In my opinion, the Black 62' Grand Prix with its lack of body chrome was/is one of the best looking cars ever made.

I would love to have a '62 Grand Prix like that!

Beautiful! We had a 62 Grand Prix for a number of years with 389 (.030 over), Tri-power, 8 lugs, and a 4 speed with factory tach. It had the power windows too! It was like sitting on a couch that just happened to moving down the highway. A Tri-power couch that sat 6 adults comfortably! It started my love of all things Pontiac. Thanks for a great video of one of my all time favorite cars. Semper Fi!

In 1962, Chevy's had the Powerglide. Pontiac, Oldsmobile, and Cadillac had the four-speed Hydra-Matic, and Buick had the Dynaflow. The three-speed GM Hydra-Matics weren't mandated until 1965. Also, Chevy had the "Turbo-Glide" automatic available in 1957, which was a continuously variable torque converter transmission with a planetary gearbox that allowed switchable performance modes. It proved to be troublesome. By '65, Hydra-Matics, of varying types, became the only transmissions for GM products, on the heels of the government mandate that all automatic transmissions on American roads follow the new standard "P-R-N-D-L" configuration on shift patterns.

My '63 Pontiac book says that the "Slim Jim" was a 3 speed auto except for the Bonneville. The Bonneville came with the 4 speed auto. I have an original '63 Grand Prix, 389 4 barrel with an auto, A/C and eight lug wheels.

@Quidamkid 4 жыл бұрын

The "Slim Jim" was a confusing bit of machinery. It was a 4 speed, but the 1st and 2nd gear were internally controlled with a shift point of 8 mph. Although the shift pattern showed Drive, 2nd, 1st and Reverse, the car was actually in 3rd when set in 2nd. To look the transmission up search for the Roto-Hydramatic 375 Model 10.

@starchief59 -- hello, yup, vacuum gauge was stock on all autos and mounted on center console but a 'sweep' tach like the vac gauge was an available option on tri-power 389 and 421's. it was mounted on upper left corner of dash.

@caribman10 Жыл бұрын

The tach wasn't an option; it replaced the vacuum gauge on automatics. The option was that on automatics you could get the tach on the dash. I never saw one, though.

Sorry; I had a '62 Bonnie HT with base 303hp and the latest and greatest 4-sp Hydramatic (no overdrive gear); I drove round trip from Ca to Iowa and back in 1963- that car got 19mpg. This was back in the day when engines were designed by ENGINEERS and not politicians and quality 100 octane fuel didn't hurt any either.
