Default Amazing '70 #s 455HO/4-sp Grand Prix

The only thing more impressive than the drivetrain is the color combo - first time I've seen red/white/saddle on a GP. Kinda wish the interior had been ordered in the Pearl/Parchment color, but overall, it's pretty sharp.

Bidding is really strong, currently at $35,700 with the reserve not yet met.

----Charley,,,Was this the 70 that you owned way back? I would think it has to be as the combination is rare. Couldn't help but notice the lack of power windows. I saw the car when a crazy guy from the Chicago area owned it, and tried to buy it but money was too strong for me back then. Beautiful GP!!!......Bill S

Bill... yes, this is our old car that Charley & I sold back & forth to each other a couple of times. Its changed hands probably 7 or 8 times since then. Car still looks good for being done in the early 90's. Photo from the 1993 POCI Convention in Irvine, CA when Charley allowed me to drive the car down and show it.

These cars are gorgeous imo, really rare combo of high luxury and musclecar (if you wanted it that way) No wonder they seem to be very hot lately

----Thanks, Grant! I knew you were involved with this car as well as Charley. Don't know why I didn't type your name as well. It really does look excellent for an older resto!......Bill S

That car is sweet!

Is the Formula wheel stock? I didn't know Formulas wheels were available on grand Prixs. Of course, I didn't know you could get a 455HO 4 spd Grand Prix either.

----Grant would know better, but I think they were available only in 70 and only part of the year. Would love to have one on my 69 SJ but at least I have a nice deluxe wheel.....Bill S
