Original '63 Lemans Convertible, In Need Of A Little Tlc on 2040-cars
Seaford, Delaware, United States
|
This LeMans was owned by a Pontiac dealer who left it outside in western New Jersey. I am the second owner so far as I know, and have owned it for well over ten years. It is now stored indoors. It blew oil smoke so I have had the engine rebuilt by a mechanic/machinist and he did a great job. Car is currently in southern Delaware and was driven here last fall. I drive it once or twice a month to keep it happy. I started to get into the body work and it turned out to be more than my feeble expertise would permit. It is a unit body car so the wheel wells and the quarter panels should be addressed by someone more knowledgeable than myself. There are other minor issues of rust but even I could handle them so it is the lower quarters and rocker panels that concern me, see the pictures. The interior is nice for the age, the driver seat could use some padding. There are no power brakes, windows, air conditioning, cruise control or any other of the fancy stuff. I believe the previous owner may have repainted the car at some point. The car is bone stock as far as I can tell. I have other projects that I must finish so this one needs to find a new home and somebody to care for it. The car needs to be paid for in full before departing, cash is preferred but Paypal is available as well.

This GTO-El Camino mashup is the muscle truck of our dreams
Fri, Aug 31 2018There were a hell of a lot of great muscle cars in the mid-1960s, from the baroque Dodges and Plymouths of the earlier part of the decade to the wild big boys like the Boss 429 and Olds 442 W30. Right in the middle of the decade, two of the most iconic of the bunch emerged — the Pontiac GTO and second-generation Chevy El Camino. And this one is a 1964 Chevy El Camino with the heart and face of its GTO cousin, and dubbed the El Chieftain GTO. It's currently for sale at RM Sotheby's Auburn auction, with no reserve status or estimate listed. This looks like a product that Pontiac could have sold at the time — its builder, Ron Lindeman, did an excellent job making it look like a factory product, right down to the taillight strakes inspired by the GTO. It's powered by a 389 — a Pontiac motor that was actually found in period GTOs, but sporting a single four-barrel instead of the sexy Tri-Power setup. It is, however, equipped with a Hurst four-speed manual and the grille badge to prove it to bystanders. Even the interior is made up to look like a GTO. We wish there was more of a description of the build in the listing, but if you love it, do us one better and buy the thing and invite us to poke around it. We are very much in love with this muscle-truck mashup.

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.
