HISTORY

I recently purchased this car from a couple that are now in their very late 70s along with their 64 sunflower yellow GTO and their 74 Cameo White Grand Prix SJ both under 12,000 miles . They never traded in a car. Over the last several years it became harder for the elderly couple to keep up with all these cars but they did the best they could as they sat in the 4 bay garage the owner built for his beloved Pontiacs.These cars were NEVER offered or advertised for sale. A true American Picker type story.

THE CAR ITSELF

You are looking at an all Original including paint very desireableRUST FREE 77SJ triple black t top with yes 12,325 ORIGINAL MILES, NOT 112325. The paint is still very good and has a brilliant shine and there is no sun fade on hood or trunk. There are though some areas where the paint has started checking as was common with these 77 GM laquer paint jobs. There is also about a 3 inch scratch on the right front fender and some dings on that wheel well molding from the previous owner scraping the garage pulling out. The chrome and other stainless trim are in very good condition.The headlight bezels which still house the original headlights are like new. The bumper fillers are not cracked and still look new.The padded landau top is excellent with a nice lustre and no cracks or bubbles.ALL the glass is original with no chips in the windshield and no scratches on the side glass.The T Tops are not scratched. As you can see the interior is like new with no rips or tears or wear on piping on drivers seat. the carpet is not faded. The dash has no cracks and the dash bezel and console look like a car with 12,395 miles. The engine compartment and trunk are also very clean and neat and still has its original spare tire. The undercarraige has minor surface rust only. If you are really knowledgeable on these 77s and know what you are looking at and where to look you have no doubt the miles ARE 12,325 The SJ comes with the original title, factory invoice, and all original owners manuals and sales literature from 1977. A picture with the original owners standing by the SJ 2 days after they purchased it in 1977 is included.

THE MECHANICALS

Everything except the clock is in excellent working order, heat, the AC which has been converted to the new system and blows cold. The radio 8 track play crystal clear.The windshield wipers are still the original stainless with new rubber. The waterpump, thermostat, and alternator are less than 6 months old.The AC delco battery, the entire exhaust system, and the BF Goodrich TAs are less than 2 years old. I had the car tuned up, oil and oil filter, fuel filter, and air filter changed 2 weeks ago.The SJ has NO fluid leaks. All AC Delco parts were used. This SJ sounds and runs and rides like new.

Ask yourself this ,when will another 77SJ Triple Black T Top with so few miles come along again???

****ALL INSPECTIONS TO BE DONE PRIOR TO AUCTION END

Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO

Thu, 08 Aug 2013

Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
