Grand Prix background and what was new in 1967

The Grand Prix as a model

The Pontiac Grand Prix was first introduced in 1962 as Pontiac’s answer to the Ford Thunderbird, slotted as a luxury, performance, mid-size car, between the larger Bonneville and the smaller Tempest in the Pontiac lineup.

The 1967 Grand Prix in context

The 1967 Grand Prix was the sixth of the B-body based 1st Generation (1962-1968). The long, low, clean, wide look of the 1st Gen’s was a break from the bulkier, heavily chromed, larger tailfin cars of the 50’s.

67 vs 66 Front

On the 1967 Grand Prix, the vertical dual headlights were lost. The headlights were now mounted horizontally and concealed in an integrated grille that contained a horizontal chrome bar with the “GP” logo above it on the driver side.

67 vs 66 Side

On the side of the 1967 Grand Prix, the most prominent change was the “wasp-waisted” rear panels. Also, the low, chrome trim was lost and a higher, full-length molding was added.

67 vs 66 Rear

The rear of the 1967 Grand Prix was significantly different from the 1966, with less pronounced tailfins and split, stacked horizontal taillights similar to those on the GTO.

67 vs 66 Other

The 1967 Grand Prix also featured concealed windshield wipers and vent-less front windows on hardtop coupes. The standard 400 cubic inch V8 350 horsepower engine (offered through 1970) was the biggest standard engine ever offered on a Grand Prix. A convertible was offered for this one year only, with 5,856 of them produced.
