This big, beautiful 1974 Pontiac Grand Ville convertible is one of the best ways to be distinctive, yet unmistakably American - all in an affordable package. With an amazingly preserved style, loaded A/C interior, and numbers-matching big 455 V8, this is an ideal way to own the road.
This big convertible has big 1970s style. Large chrome bumpers, elegant fender skirts, sporty Rally II wheels, and a unique front end that had a wide face with a tall grille - it's all about the kind of .....
style that reminds you what it was like to be a big shot in the 1970s. This full package is all about preservation, and so even the Sunstorm Yellow paint shows all the right signs of being the factory application. It's certainly not perfect nearly a half-century later, but there's a level of overall respect here that's irresistible. So we like how it continues to have a bright sunshine-like style that also shows it's a survivor. And the full package is terrifically detailed, right down to the white convertible top coordinates with the full-length rub strip and whitewall tires.
For the same reason you like the white convertible top, you're going to love the factory white upholstery. The diamond-tufted pattern in the seatbacks is an instant reminder that Pontiacs were a more upscale brand that offered luxury within its sporting image. And the black on high-traffic areas like the carpeting, lower door panels, steering wheel, and dash show less dirt to remind you that they really want you to cruise with confidence. It's easy for the driver to get comfortable with a power front seat and a fold-down armrest. Plus, there's a wrap-around gauge cluster that puts all the controls within easy reach, and the instruments are amazingly well preserved. It's loaded with even more great features like a tilt steering column, cruise control, and the original AM radio with 8-Track. Plus, power windows and a power convertible top mean never having to leave the driver's seat to go from enclosed comfort to a wind-in-your-hair experience. The factory air conditioning even continues to blow nice and cold (now with R134a refrigerant) so that you can enjoy the top-down experience even in the summer. It's a well-preserved total package, right down to desirable details like the color-matched convertible boot, working courtesy lights, and a case full of 8-Track tapes!
Pontiac's legendary 455 cubic-inch V8 has such an authentic appearance in the engine bay, and so it's the ideal way to present the numbers-matching powerhouse. Topped with a four-barrel carburetor, it has the kind of power to allow this Grand Ville to live up to its effortless driver image. And the way this example fires up and runs reaffirms the feeling of a confident cruiser. This road-ready impression is backed up by the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, and front discs for an awesome easy driving classic.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual. It's even rumored (but unconfirmed) that the low odometer represents the full actual mileage! This Grand Ville drop-top is an exceptional survivor at a gone-tomorrow price. Call Today!!!
