To start with, let me first
say that I understand that there is a lot of information in my ad. I also
understand that this may be boring to the person who is just looking and not
buying. However, for the person who is looking to buy and spend their hard earned
money, I feel that there is never too much information. As to myself, I am not a
dealer, just a (63) year old kid that still loves muscle cars. I am now
retired, having managed a Correctional Facility here in Maine and worked for
the Maine Department of Corrections for over (40) years. I am also a respected
member of my community. I mention this only because of the value of this car
and so that prospective buyers will have some idea as to who they are dealing
with. Also, please check out my eBay feedback which is 100% with (1,039)
transactions. Many of those have been muscle cars which I have sold to
individuals all over the country as well as As to this Grand Prix that I
am selling, it is for the wife of a person I worked with for the last 15 years
who unexpectedly passed away a few months ago. He was a true GM man and this
particular car was his baby and was the one car he always told me he would
never sell and he stuck to his word to the end. My hope is that it will be
passed on to another family who will love it and care for it as this family has
done for the past 38 years. The reality is that you simply do not find all
original, low mileage, classics like this anymore. And when you do, you need to
treat them as you would a piece of fine art. That is how I feel about all of
these classic cars (fine art) as once they are gone, they are gone forever. The 1975 GP was essentially a
carry-over from 1974, in terms of styling. The few changes made were
concentrated in the grille, which received fewer vertical slats, and in the
taillights, which were now more vertical. Okay, let's go back to 1975
for a moment. “Love Will Keep us Together” by Captain and Tennille, was Billboards
number one song and who could forget the Reds beating the Red Sox in 7 games
for the World Series? In that same year, in Rockland Maine, a local gentleman
was sitting in Moody Pontiac waiting to take home his new 1975 Grand Prix LJ.
You didn’t have to check too many boxes as the LJ model was already loaded. He
drove that car home and told his wife that he would never sell his beauty and
he kept his word all of those 38 years. This car was loved and cared for like
part of the family. Never driven in the winter or inclement weather. Yes the
wipers were used occasionally when the car was caught in a small rain burst but
that is the only time it would see rain. Obviously stored most of its life as
is indicated by the extremely low mileage, the car was actually placed on
blocks during the winter months to ensure that the spring tension would not be
effected. So for your consideration is
this one-owner, beautiful and original 1975 Pontiac Grand Prix LJ with
the 455 4BBL engine and automatic transmission. The odometer shows 21,887 miles
which is completely original. The Grand Prix LJ has all original "rust
free" body panels and undercarriage. Including all of the standard options as well as the
sun roof, the LJ option added the following amenities to an already loaded
car: · Power Door Locks; · Power Windows; · Cordova Top; · Added Acoustic Installation; · Luggage Compartment Trim; · Lamp Group; · Cornering Lamps; · Sport Mirrors; · LH Visor Mirror; · RH Visor Mirror; · Litter Container; · Custom Finned Wheel Covers; · Spare Tire Cover; · Bumper Guards. Normally, this is where I go into all of the casting
numbers and dates to prove originality or not as well as comments on the overall
condition of different areas of the car. However, I will not waste your time with
this Grand Prix LJ. Virtually all areas and major components are in very good
to excellent original condition including hoses, trim, rims and tires. My Comments: Are you serious! I personally have never seen a more original, one-owner classic muscle car than this 1975 Pontiac Grand Prix LJ. Enough said. Look at the photos and video and see for yourself. If you are looking for a winter beater, this is not for you. If you are looking for a real classic, this car is definitely for you.
Also, please don't forget that any and all original documentation when and if found will be sent to the new owner ASAP. As
with all of the cars that I sell on eBay, the easiest way for a prospective
buyer to get a sense for my cars is with tons of information and loads of
photos and a video. Feel free to ask any questions and I will do my best to
answer them and respond ASAP. Here is the link to the video:

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
2.1 million vehicles recalled again over faulty airbags
Sat, Jan 31 2015Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Honda and Toyota will recall 2.1 million vehicles to fix faulty airbag modules "after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles." These vehicles had all previously been recalled, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that the airbags could still potentially malfunction. This recall will cover Acura MDX, Dodge Viper, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Honda Odyssey, Pontiac Vibe, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Matrix and Toyota Avalon models made in the early 2000s. NHTSA has reportedly received about 40 reports of airbag deployment in such vehicles, even though the vehicle had not been involved in a crash. Roughly one million of these same vehicles, all from Honda and Toyota, are also subject to recalls due to faulty Takata airbag modules, though this particular recall is for "an electronic component manufactured by TRW" that is separate from the actual airbags from Takata. According to NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind: "This is unfortunately a complicated issue for consumers, who may have to return to their dealer more than once. But this is an urgent safety issue, and all consumers with vehicles covered by the previous recalls should have that remedy installed. Even though it's a temporary solution until the new remedy is available, they and their families will be safer if they take the time to learn if their vehicle is covered and follow their manufacturers' instructions. A hassle is much better than a family tragedy." If you're the owner of an affected car, expect to hear more from the official automaker and government channels in short order. In the meantime, we'd suggest getting your car checked and fixed at your local dealer. The official statement and recall information can be found below. Previously Recalled Vehicle Remedies Not Working as Designed; NHTSA Announces Follow up Recall of 2.12 Million Cars and SUVs Saturday, January 31, 2015 Contact: Gordon Trowbridge, 202-366-9550, Public.Affairs@dot.gov WASHINGTON – U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx announced today the recall of more than 2.12 million Acura, Dodge, Jeep, Honda, Pontiac, and Toyota vehicles for a defect that may cause airbags to deploy inadvertently. The recalls will provide vehicle owners with a new remedy after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles.
Want to buy a worst-in-show-winning Faux Ferrari Fiero?
Mon, Aug 31 2020UPDATE: This heap sold for $5,001. But don't fret, there are more terrible cars out there for the taking if that's your thing. Today we bring you something truly terrible. It's not just a fake Ferrari built on the guts of an old Pontiac Fiero, it's actually the world's worst fake Ferrari built on the guts of an old Pontiac Fiero. And it's got the award from the Concours d'Lemons to prove it. It's so heinous, in fact, that it has somehow managed to become desirable, at least judging by the bidding history of this bright red affront to Maranello. Powered by a 140-horsepower 2.8-liter V6 engine (covered by an unconvincing and broken fake V12 cover) hooked to an automatic gearbox, this gloriously poor Prancing Horse won't be winning many stoplight drag races. There are bundles of stray wires hanging down from the dashboard, it has high mileage, most of its lights don't work, and it's ugly. Like, really ugly. And to top it off, this Fauxrarri can't currently be registered in its home state of California because it has failed its most recent smog test. Put simply, you're looking at a total piece of junk. But a piece of junk with internet notoriety, having been featured on an episode of Jay Leno's Garage after attending the 2019 Quail Motorsports Gathering — by mistake at first, and then earning a special place next to the porta potties — being the focus of a video series on YouTube and winning the aforementioned ribbon for Worst in Show at Lemons. Somehow, bidding has topped $4,000 at the time of this writing. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
