THE COMPLETE RESTRUCTURE OF THE GRAND PRIX IN 1969 WAS A RADICAL NEW PLATFORM, INTRODUCING THE LONG HOOD, SHORT TRUNK CONFIGURATION THAT WOULD BE COPIED BY MANY MANUFACTURERS AND PROVE TO BE A HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL DESIGN. DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS PRIME EXAMPLE OF A PONTIAC G BODY. The Grand Prix first appeared in the Pontiac line for the 1962 model year, and the full-size Catalina-based Grand Prix sold well through the 1960s. However, by the late sixties, it became painfully obvious to John DeLorian and Pontiac executives that the cumbersome, full size style of the Grand Prix was falling out of favor. For 1969, DeLorean, Pontiac's general manager at the time, ordered the development of an all-new Grand Prix based on a slightly stretched version of the intermediate GM A Body, which was dubbed the G-body. Development of the new intermediate-based 1969 Grand Prix began in April 1967 after a few prototype GPs were built on the full-sized Pontiac platform as originally planned. DeLorean and other Pontiac planners decided to make the switch in light of declining sales of the full-sized Grand Prix in comparison to competition from unique personal cars in both the luxury and sporty car fields including the Ford Thunderbird, Buick Riviera and Oldsmobile Toronado at the luxury end, along with the emerging pony cars such as the Ford Mustang and Pontiac's own new-for-1967 Firebird. To save product development costs, it was decided that while the newest GP would have a unique body shell of its own, the car would use the basic chassis and drive train from the A-body intermediates (Tempest, Le Mans and GTO), in much the same manner Ford created the original Mustang in 1964 using the basic chassis and drive train from the compact Ford Falcon. The gamble paid off for DeLorian. As he had speculated, the purchasing public embraced the new model, reflected in booming sales figures. The 1969 Grand Prix also created a new market segment—the intermediate personal luxury car. Due to the success of the 1969 Grand Prix, other GM divisions followed suit and introduced similar cars for 1970. The Chevrolet Monte Carlo used the same basic G-body as the GP but with a two-inch shorter wheelbase (116 vs. the GP's 118) and a long hood, though still shorter than the Grand Prix's, but still considered an upscale vehicle for GM's lowest-priced division This successful second generation GP continued until 1972. The third generation model fell victim to the fuel shortages, EPA, federally mandated 5 MPH crash resistant bumpers, and other restrictions that completely removed the performance car aspect of the vehicle. The second generation Grand Prix remains in automotive history books as the only example featuring luxury, style, and performance.
