the SJ had the 428 and <font color="red"> Leather </font> interior. and yes, it would melt the tire to the rim with less than a quarter pedal

Re: 1969 Grand Prix Model "J" 428 4 speed
 

-----An SJ had to have one of two 428s (390 or 370). I just bought a 29000 orig mile 370hp SJ last Friday. Standard J models could have 428s as well but had 400s as standard issue. Leather could have been ordered on any 1969 or 1970 Grand Prix, and was not by any means standard on SJs. I think you might tend to see a few more leather interiors in SJs as most SJs were more heavily optioned than the Js. These are great cars. I love them when the options are trowled on!!!!.........Bill S

Don,,,

------We have to start an SJ Grand Prix club. Yours is absolutely beautiful!!! Im not sure what to do with this one as it is so original. Just one laquer repaint about 15 years ago and new exhaust and not much else. Saddle leather seats are near mint and original carpet is mint as well. Were the wheels on yours when you bought it??? I actually thought about a set of real Hurst wheels for a second until I remembered what they go for these days. An absolute prince of a guy sold it to me and on the wall of his garage was an original add with a GP SJ with redlines. Gotta do it!!!
------ I will try to get some pics for you this week, Bruce. I think you will dig it.........Bill S

Thanks Bill, I cant wait to see pics of your car as well.
Ive always loved grand prixs and since judges are out of reach now for most of us this is the next best thing in my book. The wheels were on it already when i bought it. I had an extra set of hurst wheels to go on it when i got home but when i pulled up to his house i could not believe what i was seeing. They are like hurst wheels on steroids!!! 16x8's with a custom offset with 255/50's all the way around! Handles like a bastard!! Forgot to mention,It has edelbrock aluminum heads on it with a ram iv cam and factory exhaust manifolds!! Now i have a car that can smoke the tires down the street with the air condition on. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif
