic-inch (6.55-liter) V8 under the hood with a 4-barrel carburetor and an automatic transmission. A plaque inside the driver's door proclaims the car as a "1977 Pontiac Trans Am Owned By Burt Reynolds," and there's a Bandit logo on the door. This is just one lot of Julien Auction's sale of Reynolds memorabilia on December 11 and 12 at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, NV. Bidding is already running online, and the Trans-Am is up to $130,000, as of this writing. For the true Reynolds fanatic, the auction also lists the motorized stagecoach from his wedding to Loni Anderson. It rides built on an International Harvester Scout frame with an interior reportedly from Dolly Parton.
