Hey guys, my name is Doug, I live in Florida and I just recently bought a '99 Pontiac Grand Prix V6 3.1L. I only gave $750 for it. As you can imagine anything that you pay that low needs allot of tlc. I haven't yet had a good look at it, I just drove it home last night. From what I could tell over all it's a good solid car and no rust. It drove home good, the engine and transmission have just over 200K miles but it sounds good and smooth. The low coolant light came on. I pulled over and couldn't see or smell any leaking coolant and the reservoir was still full so carefully watching the temp gauge I continued on home. The few things I could tell right away that need attention is I need to replace all the window regulators and the window tint needs redoing. The a/c and heat blower motor wont turn on, that could just be a resistor or the motor itself. I want to replace both the front and rear light housings. The rear is weathered and cracked up and the front is yellowed and the front right turning lens is missing. Other then that it was what you'd expect a used worn car to be like at that age. The interior is in decent shape, no rips or tears in the seats. The carpet is worn on the drivers side front. It could uses some cleaning. This will probably be a never ending work in progress. I found that forums come in really handy with other cars that Ive owned in the past and I thought I'd get a build thread going on it and share my progress.
