Greetings to All!! imotors is quite pleased to offer possibly the nicest 1974 Pontiac Grand Prix Available anywhere! 1974 was the Last model year of regular leaded fuel, and NO catalytic converters!!! This one is equipped with the Pontiac 400 4 Barrel V8 with a Turbo Hydramatic 400 transmission, and straight dual exhaust!!! It is nicely equipped with Factory A/C, Power Windows, Power Trunk Release, and an AM/ FM Radio. Buckets and a console make it that much more desirable!!! Pontiac lovers everywhere get weak in the knees when one like this becomes available. A One family owned, always serviced Grand Prix that was apparently treated like one of the family! Examples like this one are unheard of!
This 1974 Pontiac Grand Prix was purchased on August 7, 1974 at Jack Roley Pontiac in Belle Vernon, Pa. It has spent it's entire life in the area, always garaged and pampered by it's original owners in Charleroi, Pa. Purchased as a gift for his loving wife to drive the short distances to the grocery store and church on Sunday. After He passed, it basically was retired to the garage where I found it. It had been sitting, unused since 2001. There are many detailed photos below, along with the last state safety inspection invoice dated December 12, 2001 with 34,936 miles. It had only been driven TWO(2) miles since the previous years inspection in 2000. I have many many years of past invoices documenting the low low mileage that will accompany the car, along with it's original license plate(photo below). We also have all of the owners books, AND the factory issued window sticker listing the many options!
Since awakening, we have replaced the battery, and changed the oil and oil filter(Brad Penn with Zinc). The air filter is also new, along with all 8 A/C spark plugs. We also replaced the radiator, upper and lower hoses, and all three fan belts. The tires were new sometime in 2001, and are a tad on the lumpy side. As I drive the car, they seem to be improving. Replacement is recommended for long distance driving.
This Gorgeous 1974 Grand Prix runs and drives fantastic. I have put close to 100 miles on it. It shifts nice and smooth, and there are no shakes, vibrations, or unpleasant noises!! The A/C blows nice and cold, and is still charged with R12. The front radio speaker is dead, but the rear sounds great. Everything else works as it did in 1974. The Colonial Gold paint is 90% original, as is the Black interior. Chrome and brightwork is gorgeous with no pitting anywhere. There is one small rust blister on the bottom of the passenger front fender. Underneath is as nice as above, with no rust or rot anywhere!!
Remember....They are original only Once!!!
Take a look at the 50 plus photographs below and see the actual pristine condition of this One of A Kind Pontiac Grand Prix.
By bidding you agree to all terms set forth below.
Many Thanks for Your Interest! Good Luck with Your Bidding!! |
|
Our Colonial Gold Grand Prix was purchased new in August of 1974 at Jack Roley Pontiac in Belle Vernon, Pennsylvania
|
You can tell by the condition of the Original paint that this Beauty was Always Garaged and Pampered!!
|
There is a small ding in the left rear quarter panel. Paintless dent removal should remove this easily! |
|
The Original Colonial Gold Paint Just Glistens in the sun. Pretty much the same way it did 40 years ago!! A few minor nicks and scratches from normal usage, but certainly nothing to deter from the Beauty and Originality of This 1 Owner GP!!
|
|
Note the absence of pitting.......Simply amazing for a 40 year old car!
|
|
In this Photo you can see the last time it was registered and licensed.......Also included is the original license plate that was issued in 1974.
|
The exterior is in fantastic condition and is certainly commensurate with the low mileage and excellent care our Gorgeous Grand Prix has seen throughout its 40 year life.
|
No rust bubbles under the vinyl top!!
|
|
When was the last time that you saw one this nice and original?? |
|
Small blister on the passenger fender!
|
|
I drove these cars in my youth, as I am sure you did also!!! I had a 1973, and a 1975 when I was in my twenties...a VERY long time ago!
|
|
The black pin stripes were painted on at the factory FORTY years ago!!
|
|
The front bumper fillers could use paint. I decided to leave it original, and let the new owner decide!!
|
|
The chrome front bumper is also free of pitting!
|
|
Filler needs painted here also
|
|
This is one Gorgeous Grand Prix!!
|
How Beautiful is that dash??!
|
Note how clean the jambs are all around!
|
They are only original once!!!!
Truly a Pampered and Pedigreed Grand Prix!!
|
I would guess that this is one of the best survivors out there!!
|
Radial tuned suspension........A Pontiac exclusive!
|
Look at that wood console.......Awesome!
|
This was mighty special in 1974.....when the bench seat was common!
|
Factory Air Conditioning AND AM FM Radio.....WOW!!!

It appears that the water pump was replaced at sometime, along with some hoses and clamps
!
This was around the drivers sunvisor when new!!
This is the last of the receipts. I have many years of these, documenting mileage, and care. It was only driven TWO miles since last inspection a year previous!!
|
The original license plate, as noted on the early service receipts....I just LOVE history and documentation!!

The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own. Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel. The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.

During the middle to late 1980s, General Motors made a big push to grab back some of the sales swiped by makers of European luxury machinery during the previous decade. Around the top of the prestige pyramid, there was the Turin/Hamtramck-built Cadillac Allante taking aim at the Mercedes-Benz 560SEC and the super high-tech Buick Reatta trying to seduce away BMW and Jaguar shoppers; even the Riviera offered a futuristic touchscreen computer sorely lacking in anything out of Stuttgart or Bavaria. The General had a plan to take on the smaller German sporty sedans, too, and Pontiac of the "We Build Excitement" era offered a midsize sedan packed with modern hardware at a great price: the 6000 STE. Here's one of the rarest 6000 STEs of them all, an all-wheel-drive-equipped '89 found in a Denver-area yard last week. Any 6000 STE is extremely hard to find today; when I wrote about a front-wheel-drive 1987 6000 STE back in 2018, desperate owners of these cars filled my inbox with requests — sometimes demands — for parts that continue to this day. Many of them pleaded with me to help them find an all-wheel-drive version, and now I have managed to find one at Colorado Auto & Parts in Englewood, just south of Denver (in fact, the same yard at which I shot the '87). You may recall CAP as the old-school yard whose owners built the amazing airplane-engined 1939 Plymouth pickup a few years back. The all-wheel-drive system on the 6000 STE was introduced for the 1988 model year, and it became standard equipment on the 1989 STE. At this time, the automotive industry had taken note of the success of the idiot-proof all-wheel-drive systems offered by AMC and Audi/Volkswagen; Toyota began selling Americans all-wheel-drive Camrys, Celicas, and Corollas, while Ford offered the Tempo and Topaz with optional AWD and Subaru was just beginning to make the switch from manually-selected four-wheel-drive to genuine all-wheel-drive around that time (it took a few more years for everyone to standardize on the 4WD/AWD terminology we use today, though). The 6000 STE AWD was intended to compete with such all-wheel-drive-equipped sedans as the Audi 80 ($23,610), Audi 90 ($28,840), and BMW 325iX ($30,750); its $22,599 price tag (about $50,700 in 2021 dollars) certainly made it seem like a bargain compared to those cars. In addition to the all-wheel-drive system, 1989 6000 STE owners got a digital instrument panel and more switches and buttons than the Space Shuttle.

There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues. Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500. The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.
