I don't know what happened with that red one, but,,,
Here is a black '79 Grand Am on eBay which is going with
NO RESERVE. It's only got one day left but I just found it.
Looks to be in decent shape, especially if the mileage is correct.

From the description, I don't think the seller knows a whole lot about these cars. Says it's got a 4.6 Litre engine??? I would guess that's supposed to be 4.9, but someone asked him about that, and he repeated himself. Maybe he doesn't know squat about cars in general. That being the case, a car guy could really take advantage of this deal.
Not sure why someone would open up with a $2500 bid on a no reserve auction though.
Could be a shill bidder, unless somebody close by has a Grand Am jones.
