This was my first GTP I bought back in January of 08.

Anyway, details about the car:

1997 Black Grand Prix GTP, selling as-is, 1500 OBO.
222,000 KM and still being driven for now. Likely being taken off the road in 2 weeks or so.
HUD, leather interior. 30/20 Tinted windows.
Racetronix FP rewire,
GMPP trailing arms
Summit Mufflers and dual/dual tips. Also have stock mufflers/tips I will include.
PCM was in-car tuned by Overkill.

Most everything has been converted over to 99+ parts. Motor is from an 02 GTP with roughly the same KM as the rest of the car.

Regular oil changes every 5-6,000 KM. The car passed e-test just under 2 years ago EASY! I have the sheet, I will upload it tomorrow.

Winter 2011.

Seafoamed the motor, then replaced fuel filter, spark plugs and wires.
heater hose
ECT
Battery (3 yr warranty, have card still)
Both control arms including new front and rear bushings
both balljoints
sway bar endlinks
outer tie rod (passenger side)
wheel hub/bearing (driver side)
4 new struts and mounts
4 new rotors and pads
blower motor resister
serp belt and s/c belt
2 new tires
alignment

Winter 2012:

Lower intake gaskets and coolant elbows (GM aluminum)
s/c gasket
lower intake coolant o-rings
front and rear valve cover gaskets
injector o-rings
195 t-stat and gasket
new Dexcool
Replaced fuel pump.

Just changed the oil today with Castrol 10w30 and Fram filter. Going to replace with stock air box and air filter before selling unless someone wants the HAI on it now.

Engine runs great and is reliable, starts easy and first turn, never misses a beat. Transmission shifts smoothly, no clunking or slipping and no signs of weakness or failing etc.

Rockers are rusted, rusted below fuel door and paint is chipped/flaking in wheel wells. Fuel gauge doesn't work as pump is not for a 97, I use the DIC to know how much is in the tank. E-brake needs to be adjusted. I have 1 new shoe I can include with sale.

The only thing it would need for safety is rockers and the e-brake adjusted or replaced. E-test shouldn't be an issue either.

I will take current pics of it tomorrow as well as the bad spots.
