This is a 72 Grand Prix Model J, has a remanufactured 400 motor and transmission. Runs good, interior is in great shape. Exterior has some bubbling in the paint-mainly the front fenders and bottom side skirts, but most of the paint is in good shape (it's original). Title has non-actual mileage. I believe the motor and transmission have around 11,000 miles, the car has a little over 137,000 (odo reads 37103-which may change a little as it's being driven some). Couple small issues-Car starts fine every time when it's cool. After it's been warmed up for more than five minutes, it needs to cool off. After driven 10 miles or so it needs about an hour. I've been told all kinds of things it could be, but haven't looked into it as it hasn't caused me any issues. It doesn't affect the way the car runs. I've had the car about 5 years and it always starts when it's cool. The blinkers are not working. I put in a new flasher, which didn't remedy the problem. Hazards work fine, so I think the problem is just a connection at the lever end in the steering column. Car uses a little oil and a little coolant, but not much. Lights, brights, and cruise control all work fine. Accelerates and brakes fine, radio works. When the motor was changed, the air conditioning system was changed also. Supposedly there is a valve under the hood to turn it on, but I never have. As far as I know, the compressor is ok-I haven't noticed any noise. There is one picture here where a few people have asked why the car is "smoking." It's actually not smoking, I forgot to get a full length pic of the car, so this is from a different day. It was cold out and I had just started it. Car doesn't smoke/overheat. Also just got a new transmission crossmember and fresh oil change. I have the 72 plates to go with the car, and it can also be seen here (I try to get close on the paint, start the car, etc.). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo6gMBwvG24 Feel free to email me with questions jyutzy2@sbcglobal.net
