1964 Pontiac Grand Prix
This is a very nice 1964 Pontiac Grand Prix. The car is a 2 door hardtop. She is powered by a 389 cu.in. V-8 with a 4 barrel carb. This is matched with a automatic transmission with a center console shifter. Both the engine and transmission appear to be original but this is not confirmed.
The car has power steering and power brakes. She floats down the Interstate at 70 MPH and with the power options is easy to maneuver in town.
The car has the original factory AC. The unit holds a charge and produces cold air. However, it does not blow with force. I have not had the unit inspected to identify the problem. Anyway, this car was made to drive with the windows down.
The restoration was completed by a previous owner and is still very, very nice. The car was repainted the original factory color which is a Aquamarine. The paint is very presentable with a few minor chips due to the car being driven. The interior is in excellent condition and is either original or a very well done restoration. The interior color matches the paint.
All of the glass is present and there are no cracks or breaks. There is the usual pitting to the windshield. The side windows roll up and down with no problem.
The car rides on new chrome wheels and tires. The front brakes were just completed with new drums, shoes and hoses. New wheel cylinders and wheel bearings were installed at that time.
The original factory radio is in the dash. A newer CD player has been installed in the glove box with kick panel and package tray speakers. There is a amplifier and equalizer installed in the trunk.
The car is not perfect but you will not be disappointed with the comments you get at the local car shows and cruise-ins.
I have described the car to the best of my ability. I urge you to inspect the car in person or through a third party inspector. I will make the car available for inspection during the auction period.
I do not offer shipping on this car. However, I will be happy to work with the shipper of the buyer's choosing. All shipping costs are to be paid by the buyer.
I reserve the right to end the auction early as the car is for sale locally.

GM knew about fatal Chevy ignition problem decade before recall
Fri, 21 Feb 2014Well, this is not good for General Motors. Following a report last week that GM was recalling 778,000 Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 compacts over concerns that the ignition could switch out of the "run" position without warning, USA Today reports that the Detroit-based behemoth knew about the issue, which affected 2005 to 2007 Cobalts (the Cobalt shown above and in the gallery is from 2010) and 2007 Pontiac G5s, all the way back in 2004.
The information comes from a deposition in a civil lawsuit against GM, obtained by USA Today, which claims that a GM engineer experienced the issue while the then-new model was undergoing testing. The issue was "solved" when a technical service bulletin was issued in 2005, informing dealers to install a snap-on key cover on the cars of customers who complained about the issue. According to the Cobalt's program engineering manager, Gary Altman, the cover was an "improvement, it was not a fix to the issue."
The case where the depositions were made was from 2010, and involved Brooke Melton, a 29-year-old pediatric nurse in Georgia who was killed on her birthday. At the time, police claimed she was going too fast on a wet, rural road, although it later came out through the black box that her car's ignition had come out of the "run" position at least three seconds before the accident (the max amount of time a black box records before a wreck), disabling her airbags, power steering and anti-lock brakes. According to USA Today, police said Melton was "traveling too fast for the roadway conditions," although it's impossible to know if she'd have been in the wreck, which injured the occupants of another vehicle, had her 2005 Chevy not shut off. GM settled the Melton family's case, although the details remain confidential.
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
