Description : Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to digitally present to you this 1983 Pontiac Grand Prix LJ.
The Grand Prix is observably one of the most identifiable cars, but this specific car is one of a kind. This is the top of the line Grand Prix model for that 1983 with console shifter, PS, PB, PW, cruise control, AM/FM stereo radio, rear defrost, Pontiac Rally wheels and an aftermarket manual sun roof. This car was painstakingly restored and upgraded following a "Car Craft" magazine article titled "325HP 305 Chevy with bolt on Mods" where they took a 305 Chevy motor with 80K miles out of a 1983 Camaro and started testing all kinds of bolt on aftermarket products to improve performance. Free flowing exhaust, Edelbrock Performer 4bbl carb and intake, and Crane Cam from Jegs High Performance company including all the necessary extra components.. This classy black finish is tastefully paired with a tan cloth interior. Bolting all of that to the 305CI V8 is sure to bring you more power and a better driving experience than it had factory. Comfort features on this vehicle include: Ice Cold Air Conditioning, A professionally restored and fully functional AM/FM radio, Manual Sunroof, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Power Locks, Power Seats, Power Steering, Power Windows, and Seatbelts for safety! This is a car you'd feel bad for not driving.
