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:

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
The U-2 spy plane needs high-performance cars to help land
Thu, Oct 15 2015Typically, 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.

Destiny: General Motors should bring back Pontiac
Wed, Apr 26 2017Despite having officially left the market in 2010, the Pontiac badge is still a common sight on roadways throughout the United States. Towards the end of its life, Pontiac models were largely rebadged versions of other General Motors vehicles, like the Pontiac G5 and Chevrolet Cobalt. It's sad, but there's no other way to put it; Pontiac was a mere shadow of its former self at the time of its death. Now it's time to revive the legendary brand. General Motors announced it would be reviving the Redline series, a package that originated with Saturn, another dead brand, earlier this year. Some models, like the Chevrolet Camaro will receive unique cosmetic touches designed to make it look even sportier, something Pontiac excelled at in most cases. Gas prices have fallen dramatically in the past few years and consumers have taken notice. Sales of fuel efficient cars, like hybrids and compact sedans, aren't increasing at the same rate as larger, less efficient vehicles, like trucks and SUVs. Muscle cars, like the Ford Mustang, are seeing increasing sales as well. Perhaps it's time to revive Pontiac and restore the marque to its former glory: a brand that brought performance and style at an affordable price. There are currently few manufacturers that offer a true challenge to high-performance automakers like BMW. The German brand continues to see high sales year after year and performance has a lot to do with it. Brand recognition, namely through the BMW badge, plays a major role as well. Pontiac, arguably one of the most well-known brands to ever grace the industry, can match both factors with ease. Pontiac was once revered as a brand that revolutionized the muscle car segment in the 1970s and 1980s. It still has a lively following throughout enthusiast spheres and amongst drivers of all ages to this day. Reviving the brand with a small line of high-performance vehicles would certainly offer a challenge to dominating German brands. A small lineup of affordable vehicles bearing the Pontiac badge and designed for performance and style would certainly make waves in the current market. Reviving a few older nameplates, such as the GTO and Trans Am, would offer nostalgic appeal. Packing both models with a powerful entry-level engine, say the Camaro's turbocharged four-cylinder or V6 engine, would open up the market considerably.
