Please read description and study the pictures carefully. For auction is this 1968 Lemans sport coupe (post), 2 door. original 350 engine and automatic transmission.
This is a one owner car until 2012. originally bought in southern California and move to western Washington in 1994 when the original owner quit driving it and parked in his driveway. It sat there until 2012 when he looked at it, noticed how it had deteriorated and sold it. I bought it to restore and began disassembling it and realized it's too big a job for me. The trunk floor and rear shelf area have server rust. The area below the windshield is bad too. I have since sold parts off the car. It was a nicely optioned car with AC, bucket seats, console, etc. The car DOES NOT come with front seats, console or any underhood AC parts.
The engine runs very well. Does not burn oil. It has a very slight lifter tick, otherwise fine. The trans fluid is bright pink and works well. The floors are decent except the right rear and a few holes under the rear seat. The frame is in excellent condition. Never any accidents. I sold the front fenders, but comes with front wheel wells in good shape. Radiator is fairly new. The doors are both very nice. the quarters just need patches behind the wheels and a few minor dents removed. The trunk lid has some rust on the outer metal but the structure is fine. I drove this car all over last fall and on the freeway. It drove very well. No wandering or vibrations.
Though not pictured, car comes with the original hood, RH grill, and a section above the rear window I removed from a junk car for this car. Also, hood hinges, AC control panel included. And, (2) 14x7 rally II's. The two on the car are 14x6 and are included.The last pic is 2 rear shelf areas that I also cut from another car for this car. They are included.
I am selling with NO RESERVE and cheap. Mainly, I want someone to fix her back up, or make a fine race car out of her.If the car doesn't sell, I will remove the parts and junk it. The car is NOT running right now only because there is no battery. However, DOES RUN VERY WELL! The brakes are bad!! CAr rolls and steering just fine.
The steering column is from a 69, but included is a nice 68 floorshift column. Also, I have a very nice original FULL trunk floor with all bracings from a 68 I will sell fort additional 200.00.
Any questions??? Email me. Buyer pays shipping, but I will aid in loading car.

CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero
Fri, 26 Oct 2012At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."
Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way
Tue, 21 Feb 2012There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
