    Hi there, my name is dean and im from melbourne australia. Ive recently become the proud owner of a 1965 Pontiac Grand Prix imported from Washington. Ive nicknamed her " old rusty" cos she's in pretty rough shape and was earmarked to be parted out when I stepped in to save her from an undignified end. From what I can tell it is a 389 Th400 car but theres a few things im not sure about so would love to hear from any other 65 GP owners who may be able to help. Thanks. Dean

    Hi all, will post some pics shortly, especially of the hole in the rear floor that you can put 2 feet in and touch the ground! Damn leaky back window. Will be happier when I hear that 389 fire back into life and get some brakes happening!
