1976 Pontiac Grand Prix LJ Additional Info:
HISTORYTHIS RUST FREE . LJ PURCHASED FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNERS (FATHER/SON) WHO ARE A TRUE PONTIAC FAMILY AND ALSO OWNERS OF AN ALL ORIGINAL 69 TRANS AM AND AN ALL ORIGINAL 73 GRAND AM. THE ORIGINAL OWNER STATED IT WAS ALWAYS GARAGE KEPT NEVER DRIVEN IN WINTER THOUGH SPENT ITS LIFE IN A MILDER WINTER ENVIROMENT AND WAS HIGHLY SERVICED. IT WAS A CUSTOMER ORDER NOT A DEALER LOT CAR HAS OVER 25 FACTORY OPTIONS INCLUDING RARE HONEYCOMB WHEELS AND ARE LISTED BELOW WITH CODES. THE ORIGINAL OWNER SAID HE ORDERED THE GP WITH THE L75 CODE 455 ENGINE BUT BY THE TIME IT WAS SCHEDULED FOR PRODUCTION THE 455 WAS NO LONGER AVAILABLE IN THE GRAND PRIX AND HAD TO CHANGE THE ORDER TO THE L78 PONTIAC 400 4 BARREL . THOUGH HE HAD SECOND THOUGHTS HE DID NOT ORDER T TOPS AS IT WAS THE FIRST YEAR OFFERED ON A GRAND PRIX AND DUE TO ISSUES HOLDING UP ORDERS AND WITH LEAKING AT THE TIME. HE ORDERED THE VW CODE 2 TONE UPPER CHARCOAL LOWER STERLING SILVER WITH BLACK INTERIOR AS MOST 2 TONE GP S USUALLY SEEN WAS THE WV CODE 2 TONE UPPER STERLING SILVER AND LOWER CHARCOAL WITH THE BRIGHT RED INTERIOR. WHEN THE SON KIND OF TOOK OVER THE LJ WHO IS NOT A YOUNG MAN EARLY 50 S MADE A COUPLE UPDATES WITHOUT AFFECTING LOOKS AS YOU WILL READ FURTHER IN LISTING STEREO SYSTEM AND A LITTLE MELLOWER SOUNDING MUFFLER. THE SON ALSO WANTED TO MAKE SOME OTHER FACTORY LOOK CHANGES REPLACING THE NON WORKING CLOCK WITH FACTORY TACH AND SPORT STEERING WHEEL AND RIGHT HAND REMOTE SPORT MIRROR. FOUND THE PARTS OUT OF AN 21,000 MILE GP AND THE SPORT MIRRO, CABLE AND DASH CONTROL NOS . WITH THE OTHER CLASSICS AS TIME WENT ON NEVER GOT AROUND TO CHANGING. I ACQUIRED THOSE PARTS. LIKE THE ORIGINAL AM/FM STEREO 8 TRACK IF INTERESTED INQUIRE BUT . AND I WOULD SUGGEST FIRST SHOP AROUND FOR AVAILABILITY PRICE AND IF ALL PARTS IN TACT TESTED AND WORKING AS THESE PARTS ARE WIRED WITH PROPER PLUGS AND TESTED.*** COPY OF ALL PHS DOCS, ORIGINAL OWNERS MANUALS SALES BROCHURES, ETC GO WITH SALE****
