73 Grand Prix Pics
Here's a picture of my grandmother's 73 Grand Prix. My father tells me that she bought it off the showroom floor on Long Island in 1973. Shortly after she moved to Albuquerque, NM. My father drove the GP out to New Mexico. He said it was a great car then. My older brother bought it from my grandmother in 1987. It was his first car. Since it was out west all those years, the body was near mint. I learned to drive on it when I was getting my driver's license. What a great car. My grandmother passed away on 12/31/04, and I always think of this car when I think of her. My brother sold it in 1988 or 1989. It was junked shortly thereafter with a blown transmission. This was in northern NJ. Anybody seen it since then? Wishful thinking I suppose. I had a chance to buy it back at that time, but I was 17 years old and had just bought my first GTO, a 70 hardtop. Car was Admiralty Blue with white interior and white vinyl top.
