'69 Grand Prix, Factory 428HO / 4-sp, The Ultimate?
 

One family owned and complete with the original POP. Can't remember the last time I saw a GP ordered with manual steering - pretty incredible muscle car here!

Almost comical how much room there is underhood without A/C and P/S.

Grant ...... look !

What you think ?

I love those Long Branch exhaust manifolds.

Grant - Would the Axle-sp-ord option be 3.90 gears? Really like this car!

Oops - just saw the 3.23 in the ad, my bad.

A rare platform on which to build a go fast only set up. Surprised it has a a semi dead gear in it

My guess is this was a high-speed highway cruiser (no PS and 3.23) that had the speedo pegged often. At least that is what I would like to think :)

Way cool and like everyone else, wish it was black/black also wonder what it was like pre resto?:hmmm:
Note Rear is a 10-bolt also dog caps look awesome but expect factory hubcaps w/ deal are full disc?
:beers:

I did see it on eBay last night. It's a Bad-Ass GP!!

It belongs to a friend of mine, his Dad ordered it new. If I remember correctly, the car spent one year in IL before moving the family to AZ.

A 3.55 HD rear would have been standard with the HO 4-speed. The 3.90 would require the M21 close ratio trans, only 22 of those cars were built.

That's exactly what my friend Bob said, his Dad wanted the taller gear for highway driving.

Car was very solid being in AZ all but most of the first year. They moved to AZ in Oct of 1969. Of course the interior was baked. Just Dashes is the only place that can remold these interior pieces and it was expensive!!
