1967 Pontiac Grand Prix on 2040-cars
Cleveland, Mississippi, United States
Here is a very straight southern car with original paint and absolutely no rust...NONE! I am third owner. It drives and handles like a new car and can be trusted to go anywhere. It's been kept inside since new and looks to have been pampered. It has the original paint that isn't perfect by any means but hey, it is original. All of the emblems look good with no pitting or oxidation. Front and rear bumpers are straight but the rear bumper could use a plating job. All of the wheel covers are original to the car and look nice. Also, the fender skirts are straight and solid. The seats are original with no tears and the stitching is tight. Springs in the seats are firm also with no sag. I replaced door panels only because the driver side had a very small tear. The carpet had very minimal fading but I replaced it, also. The dash is so soft that you can squeeze it without it cracking.....seats are just as soft. The wood grain on the dash is perfect! The windows (tinted) go up and down like a new car. I sent the tilt column off and had it redone with new wiring, bearings, etc. Also, I sent the AM/FM radio off and had it cleaned and tuned......it works GREAT! The front and rear speakers are new with the factory option front and rear speaker control on front dash. Door, window, and truck seals are new. I removed all hard and flexible air duct from under the dash and cleaned it. The flexible duct under the dash was not hard and dry rotted like most cars, reaffirming what I was told about it being a garage kept car. The original carpet, dash and seats imply the same.
As far as mechanical, the car is near perfect. The original motor was gone through from top to bottom 4500 miles ago. I put a new carburator on the car so I could send the original off to be rebuilt.......both will go with the car. The transmission shifts perfect with the kick down working properly. It has new A/C that blows cold and the climate control works properly. Also, it has a new radiator, new heater core, new starter, new belts and hoses, new wheel cylinders, new brakes, new shocks and springs, new front end, and new Cooper tires (including spare). The hidden headlights work perfectly and open and close evenly with no sagging. All the gauges work except the fuel gauge seems to not be working properly.....probably the float assembly in the tank. I have spared no expense to get this car mechanically sound in every way. With attention to paint, rear bumper, and fuel gauge, this car will be very near perfect. Another car that I've had my eye on for a long time is available and that's the reason for my selling. My reserve is well below what has been spent on the car. Please call me with any and all questions. If I don't answer, leave a message. 662-719-3307 Thanks for looking! |

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC
Thu, 06 Feb 2014We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.
Junkyard Gem: 1987 Pontiac Safari Station Wagon
Tue, Aug 9 2016During the 1960s and 1970s, station wagons based on full-sized Detroit sedans were the default family haulers, and many of those Kingswood Estates and Country Squires and Ambassadors came with unapologetically phony woodgrain-printed exterior paneling and trim. By the late 1980s, however, few were snapping up such wagons, making this '87 Safari that I spotted in a Denver yard an interesting find. Power for this wagon came from a 307-cubic-inch Oldsmobile V8 making 140 horsepower. General Motors used this engine in Buicks, Oldsmobiles, Chevrolets, Pontiacs, and Cadillacs, finally discontinuing production for the 1990 model year. Was the "wood" convincing, even when new? Of course not, but it was a cherished American tradition. Related Video: Featured Gallery 1987 Pontiac Safari station wagon in Colorado junkyard View 18 Photos Auto News Pontiac station wagon
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
