1968 Pontiac Lemans on 2040-cars
Tacoma, Washington, United States
I'm going to begin with the only bad news on the car...there is no title. Again, car does not come with an actual title. But, car will come with 4 bills of sale back to the 1980's and a registration. Yes, the car is completely legal to drive.In the state of Washington, a title can be obtained after the car is inspected, VIN checked and after a 3 years waiting period. The VIN is clean. The car has been inspected by the Washington State highway patrol and passed. The car was then registered in June 2013. So, in June 2016, I will have a title. In the meantime the car can be registered and driven normally, just no paper title. The car can also be sold and the new owner can register it in his/her name and wait out the REMAINDER of the 3-year period IF they live in Washington. If not, some states with honor this so please check your state. Or you can obtain a title through a title company as the car is clean, not rebuilt, not salvaged and never altered...
1968 Pontiac LeMans 2 door hardtop. Completely original condition as it came from the factory. But the engine and transmission are not matching. They are however the same year and code as original.This is not a Sprint model, just the base OHC 1 bbl. It gets good gas mileage, always starts, stops and handles very well. The body is is excellent shape. I sanded the car to it's original Verdoro Green paint and found hardly any rust. There were dents here and there but no major collisions. All the body panels are original except the trunk lid and panel below the rear window which is a repro piece I installed due to rust there.The car never had a vinyl top. The trunk lid is off a GTO so there are no PONTIAC emblem holes. The lid is in real nice condition. The floors are in great shape and original as is the trunk floor. There is 2 small rust holes in the trunk floor and some rust scale but not severe at all. The frame is excellent: no rust or damage. The engine runs very well. It was rebuilt long ago. I recently had hardened exhaust valve seats installed. It runs very strong. The transmission is a Saginaw 3-speed and it doesnt make any noises, pop out of gear or grind. The car has manual drum brakes and manual steering. The brakes work very well. The steering is a bit stiff in parking lots but it does have wide tires on it. The car has an original AM/FM radio in it that works great. According to the PHS documents that I obtained and go with the car, it also had an 8-track player! But it was gone when I got the car. The steering wheel is wrong, I dont have the correct one. The interior needs a complete redo. The carpet is new. The factory clock sometimes works, but most of the time it does not. The horn and windshield washers don't work. everything else works. Overall, this is a great car for a full restoration,GTO clone, or to build up to your own liking. I understand that buying a car in primer is not wise. And I would probably be hesitant to bid on the car because "who knows whats under that primer?" But I will tell you in complete honesty, the is NOT a rust bucket or a hacked up, bondo filled automobile. Yes, there is body filler. but NO filler over rust or body panels 'formed' with bondo!! The body fits are very good. The car can be primed, blocked ONCE and painted and it will look beautiful. But if the new owner views the car before payment and doesnt like it, no problem. He/she will not be obligated to buy it, no questions asked! Any questions? Need more pics? No sweat, ask away! Set at very low reserve. |

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle
Sun, Aug 21 2022The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

General Motors Recall List
Wed, Oct 22 2014It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. We used the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recall list to compile a snapshot of all the GM vehicles recalled in the last two months. NHTSA also provides a search engine that allows owners to search for recalls on their vehicle. An automotive company must do everything in their power to notify its customers when a recall is issued on a vehicle. If you own any of the following vehicles and you have questions regarding your car, you can contact Chevrolet at 1-866-694-6546, GMC at 1-866-996-9463, Buick at 1-800-521-7300 and Cadillac at 1-866-982-2339. Or check out General Motor's recall site. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or go to www.safercar.gov. Here's a brief summery of the other vehicles currently under recall: July 26 – 414,333 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V447000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal and Chevrolet Camaro, as well as certain 2010-2012 Cadillac SRX, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles, equipped with power height adjustable driver and passenger seats. Problem: In the affected vehicles, the bolt that secures the driver's and passenger's power front seat height adjuster may fall out causing the seat to drop suddenly to the lowest vertical position. Consequence: If the driver's seat unexpectedly drops, the distraction and altered seat position may affect the drivers' control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Solution: Dealers will replace the height adjuster shoulder bolts, free of charge. July 14 – 16,939 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V341000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011 Cadillac CTS vehicles manufactured October 18, 2010, to June 2, 2011. Problem: In the affected vehicles, vibrations from the drive shaft may cause the vehicle's roll over sensor to command the roof rail air bags to deploy. Consequence: If the roof rail air bags deploy unexpectedly, there is an increased risk of crash and injury to the occupants.
Junkyard Gem: 1989 Pontiac Sunbird SE Coupe
Sat, Jun 11 2022General Motors built the fantastically successful J-Body cars starting at the dawn of the 1980s and continuing well into our current century, on five continents. The Pontiac Division's version of the J started out being called the J2000 and the 2000, then got the Sunbird name originally used on the Pontiac-ized Chevy Monza starting in 1983. Here's a once-slick-looking 1989 Sunbird SE Coupe, found at a Minneapolis-area boneyard way back in 2016. The best-known of all the J-Body cars, here, was the Chevrolet Cavalier, but Pontiac far outdid even the most blinged-up Cavalier Z24 when it came to elaborate taillights. Because this is Minnesota, the car is a patchwork of various layers of junkyard-obtained rusty body parts. One fender has TURBO badges from a Sunbird GT. The other side has the correct engine badges for this model. That engine is a 2.0-liter, single-overhead-cam straight-four from an engine family originally developed for the Opel Kadett D. This one was rated at 96 horsepower when new. This one has the automatic transmission, so it wouldn't have been very much fun to drive. Check out that cool parking brake handle, though! And, hey, is that a full can of Colorado Cool-Aid in the foot well? You'd think a proper Minnesota Pontiac would at least be full of Grain Belt cans. It appears that Higley Ford in Windom, Minn., had this car on the lot at some point. Windom is closer to Sioux Falls than to Minneapolis. This final mileage total looks good for a car living in Tinworm Country. Pontiac built this generation of Sunbird from the 1988 through 1994 model years, though it was really just a facelift of the first-generation cars. Starting in 1995, the Pontiac J-Body became the Sunfire, and production continued until the J platform itself got the axe in 2005. This content is hosted by a third party.
