1962 Pontiac Grand Prix, Factory 4 Speed, 8 Lug Wheels on 2040-cars
United States
This is a documented 1962 Grand Prix which I purchased almost two decades ago. It has resided in a climate controlled garage since that time and is all original and factory stock. This car is documented with PHS Documents as well as the original buyer's order and 'Dealer Invoice'. These Pennsylvania documents confirms all the options as delineated in the PHS papers and also confirms the original Pennsylvania dealer as per the PHS window sticker. The miles are original and the speedometer has NOT rolled over. I am happy to provide, to the next owner, notarized documents to affirm this claim. In 1962 Pontiac offered the Grand Prix with three high powered engines; the option code 425 @ 318 horsepwoer and the 425A @ 348 horsepower. This is the higher horsepower engine. Built about April of 1962, the 4 speed was a late available option. The car is Bomar Red which Chevrolet called Hondouras Maroon and has an interior to match. This is the real deal and is not a 'built car' to replicate or be a 'tribute' to the real thing. The original rubber factroy floor mats still reside on the floor and appear as new. At 71 years old, I am reducing my collection and am offering it at NO RESERVE for the seven day auction. I will provide, to the new owner, a valid Florida title documenting this mileage as 'actual'. The tri-power engine performs flawlessly and the vehicle displays all factory correct parts which are numbered correct to this vehicle.m All parts are factory Pontiac and the vehicle, from the tri-power air cleaner to the factory dual exhaust is extremely correct. Recent overhaul of the complete brake system, with the correct 'thumb screw' master cylinder has been accomplished. Please view the photos, ask questions and evaluate this factory correct piece of history. Call me for specifics that have not been addressed. Thank you, Respectfully, Wellington Morton (904) 230-4448. (PS: I do not accept PayPal and require cash or certified funds before release of my car. It is expected that transfer will take place in one week following the end of this offering.)
Thank you for your phone inquiry. The carpets are all original and exhibit no wear; same for the door panels and headliner. I can see no wear to the interior arm rests and the steering wheel still has perfect 'clear' Lexon, void or any scars or cracks. And yes that is the factory installed tachometer on the center console. |

Motorweek looks back at the Pontiac Aztek
Thu, Jul 9 2015The Pontiac Aztek has earned a position as this generation's ultimate, automotive punchline. Even other execrable models like the Yugo or Mustang II probably get more respect these days just out of their sheer quirkiness, but the Aztek remains a joke. Fortify your mind for what's coming, though, because the much-maligned Pontiac might not be quite so atrocious, at least according to MotorWeek's latest Retro Review video. MotorWeek calls the Aztek, "GM's first true crossover vehicle," and it's amazing to think of the hated model as a progenitor of one of the most popular segments today. While admitting that the looks are polarizing, John Davis and company actually come away pleased with the Aztek's utility. They praise that there's a ton of room in the back, and the interior is packed with useful features like a removable cooler in the center console and radio controls in a cargo area. The show is even impressed with how the Pontiac drives and throws around accolades like "nimble" and "pleasant." After seeing the Aztek leading the pack on lists of the worst vehicles of all time for years, listening to it get such effusive praise is actually quite jarring. Could we all be so wrong? No, there's absolutely no debate that this is still a hideous automobile. However, MotorWeek asserts a complete reversal of the generally perceived wisdom about the early CUV. While unexpected, thinking about such an abhorred model in a different way is a cool experience. Check out the video for a different take on the Aztek.
Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.
Junkyard Gem: 1987 Pontiac Firebird
Sat, May 9 2020From 1967 through 2002, the Pontiac Division offered the Firebird, close sibling to the Chevrolet Camaro. By the third generation, which debuted for the 1982 model year, it became more difficult to tell the two F-body cars apart at a glance and the Pontiac-exclusive engines of the earlier years disappeared, but the Firebird still retained its own personality and its own position in the GM marketing hierarchy. I still find the occasional 1982-1992 Camaro as I search car graveyards for interesting stuff, but the corresponding Firebirds have become scarce in recent years. Here's a base-engine-equipped '87, its Bright Red paint (yes, that was the official name for the color) faded by the Colorado sun as it awaits the crusher. Firebird shoppers had their choice of three engines in 1987: A 5.7-liter Chevy V8 (210 hp), a 5.0-liter Chevy V8 (205 hp) and the same 2.8-liter 60° V6 that went into the Fiero and countless front-drive GM sedans (135 hp). This car has the base engine. The third-gen F-body didn't weigh much (3,105 pounds for the '87 with six-banger, about what a 2020 Corolla weighs), so 135 horses was tolerable. Plenty of these cars got T-5 5-speed manual transmissions, but this one got the two-pedal setup. Camaro wheels, of course. Our Friend the Carburetor didn't disappear from new cars until the early 1990s in the United States, though electronic fuel injection had become very commonplace by 1987. Still, GM considered this car's EFI worth a door-handle brag. It's not worth fixing up a mashed six-cylinder third-gen Firebird, so we can see the route this car took to its final parking space.
