Default How desirable is a 1977 Pontiac Grand Prix SJ

There is one for sale down the road with less than 45000 miles, Owner says he doesnt know what to sell it for. It runs and is drivable, super clean with no noticable cancer. Black w/red interior and buckets. Havent seen under the hood yet. oh ya, t-tops.

I had a white/red interior/white vinyl top 77. Mine had a 301.

T Tops should raise the value a bit.

You might want to post your thread in the 69-77 GP forum.

Looks sweet to me. Nice color scheme too. If it is clean as it looks-go for it. Hard to find nice 73-77 G-bodies.

Offer 6K$ and see what he says. I have seen ones not nearly as nice up for sale for a lot more. The 77GP was my first car. Still have it too.

NADA Classic Car guide has at a low of $6250 and a high of $13,000 depending on mileage and what engine it has. If it has a 400, plan on it going high.

last of the big ones.....Very sharp car! Go in low but don't lowball him! If he doesn't have a price I'd start at $4000. Take a plate, driver & cash.

I have the keys and drive it every morning and at night, I have agreed to keep it overnights at my house and park it various places near by to see if it will sell, if not, maybe he will GIVE it to me for cheap! He has several other cars, mostly jags and a Buick riviera I think.
