Ventura, California, United States
|
Less than 2000 miles on rebuilt motor and overdrive transmission. ---- strong and reliable. Daily driven.
This is my a 1969 convertible Pontiac Lemans. I was 3/4 of the way fixing her up when I was laid off. So I can’t finish it. But it doesn't need much now. But what has been done is the following. The motor has been professionally rebuilt by Jasper Motors with the emphasis on reliability and performance. A performance cam...Crane cam 454 lift and a 270 duration, so its not bad on gas but you can burn rubber. Also, the valve train has roller rockers and stud locks. Engine runs great, reliable and runs cool. I drive it daily, in traffic and on the freeway. It has a performance OVERDRIVE automatic transmission, 200R4 with a B&M shifter ..... At 80 miles an hour the engine is only turning 2400 RPM’s Great for Gas mileage, An older car but with a modern overdrive transmission to bring her into the new era of better engine life and MPG! The paint job was done about a year ago. and descent for what I could afford. There are a few nicks and scratches here and there but looks nice. Bushings replaced when the car was lowered and the rest of the suspension is nice and tight. NEW ! POWER Disc brakes installed up front , slotted and drilled. Break lines redone. Rear brakes rebuilt with less than 2000 miles on them. New fuel lines, pump and Gas tank plumbed for EFI if desired in the future. New AUTOGAGE instrument gauges, all work. The car has been lowered 2" . Tires up front are brand new. Rears have less than 2000 miles on them. The car has just been aligned. Brand new shocks. All glass is good/ Windows roll up and down. The car is mechanically a great car and I was then going to concentrate on the interior but then I got laid off. I wanted the car to be a great reliable driver first and that is what it is now. Drives great. Sounds like the 60's with the custom exhaust. __________________________________________________________________ Here’s what I would have done and or needs doing: Drive it as it is or... The convertible top canvas needs replacing( I have a replacement header bow that comes with the car). Also the top was working fine up until a week ago. Probably a fuse. I have not replaced it. So I just manually do it. The interior upholstery is dirty and has nicks and a tear on one of the seats. Carpet has been cut to install the shifter. I would replace it. Dash cracked from sun. No radio. Car has a few little little rust spots but not real noticeable. In the trunk lower side panel on the left side has rust but not noticeable from outside vehicle ( panel can be replaced if you cared to) Drivers door lock sometimes doesn’t work. May need lubricating? I was inspecting it and that is why the door panel inside is missing. I didn’t put it back on cause I always intended to replace the interior. I through it out. Turn signal unit in steering column needs replacing BUT I have a brand new unit to go in that comes with car. Easy install. The Endura bumper could be fitter better...the body to bumper gaps are a little wider than I would like, but it looks good overall. __________________________________________________________________ ALL THE HARD WORK IS DONE.. I tried to describe the car as best I can and with what I know. But I encourage buyers to ask as many questions as you have. And also included in the auction... I have a red Chevelle (1968 A body) seat upholstery kit un-used that will come with the car ( front and rear seats and front and rear door panels, with side arm rest, conv. well covers and rear side panels...and a red carpet ) I got as a deal from a guy who never installed it in his car. I was going to install it in mine, but I never got around to it. So I will include it in the auction. Or you can just sell the red interior and get your own if you want. PAYMENT:Non Refundable Deposit of 500.00 due with in 24 hours paid via Paypal. And a balance to be paid by Cashiers check with in 7 days. I’m not a dealer so car is sold AS IS, no warranty implied or stated. Prefer you pick it up but I will ship it at owners expense. I know some shippers and the cost varies such as 600 dollars to 1500.00, maybe more depending on location. My zip code is 93001, Ventura, California. |

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later
Fri, 12 Sep 2014
Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
