1975 Pontiac Grand Prix Model J Hardtop
For consignment, a 1975 Pontiac Grand Prix Model J hardtop with a title verified 103,728 actual miles. This example has its numbers matching drivetrain. The malaise period had a few standout models. This is one of them.

Exterior
Honduras Maroon paint coats this car and a repaint was done in two stage application. To extenuate the raised portion of the pointed hood, a white pinstripe borders the proud section, then continues down the body of the car and around the raised section of the trunk. A white vinyl Landau style roof includes the fixed quarter windows and up front, the split grille surrounds the nose with the Pontiac emblem dead center, while single headlights make a final appearance on the Grand Prix in '75. The tail lights were redesigned for '75 and consist of five adjacent strips of light, flanking the fancy GP emblem over the keyhole and this is repeated on the hood ornament. 15-inch Pontiac Rally II wheels look just right and other than a small scratch by wheel opening trim, the paint and metal are in fantastic condition.
Interior
It's 1975 and what goes best with a maroon and white exterior? That's right, white with a bit of woodgrain thrown in for contrast. That's just what greets you when you open the big doors, a clean, angular look flowing to a canted brushed aluminum feature that houses the electric window control, and both doors have aspects of use. The tall bucket seats are in nice shape with some expected discoloration and a tear in the driver's seat lower. In back, conditions are very nice and completely original. A triple spoke steering wheel frames the gauge cluster completely faced in nicely preserved woodgrain applique. The gauges are clean and crisp, and the cigarette lighter is marked with a graphic of a Zippo style lighter, that's cool! The dashboard and plastic surround are in outstanding condition and a more modern AM/FM/CD player looks right at home. The molded plastic center console houses the shifter and the base model insignia "Model J" and we have some peeling of the woodgrain on the storage bin. Black carpet on the floor, a slightly discolored but intact white headliner above, and a clean trunk complete our tour of the inside.
Drivetrain
The numbers matching 400ci engine hasn't left the bay in 50 years and looks super clean under the hood. Bravo to the caretaker of this car, it's an absolute pleasure to see a mid 70's daily driver with a clean engine bay! This power plant was rated at 185 horsepower and is connected to a matching numbers TH400 3-speed automatic transmission connected to a driveshaft that spins the gears in a 10 bolt rear. A 4-barrel carburetor regulates the fuel delivery.
Undercarriage
The usual surface rust, road soot, and corrosion on those big Detroit steel pieces underneath but otherwise unremarkable. The dual exhaust is especially clean and runs through FlowMaster mufflers before exiting via chrome tips split out back. There is no catalytic converter on the system. Power brakes are configured as front disc and rear drum and coil springs are employed for suspension with a 4 link accompanying in back.
Drive-Ability
Sure, it's 1975 level horsepower, but that doesn't mean it is particularly slow. The 400 sounds great and moves this car adequately, while the 75 series tires help create a smooth and comfortable ride from a pleasant, now classic, cabin. We note the clock is not working but all other functions available operate as intended. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
If a Bonneville and a Trans Am had a baby, it would be a Grand Prix. It was a combination that worked, more than 86,000 Grand Prix's were produced in 1975 and nearly 65,000 of them were the Model J. This is a fantastic example with great paint, a numbers matching drivetrain, and show stopping capabilities. Get used to the phrase, "I remember these!"
