1971 Pontiac Lemans Le Mans Sport + Many Extras on 2040-cars
Omaha, Nebraska, United States

About the car:
2-door hardtop, Pontiac 350 CID, TH350 transmission, power steering & brakes, A/C (not hooked up), body in primer. Sport model means it has bucket seats, floor shifter, luxury interior, etc… I bought this car approx. 10 yrs ago from a friend who did bodywork. He replaced both rear quarters with new sheetmetal, primered the body, ready for paint. Some lady eventually hit the car on the driver’s side, causing damage: right fender – small dent; driver fender, door, rocker panel, B-pillar and quarter panel – damaged; front control arm(s) – bent from hitting the curb. Technically runs & drives, but realistically the steering is goofy with the bent control arm(s), and the door doesn’t latch shut because of the bent B-pillar, so it’s a small project car that could quickly become a daily driver. The good: - Car is overall in good condition. Some surface rust like you would normally see in various places, but nothing that can’t be brushed/sanded & painted. - Brown interior is in overall great condition with some wear due to the age – dash and headliner are original and pretty much like new; door panels are like new, but vinyl on handles have cracks; center console is great, just needs compartment lid; passenger seat is like new, except for 1 small tear (rest of seats probably need re-upholstered); interior carpet has some wear in driver area and stain in back seat, but is otherwise in great condition. - Engine runs great, transmission shifts perfect - Very solid original car The bad: - Obviously, the damage from the accident - Driver & rear seats have tears (mentioned above) - Some son of a b1t5h tried to break into the trunk and popped the lock out, but was too stupid to figure out how to open it afterwards. The metal around the tumbler and edges got bent, but should hopefully be fixable decently easily. Many new parts come with the car: Replacement parts that I bought due to the damage: - Driver’s side door – rust-free door off of an AZ or TX car (already hung) - Rocker panel – new from Original Parts Group - Quarter panel – new from Original Parts Group - Upper & lower control arms + disc brake assemblies & booster (to upgrade from drums) off of a 69 GTO, I believe, but I’m not sure Upgrades already done: - Powertrax performance locker (rear-end) - Intake manifold off of a ’67 Pontiac 350, I believe - Modified glass packs (nice deep bass sounds awesome) - Rear suspension: springs have been replaced with heavy duty truck springs for tighter ride (may have originals laying around, but these are perfect) - Ignition: points system has been replaced with HEI Upgrade parts not yet installed: - Hellwig sway bar - Energy Suspension polyurethane control arm bushings - B&M Stage 1 & 2 shift kit - Moog matched set front coil springs - Federal Mogul upper ball joints - Federal Mogul lower ball joints - Federal Mogul inner & outer tie rods complete kits - Federal Mogul idler arm - 4 BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires 255/60R15 (2) + 235/60R14 (2) on chrome Progressive rims – all brand new + other miscellaneous hardware, trim badging, etc... I don't have the time to take on this project, and I need to make room in the garage, so my loss is your gain. Over $4,000 in parts & extras alone, reserve is set low so I can move it. This auction is for everything listed here. Local pick-up welcome, buyer responsible for any/all shipping fees. |

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.
GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.
