Pontiac Le Mans 400 CID V8 1969
General description :
For sale in the Chicago showroom is this freshly rebuilt 1969 Pontiac Lemans. A very strong 400 cubic inch Pontiac engine is at the heart of this slick ride. The motor was recently completely rebuilt, and upon reassembly a few goodies were added to complete the package. Some of the toys include a mild street cam, flat tappet lifters, Edelbrock carburetor, and an MSD ignition system. Mated to the rear of the engine, a freshly rebuilt 3-speed automatic transmission with a 2400 rpm B&M stall convertor pushes all the torque clear through to the rear end, which has also been rebuilt recently. The car sits with better stance than ever all thanks to the 2 inch drop spindles up front and lowering springs in the rear, while still maintaining ride comfort all thanks to Eibach shocks on all four corners. The exterior is finished in a very majestic Olympic Gold paint which contrasts the black interior perfectly. Aside from the black vinyl interior, what pops the most is the very sleek Billet Specialties custom steering wheel, and just behind that is a very cool Dakota Digital dash. Completing a perfect transition between the interior and exterior is a new set of Billet Specialties Heritage Series wheels wrapped in brand new Bridgestone Potenza tires. Keeping the cabin at a comfortable temperature no matter what time of year is a complete Classic Auto Air A/C and heater system. If you’ve been looking for an awesome driver car at an equally awesome price, this GTO tribute car is it. Options include: Air Conditioning, Aluminum/Alloy Wheels, AM/FM Radio, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Radial Tires, Seatbelts, and Vinyl Interior.
