1970 Pontiac Grand Prix Junkyard Find Unfortunately Was A Disappointment

[@mikee2923]

The 400 is worth saving. Even though a 2bbl it’s a pre 1975 block which is a solid foundation for a Pontiac V8 rebuild. Transmission if still there is a BOP turbo 400 and definitely worth saving. Rear guessing is an open 8.2” 10 bolt.

Whoa Nelley, 1970 and gotta go. Rough, rough, rough, rough, but still has some good pieces to donate to another project. This is considered a "G" body in this year, along with the same year Monte Carlo. The Cadillac Seville that's next to the GP would be another interesting video as well. We got the VIN, we win: 2 for Pontiac, 76 for Grand Prix, 57 for two door hardtop coupe, 0 for 1970 model year, A for Atlanta, GA assembly and the rest is the production sequence. The Atlanta, GA assembly plant in this case was located in Lakewood Heights, GA and closed in 1990. They could have also been assembled at the Pontiac, MI plant like the other ones shown. That plant closed in 1988. We got the tag, we can brag: ST70 for 1970 model year, 27657 for Pontiac (2) Grand Prix (76) two door hardtop coupe (57), A for Atlanta, GA assembly, 295 for leather Saddle bucket seat interior trim, 47 for Verdoro Green lower exterior paint, H for Dark Gold vinyl top and 10C for the third week of October 1969 production. This car has a few options: air conditioning, the under hood light, the leather interior, among other options. Yes, Bendix brake company (who was in the aftermarket and still is) likely rebuilt that master cylinder at one time. Rebuilt master cylinders were commonplace when this car was on the road. Yes, approximately 265 gross HP on the 400 CID V8 with two barrel in 1970. It had 8.8:1 compression and could run on regular fuel. Whoa Nelley, GP and it's for me. 1970 it's a no go. Poncho needs a new honcho. The falling of a tree made it over for thee. That's it, time to quit. Painted green and used to be mean. Vinyl top took a big flop. Made in GA and soon to go away. Going to be flat and that's that. Paint code 47 is going to Heaven. Soon to be flat and leave the chat. Please don't get squished because just about everyone on this channel, Benny, many here, and yes for sure the Google Man are all going to be very, very, very, very pissed.

Thank you for everything you do

@@robertvance1873 Sure thing. When everyone contributes, everyone learns. Then everyone wins.

[@garymckee63]

I consider the 69-77 Grand Prix the real ones and the 78-87 second best, and the two l had 88 and a 95 fake ones 🫠

[@robertvance1873]

@garymckee63 the early 2000's GPS that had all the bells and whistles plus a V8 I think they were called GXP's were Beautiful but the transmissions couldn't handle the power of the 5.3

[@robertvance1873]

@garymckee63 my brother had a 69 GP and it was the first car I ever went to 140 mph in we were going to go all the way but ran out of Real estate Quickly 😂

[@helmutwimmer4248]

Thanks for posting these Grand Prix videos, always neat to see.

[@rogergoodman8665]

1969 and 70 Grand Prix's have always been one of my favorite cars. The dash design is excellent.

[@gmpurist6745]

GET THOSE SEATS OUTTA THERE!!!...side button seats in a 70 can only mean factory passenger side reclining seat!...ultra ultra rare...should be a chrome lever on the lower cushion area down low....clear the crap out of there....youll see it.....get them!!!!

[@oliverpetroski4205]

That's a huge mess...😲 Who knows they may be some good parts from it or inside that mess.

[@OldcarGMguy69]

I have owned a 70 tempest 2 door post for 34 years. It's the same green code 47. Sad to see this one but thanks for posting. You are bringing content for us.

[@googleusergp]

Yup, code 47 aka Verdoro Green.

[@garydonnelly8337]

Dad bought a 71 Gran Prix, similar but started to change, had 400 4 barrel.

[@SnickersG-fu2pw]

[@debbiebermudez5890]

[@edmccandlish520]

Poor old Poncho.😢

[@googleusergp]

Poncho needs a new honcho.

[@robertlyman9789]

They must have expected night break downs to install moveable light!😂

[@robertvance1873]

Such a DAMN Shame, Great Car's 😢

[@mjg263]

Was a sweet ride in its day, love the color. Damn shame to see it left to rot out in the woods somewhere!

[@AaronGranda-g5r]

Benny what platform is this? Does it share g platform with the first year monte?

[@marksklizovic5816]

Benny If it was me I’d take the entire drive line and that passenger side headlight housing and maybe even the rad support and inner fenders somebody would definitely have a need for those and that is about it

[@XCELERATIONRULES]

Another one goes to the crusher and the good ones become much more rare.

[@randywineinger779]

Looks like storm damage finished the old gal off, what a shame.

[@JamesWoodring-mu2iz]

those things were heavy ! but in the early 80s an owner of a local speed shop had a sj with a 455 with laughing gas!! dude would kick a s with that thing!

[@OsbornTramain]

So many grand prix's lately

[@OldCanadianguy953]

What a shame. I hope someone with really excellent skills can save this and give it new life.

[@john-d6l]
