my new toy!

82 pontiac grand prix.has a blown up v6,soon to be replaced with a 455.been looking for one since i was 21.

Im in fucking love!! Goin to smoke a bowl and be happy.more pics tomorrow.

 

Pretty car! Good for you and congratulations!:2thumbsup:

 

you didnt pay more then $600 did you

 

Curious to how much the car cost and how much your gonna spend on dropping the new motor in. But i'm guessing it's not going to be that much cause your a mechanic right if i remember correctly and probably gonna do it yourself.

 

Pretty sweet, congratulations.

 

Has NO rot.just very light surface surface rust in a couple very small spots.payed 600.00 for it.woulda payed 1500 if i had too for my dream car.

Yes im a mechanic and improving amateur bodyman.its gonna end up being painted some type of blue.has beautiful blue interior.bucket seats,floor shift with console.did i say ZERO rot?underneath it looks brand new.one owner car.


Got the 455 on loan from my buddy but he will end up giving it to me or selling it to me cheap.i have a 400 that i need to have rebuilt if i need it.

It actually runs and drives.motor knocks.no rattles,no squeeks.handles and ride mint.

 

Wow zero rot. Did you get it from the southwest?

 

Been garaged all its life in cape cod massachusetts of all places.it had the rusty jones treatment when new.it saved this car.

 

Is that rear wheel drive? I'd hope so if your dropping allot of power in it. But the new Gran Prix was fwd I think.

 

Its rwd.

 

600 was a good buy, exactly what I predicted, can't find shit like that in michigan, SALty rust here

 

Usualy theyre rotted to shit here from the road salt in the winter and couple that with it being down cape cod surrounded by saltwater,the car should be rotted to death.

 

Shes sexy!!!!

 

If I was near Boston I would say I would race you in my M3. Not too much done to it just some bolt ons but it handles well which is much more important to me.

 

Wouldnt waste my time.beat many of them things at the drag strip with my diesel pickup.

 

dude that fuckin badass! im jealous, u dick! haha. straight up stoner-mobile

 

Nice ride, man! I can't believe how clean it is. I had a 1979 Grand Prix back in the mid 90's. It wasn't that nice. It was ok though. I got it for $300 and never put a dime into it in repairs. I liked how it seemed to float down the road.

 

Yup my company is designing ford focus' with hydrachargers instead of turbos. m3 is left in the dust easily. Ford focus is running at 350HP right now...

 

Drag strip is not racing. Can your truck turn or stop? I would win where it matters. European cars are built for a race circuit.

I ran a 13.5 at altitude when I did go to the drag strip though. Quick enough for me but yes plenty of trucks can do it quicker.
