 you are looking at a 1972 grand prix , this car was bought new in Broken Bow Ok. this car has been in the same family for years , there son got the car at about 101,000 miles on it and drove it for the next few year as weekend driver , he did have the engine rebuild done at about the same time , the tranny has been rebuilt in the last 500 miles and does have a shift kit and a 3000 stall and the car runs  excellent , I did put new plugs and fuel, filter , new rear tires less then 2 miles on them, the front tires are in good shape [not new]  this car was also order with a 12 bolt rear end  limited slip posi ,[ the rims are off a newer model grand prix ]  I did put all new lug nuts when tires and rims went on to this car .

As you can tell there son did start sanding the car for repaint but never finished the car, as his kids got older the car had sat more then drove .

the engine is all stock 400 with a after market intake and carb along with headers and HEI distributor , as you can tell he did not spend much money on the exhaust , the car sounds good but this would need to be changed since this is o.k. for some but not correct at all .

I have put the car on a lift to show the floor pans they are in nice shape  I found one spot on the right side were there is a small spot of rust other wise the floor pans look great , the only other spot I found was under the battery tray small rust hole on inner fender well both of these are easy fixes  look at pics very clean southern  car no winters and parked inside at all times .

There is rust at the base of the vinyl top the rest of the top feels solid,

the doors open and close good the hinges are tight , the right hand door has some minor damage [see pics]  and does open but touches the front fender when opening and closing

the trunk button inside the car works fine  and the stock manifold is in the trunk ,

we drove this car Saturday and it drives nice the shift kit works great as it should .

please look at all pictures , ask questions these car's are getting hard to find in stock shape .

GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns

Sun, 05 Oct 2014

Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.

General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem

Thu, Feb 13 2014

General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.

The U-2 spy plane needs high-performance cars to help land

Thu, Oct 15 2015

Typically, aircraft deploy their landing gear from three main points. Most military aircraft, for example, deploy two gears at the back and one forward, like a tricycle. Some civilian aircraft flip the layout, with two in front and one in back - tail-draggers. The U-2 Dragon Lady is wildly different than any of these. With a 103-foot wingspan but a body that's just 63-feet long, the layout of the U-2 makes a traditional landing setup infeasible. Instead, the U-2 utilizes a pair of wheels, one up front and one in back. With such a bizarre layout, landings are so tough that since the U-2's earliest flights at Area 51, the US Air Force has used high-performance chase cars to guide the pilot down safely. The landing process isn't over there, though. As this video from Sploid shows, balancing out the aircraft to fit the detachable "pogos" – think training wheels for spy planes – is a comical procedure requiring a number of airman using their full body weight to even out the U-2. This video also recaps some of the great vehicles that have served as chase vehicles for this legendary spy plane. They include Chevrolet El Caminos, and the Fox-body Ford Mustangs so favored by the California Highway Patrol. For the last several years, the USAF has utilized products from General Motors, using fourth-generation Chevy Camaros, before switching over to the Pontiac GTO and most recently, the awesome Pontiac G8. It's fair to say that if you're a gearhead in the Air Force, this is the job you want. Check out the video, embedded up top.
