This is my 2001 Grand Prix GT. I bought it for my wife in 2003, then we sold it to a neighbor in 2010. Just recently the neighbor decided to get a newer vehicle, as the Grand Prix needed some work to get past California's emissions test, and she offered it back to me. I accepted, and started this car's road to recovery. While new to this forum, I'm a long-time member and gearhead over at pontiacbonnevilleclub.com, where I owned a 1997 Bonneville SE from 1999 until my wife totaled it one year ago, so I've had more than a little experience with the L36 engine. My wife and I have collectively owned five Pontiacs in total.
Here's the Grand Prix GT with my wife showing it off the day we got it back in 2003:
Here it is in 2005 after I got the rear windows tinted:
and here it is just before I got it back, in August 2016. (I changed out the tails for aftermarkets back around 2009 after the originals delaminated):
and right after I got it home:
after its first good exterior wash:
Since then, there is an enormous list of work I've done and had done to the car to get it up to where it is now. I just wanted to get a formal "Hello" out there. I already know some of you from my years at the Bonneville club.
