vehicle on a website other than our main website, it's possible

are excited to have this sleek Gentleman's Musclecar in our
inventory. This is a beautiful example of a Grand Prix that offers
a 389 under the hood, 8 lug wheels, bucket seats, and factory A/C.
In '64 the Pontiac Grand Prix was more of an everyday, smooth,
quiet car to get around in. The option of having the car built with
a 389ci V8 under the hood gave the Grand Prix another personality.
The body and trim on this car show extremely well, and thanks to
its origin in California, the car is solid. One item to note is
that the rear bumper is not correct due to reverse lights being
mounted on it. Although not correct, the bumper is in great
condition. This Grand Prix is a rare Twin Trim Tag car. One trim
tag looks like a normal trim tag other than Special being noted as
the color. The second one denotes the color on the car as Goldwood
Yellow. Goldwood Yellow was actually a color offered on the '64
Impala SS, while Pontiac offered no Yellow hues until the '65 model
year with Mayfair Maize. The twin trim tag was something that
surprised the PHS group when drawing up the literature for this
car. This car's fit and finish is very nice with chrome and trim in
great condition and body panels that line up just as they should.
Inside the car is a tidy interior finished in the factory correct
black with black bucket seats. The interior has a slew of great
features such as; console, retractable seat belts, clock, power
windows, vacuum manifold gauge on center the console, and power
steering. Under the hood is a 389ci V8 with a 4bbl carb perched
atop the intake manifold. A Hydramatic 2 speed automatic
transmission handles gear selection. Power brakes mated to the 8
lug wheels give more stopping confidence. This awesome vintage
Pontiac may look docile as it floats down the boulevard, but a 300
horsepower 389 under the hood, and sleek styling that did not give
away its power, make this Grand Prix a Gentleman's Muscle car. This
big car is quick and a pleasure to drive. Be sure to check out all
