1969 Lemans Convertible W/ Overdrive Automatic, Great Driver Gto Clone on 2040-cars
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. It has a GTO Endura front bumper and tail lights installed. I was in the middle of fixing her up when I was laid off. So I can’t finish it. But what has been done is the following. The motor has been rebuilt with a performance cam...Crane cam 454 lift and a 270 duration, so its not bad on gas but you can burn rubber. It has a performance overdrive transmission with shift kit and best parts installed ( good up to 450 hp) ....200R4 with a B&M shifter. At 80 miles an hour the engine is only turning 2400 RPM’s Great for Gas mileage, Custom hood air intakes. New 4-row all aluminum radiator...with fan control. Bushings replaced and the rest of the suspension is nice and tight. Disc brakes up front installed, 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 instruments, all work. Tires up front are brand new. Rears have less than 2000 miles on them. The car has just been aligned. Brand new shocks. Lowering springs installed Hooker thick wall headers with 2.5 dual exhaust just installed. 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 and handles great. No rumbles, squeaks or rattles. Sounds great too. So I could not get to the other non mechanical stuff. But...(not in pictures) I did buy and will include a all red Chevelle(A body) seat upholstery kit front and rear and front and rear red door panels, with side arm rest, conv. well covers and side panels...and a red carpet to match. __________________________________________________________________ Here’s what I would have done and or needs doing: 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. Some rust was in the wheel well arches but only around the inner lips and would be covered if you put the chrome molding back on. I liked the non chromed look so I took them off. 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. Heater works but controls could be replaced as sliders need lubing. Turn signal cam 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...you pick your interior for your own taste or drive as is. 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. Non Refundable Deposit of 500.00 due with in 24 hours paid via Paypal. 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. |

Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you're an automotive engineer being tormented by an immortal being made of fire, then wouldn't you think it best to have a custom coupe called the FireBreather for your getaway car? That's the FireBreather in the image above, adorned by the red wings that once fronted the Pontiac Firebird, running away from a black cloud of evil in a trailer for the movie Jinn.
The Jinn is eternal evil, always waiting for the chance to make things float across rooms before going on homicidal urban rampages. The FireBreather is a Gen-V Chevrolet Camaro - from the V6 to the ZL1 - that's been through Classic Design Concepts' extensive list of exterior and interior modifications, including entirely new front and rear fascias and side skirts, sway bars and springs, Pirelli P Zeroes and an available Edelbrock supercharger.
The movie - FireBreathing chase scenes and all - was shot in Monroe, Michigan. You can watch the trailer below, but since the FireBreather only get a couple of seconds on screen, you can find out more about it on Street Legal TV and its official site.
Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
6 car mashups that God never intended
Sat, May 17 2014In the 2000s, the musical mashup genre saw a peak of popularity with releases like The Grey Album from Danger Mouse that mixed The Beatles and Jay-Z. UK artist James Pursey from Carwow decided to take the same concept of shoehorning two disparate things together but applied the concept to cars. Your opinion on the results will vary with your sense of humor. These creations are either some funny pieces of abstract art or absolute monstrosities that prove good design should be left alone. Likely the best of the bunch is the Lambotomic (pictured above), which combines a Lamborghini Miura and an Ariel Atom. Granted, the Ariel is little more than a skeleton to begin with, and the outcome looks like a slightly stretched Atom with the new nose and tail from one of the most beautiful vehicles ever. This could actually work. Though, not all of the mashups are quite so pleasant. The Porschiac WW RS (pictured right) is absolutely disgusting. It combines a Pontiac Aztek, which isn't a beauty queen to start with, and a Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Obviously, the 911 is an iconic shape in autonobolia, but that can't save it from the horror of the Aztek. Pursey fits the its nose, wheel, wing, roll cage and stripes onto the Pontiac. The outcome: A design that will show up in your nightmares. Check out the gallery for the rest of the mashups, including the Humi (a Humvee and a Mini), Aston Smartin (Aston Martin and Smart), Rangerini (Range Rover and Lamborghini Aventador) and the Mazdafenda (Mazda MX-5 Miata and Land Rover Defender). They might not all be beautiful (or even pretty), but it's fun to imagine these oddball creations actually driving down the road.
