My first car was a 70 model J. I was a terror in that car. It was a little slow off the line cause it was so heavy. But once that 4 barrel carburetor kicked in it was see you later. 😎
I have a black one. My Dad bought it brand new in 1971.... It's what I drove when I was 16 to 18 yrs of age. The speedometer goes to 140. On a nice cold day I could get 145 out of it easy !!! Bad Ass my friend. My brother and I are almost finished with full restoration. I love it. 1971 Pontiac J... Black w/gold pinstripes original. 400 4 barrel original carb. We've had it bored out and now it's a 455 with aluminum heads and brand new headers. It's an absolute Beast !!!
Yours sounds nicer than this one after what they did to screw up a great car. The wheels, steering wheel, and the instrumentation are all really bad on an otherwise great car. Did you see the lights going crazy while he was driving it? I would turn them off in order to not get a headache! Enjoy your Black Beauty. She sounds like a gorgeous car.
Nice, I owned a 72 GP Model SJ for 14yrs. Easily drive 100 mph + with just one finger on the steering wheel that's how nice it drove on the highway. I rebuilt the 455 engine about 30 yrs ago and now have it in my 71 Firebird. Too bad I drove it a lot in WNY back then and it was too far gone to restore and nobody makes any aftermarket body panels. Really cool looking car with luxury and power, wouldn't mind getting a Hurst 72 SSJ.
Thats when they build cars with awesome lines , i have one i bought while stationed at Dover Air Force Base , DEL .Still have it and it drives great . Hope someone gives that a nice home
1:46 I still remember my next-door neighbor describing the door handles on his father's new GP as "groovy". They were probably a little impractical on an icy morning, but they, along with the flush bumpers, roll-down rear windows and long wheelbase gave those early GPs a whole lot more personality than the more ordinary models from '73 on.
That is one Beaty. I used have one when I was young. It was my 1st car. 1974 GP. 454 with 400 transmission. Boy was she beautiful. I sold it then for $600.00 . Now Look how much thy go for...
Pontiac Grand Prix’s are very kool Cars!! I have a 2008 Grand Prix GXP, it’s fast, very kool and a Hot Car to have will still out run cars of Today, no brag!! Just fact!!!!
0:50 Look at that giant fan shroud. I remember a similar one on the Monte Carlos. Delorean, being a car guy, was probably uncomfortable putting such a long nose on a car with a short V8, but he knew the public would pay more if it looked like something Daddy Warbucks' chauffeur would drive.
great job on car. little to much customizing on a classic car. hotchkis suspension and oversize wheels ruins car. dont think makes car more desirable. never get money back on upgrades. just like a big stereo.
Beautiful car, except for those ugly rims, nice set of original Pontiac Rally Sport wheels would look better. I also prefer the old school orange Pontiac Dash Cluster, but thats just me. I am sure this car will sell in no time.
The gran prix is often overlooked. That car is classy & can run with the best of them. Nicely done. I would put original wheels back on.
Ditto, You're exactly correct. Put the original Pontiac wheels on it, & take that stupid steering wheel off

That just what LED's look like on camera. Its unnoticeable to the naked eye.

Gone are the days of beautiful lines and clean looks. Such a classy car. Reminds me of a stutz bearcat. Beautiful.
Actually, Stutz Blackhawks in the 70's
were built on a grand prix chassis!
Man I just love the Pontiac Grand Prix, I had a 1977 one!!!
The old duzenburg style. I owned one after the army. Beautiful brown color with a 400 motor. The thing scooted. Memories
Beautiful , I can’t believe how big the cars were back then. Lol huge
Holy Shit! That car is the definition of pristine.

Greg is the door jamb man... great job. Sweet car. Sensible restomod.
I owned one
Loved it
First time I drove 120 mph
Beautiful car but I prefer the original steering wheel
They dont build them like that anymore.
Beautiful I must say....At 17 I had a 72 gp..Back in 91-92..

Did you mean 455? 454(c.i.) is a Chevy big block.
Had the same mill as the gto 71 72. Best friend had one in the eighties when we were teenagers
Stunning car, gentlemen. It’s so beautiful I can get past the Hip Hop wheel rims.

Yeah the supercharged 3800 is a very nice motor. I belong to a Chevy cavalier club. Some people stuff this motor into cavaliers

He modeled it after the Duesenbergs. Even down to the models J and SJ. Entire 69 model year going forward was a Duesenberg tribute car.
I had this car,same color with the 400, loved that grill and boat tail
Traded it for a 84 red Fiero in Dallas,TX should have kept this thing and put it in storage!
So you're saying this was a factory color for the 72 GP?
Vehicular Perfection, I love it!
Beautifully Unique....
Beautiful
No tilt wheel... Bummer... Love to put the wheel down like my old 72.....
That thang she’s fine this old school momma another GP but she’s fine.
Congratulations!
I wonder what it looks like today?
Wonderful!!!
I want it
Nice
Been looking for 69-70.....BUT this one is sweet, too nice to pass up, under 40?
