Man-o-man thats a cream puff! You won't get any reasonable offers from me, but I had a 75 Model J that I sure did like. Drive it down here for some new miles and we can put my tires on her to see what she will do! But seriously... this is a primo survivor judging by the thumbnail pics. A nicely loaded one in unfortunate disco two tone color. There are a couple things a performance-minded potential buyer should know: The frame and xmember changed for catalyst in '75. So adding dual exhaust is tougher, an early "double hump" trans xmember won't swap. Even if you find a limited slip axle under it, the final drive ratio will suck. It was either that or suck down too much gas. Lastly, the 400 was already on the way out when your car was made, and the block is likely a weaker version than the 73-4s. Main webs and lifter valley are the areas compromised, cast with less material. I have a cracked one in the garage, want it? Guys usually stop at about 350-400 HP with late 400 builds due to this. That being said... I REALLY liked mine. I say go ahead and put some miles on it and fix what breaks. Thats a heck of a car!
I have a 2011 Zr1 vette as my toy and i bought this car to sell it.It is absolutely mint all original.If i kept it i d add dual exhaust,a 160 degree thermostat ,3.42 gears ,recurve the distributor,and an aluminum intake.Those light mods would wake it up a little but i d rather find a good home for it .I am sure someone here will be interested by this immaculate grand prix LJ.I am located in Montreal Canada.As for the color it is a plus it is the golden anniversary color scheme.
