Rare 428 4-speed '69 Grand Prix SJ!

[@michaelnotigan7796]

This 4 speed 69 GP can sit alongside any SD455 Trans Am, Ram Air Judge as one of the most desirable Pontiacs ever. The 69 restyle helped ignite the personal luxury coupe craze that lasted nearly 2 decades. And it's fantastic look and styling is as relevant right now as it was when it was released in late 68. An all time great!

[@Johnnycdrums]

I'm a Ford guy, but desprately want't one while stationed on the West Coast attached to the Third Fleet. They were going for $900 and up, and not rusted, and only about nine years old. Never did buy my used, decent condition Gran Prix or Thunderbird. I had to settle for a Honda CL450. 43 hp. so they claim, heavy, off road (not at all), lead sled. I was pulled over for going 80 on I5 on my way from San Diego to Long Beach, Calif. I was really going 85 and leaking oil. CHP gave me a ticket while simultaneously annoyyeed that the State Of Maine issued paper liseince's and no motorcycle liecence was required. Maine State law was respected, I hope and pray this is still the case.

Got to test drive a lot of them on a 6 block long loop on the out skirt of the downtown business area. We only had one 4 speed 1969 GP SJ that came in twice a year. What a thrill to sit in that cockpit, look out over that mile long hood, and chirp the tires when granny shifting.

Also there was a 65 or 66 Catalina 2+2 4-speed and l know for a fact that the early GPs could be had with a stick. I just sent him this video. Beautiful car you have there. I do collect car but my only Pontiac is a 73 455SD 4-speed Firebird Formula that l bought from its original owner in 1986.

I was 14 in the summer of 69. An older friend in the group of kids was a 17 year old, whose Dad owned a beautiful 69 GP SJ, with a 438/4brl TH400, with a posi rear. We grew up summering on Great Island in Narragansett, RI. Where the main rd in was a ten year old 4 lane straight called The Escape Road. Built after the hurricane of 58, that devastated the area. Where many drivers still to this day bring their cars out to see how fast they can get on the 2.3 mile downhill for a half mile west bound. We had that GP, with 4 kids in it up to 120! His sister had a 68 Firebird with a 3.8 OHC Straight Six, 4 brl dual exhaust headers and 4 speed called a Sprint, her Dad bought her for graduation. Occasionally she let her little brother use if we washed it for her. That would easily get up to 115 mph, but felt light. The fastest I rode on that road was in my older cousins 66 GTO 400/4 brl 4 speed with posi, that pulled 128 mph at 4,300 rpm’s!

I always loved these, particularly the '71 and '72, as I prefer the more serious look of the single headlights. I like the earlier less plastic-looking grill though. And I like both this clean straight rear bumper, and the later boat-tailed rendition. Back in the late '80s or early '90s, 20/20, or one of those network primetime news shows, did a feature where they had an older couple drive an RV around the country, mainly out West IIRC, and stop in at some RV repair shops located near the highways, and see how bad they would get ripped off. The network had their own mechanic who verified the roadworthy condition of the RV, and then whether or not any repairs billed were necessary, and whether or not they were even performed. For the ending segment, the reporter went back and confronted the shops which had ripped them off. This one particular shop owner, who was maybe in his late thirties or early forties, actually fled from the reporter! But their cameras managed to catch the guy's '69 or '70 Grand Prix, and luckily their microphones picked up the sound as he drove off, and I was able to hear that it had a manual transmission! Even as a younger guy, I knew that had to be rare. I forget what color it was though...

I had a Gym teacher in High School who had one of these. I’m not sure about what engine it had but it definitely had a four speed.

Three speed was standard. Like to see one of those.

Man, what a car the best PGP SJ I've seen I wish that I was the owner!

[@Irod69]

Beautiful car 😍👍

[@mikemonteforte9726]

That's a badass car my friend had one

My friend owned SJ 50 years ago when I was in high school. The owners manual have a picture of a four speed stick shift.

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Unusual, but crazier that the 3-speed manual was still standard.

I had a 69. My wedding party was 3-69 Grand Prix’s. I finally had to get rid of it because the town I live in shrunk all the parking spots, to fit all the tiny cars. Even if I parked at the end of the lot where nobody was. I’d come back, of course someone would park close to my drivers door! In 1969, the big 3 all their big cars could be had with 4-speeds.

A beautiful car, probably special ordered by a dad who still wanted to have muscle.
