My uncle bought a 1969 Grand Prix SJ 428 4-spd new, Mayfair Maize w/black interior, last seen in Pontiac Michigan in 1988. I would love to find that car and buy it.

Did it have a black vinyl top? Was it bought new in Kansas by chance?

Yes, on the black vinyl top, replied to your PM.

Did some sorting out under the hood. New hood insulation, washer hoses and clips, correct molded hoses with dated tower clamps, vacuum lines, pump to carb fuel line, valve cover bolts, spark plug wire retainers, pos batt cable retainer & strap, spark plugs, 5-blade flex fan, dated distributor and a much nicer original fan shroud. Also rebuilt and rejetted the carb. As always, still more to do..... Grant

Factory Dash Tach

Also installed an original GP dash tachometer. For those that may not know, these tachs are specific to GP, not the same as GTO. They have blue/green filtered lenses built-in to the tach housing and light up a different color than GTO's.

Got the upper console plate stripped & repainted today. Came out a little too shiny, but it looks much better than it did.

----Just a question, Grant. Where did they mount the coil on a 71? Don't see it....Bill S
