1967 Pontiac Grand Prix abandoned since 1986
Bought this car July 9th 2024.
Story goes, car had been sitting and forgotten in a barn somewhere in Nebraska since 1986 due to front brake issue.
Pontiac is now living a better life in the rocky mountains of Colorado.
Here is a video to showcase the "before" condition... stay tuned for the Street Rod restomod highlights.

Strip it down and bring it back
@@Backwoods_870 that's what I'm in the process of as we speak. Car fires right up and sounds great, drives but front driver break needs work. I already peeled the vinyl top and removed the adhesive.. The front and back glass is out repairing a couple small rust holes and redoing the dash. Then goes on a new top and glass. Body workWill be this coming spring..
Hey boss where is the fuel pressure regulator on this?
A price tool wedge between where the carpet meets the center console would remove the carpet
barely 1000 kms on the new fake plugs and already giving me misfires
well i paid the money and was still ripped off lol
Judging by the tools used, I see you treated it like a drywall repair…. Just add a little of compound and you’ll be set!😅😅😅
I want to feed my generator fuel from the vans fuel tank , I don't see a auxiliary fuel outlet , do you know what GMC/Chevrolet uses for a xtra pickup tube fuel outlet? Thanks
Wow. I bought all 4 of my Iridium plugs for my Kia Forte GT at O'Reilly's for $64. Why are these so expensive? I buy my stuff from a repatable store just in case.
O'reilly!! Surprise!! I got scammed there once!!
What kind of fuel tank is it 55 gallon?
What does it say on each box and plug? "Made in japan"? or something else?
thank you brother man,
Is there like website that I could buy this oem parts ? I always see videos of people purchasing these authentic oem parts and i really do not trust eBay or Amazon to purchase parts .
I bought plugs and coils for our Sienna and they were all fake. Plugs were like yours. No nub on the end. The main giveaway was the boxes had small Made In China stickers on the back. Luckily the fake parts didn't do any damage.
So i suppose the only genuine ones r from the dealer or some around town auto shops, all others in the internat r fake from china basement shops?
Whaaaat?? I only paid 11.99 each on NGK's for my Stangs'. I'd bought them for years! #autozone
Are they Iridium spark plugs?
I get genuine iridium plugs from autodoc for a similar price
Or just buy genuine aftermarket denso or ngk. Like IKBH20TT OR FK20HBR11
Kanneh cibai people who sells counterfeit spare parts.
Very blurry
I would like a tutorial in which the buying step of a the fake is prevented. Like which sites are legit for selling good affordable parts.
Authorization stores. Simple. Best bet go to local dealerships
Did u ever find the fuel filter?
Thank for posting this! It'll be helpful for replacing the brake line that goes behind it.
How hard was it to remove the brake line the new mechanic
@@steveg2509 Overall the job wasn't too bad. I dropped the fuel tank strictly so I could get access to the steel brake line that was behind it. Some people would probably just push a new brake line back through there (if they could fish it through) but I wanted to make sure it was in all the plastic brackets and wasn't going to rub a hole anywhere. I used NiCopp brake line which made bending it easy. The biggest hiccup I had was with the brake line fittings. If you can reuse your old fittings then it's not a problem at all. But if they're rusted/frozen/rounded off, then you'll need to get new fittings. The problem was that, at least on mine (2011 Express 4500 Cutaway), it was using a weird M12x1.0 1/4" double flare. Most metric brake fittings use bubble flares rather than double flares. At the time I could only find them sold from BrakeQuip Part Number BQ4513. Order a couple extra so when you drop one and can't find it you have extras. Ask me how I know. Also, not sure if you need to replace this line, but the line that runs from the ABS module to the front right wheel, I had to split into two sections and use a fitting along the front most cross member to join the two sections. OE is a single line but I suspect that was installed long before there was a body or maybe even an engine was on the frame. Good luck and feel free to reach out if you have any more questions!

how is the reliability?
If you don’t want to snap the line in half oriellys auto parts sells a set of fuel line removers for like $15 for all the sizes it works similar to a shark bite for water lines. But thanks for the video it helped out a bunch.
Check out my Q45 on my channel
What's the complete exhaust setup, pipe size etc? Sounds nice and throaty, not the obnoxious cackle that most people go for
By the way, I recently saw this for sale on an old Ford truck page on FB.

How is the gas mileage?
HOW MANY GALLONS THE TANK HOLD
Bro, if I'm not mistaken the whole tear window thing started in 1978. 1977 had the guests with the flat rear window... Might wanna kook into that..
This helps, thanks brah, I’m still trying to find out where the hell my fuel filter is, mine is a 2004 3500 gmc savannah
Very helpful
GREAT MUSIC. Thanks for the video. I have a g3500 1988, but it is similar.
