1969 Pontiac Le Mans Restomod 94974 Miles Champagne Hardtop LQ9 6.0 Liter 4 Spee

1969 Pontiac Le Mans Restomod Additional Info:

Here's a shining premium classic, that's a real sleeper underneath. After all, while you see a nicely-restored/preserved classic 1969 Pontiac LeMans on the outside, beneath the skin is a modern 400hp 6.0-liter fuel-injected heart. Pontiacs of this era have something special about them. The GTOs that were based off this hardtop design are now cars of legend. While we cherished the Endura front end of those back in the day, the chrome of the LeMans seems to make a bolder... statement today. It's like a shiny beak of a bird that's ready to take fight. It matches nicely with the other bright elements like the form-fitting rear bumper, complete window trim, grille, and the iconic Rally II wheels. Professionally repainted its factory-correct Champagne, this is a bright color that looks like it belongs on a Mercedes. And the black vinyl roof gives this coupe a premium vintage appearance that an upper-class LeMans should have. The black roof is also a nice preview of the interior color. You paid a little bit more for a Pontiac back in the day, and the premium difference can be felt the moment you sit down in the bucket seats. Plus, the wood paneling on the center console and dash add to the first-class atmosphere. This car feels highly original and exceptionally well preserved, right down to the factory three-spoke steering wheel. But then you also start to notice some extras. For example, the original AM radio is still on display, but the real tunes come from a more modern AM/FM/MP3 stereo mounted on the headliner. As you look at the sporty round gauge package, you'll remember that few LeMans coupes needed a large tach like this one. But when you twist the key, and hear the roar, you instantly know why that's needed. Under the hood is something very unexpected. This classic Pontiac has modern LQ9 Vortec power. The 6.0-liter fuel-injected V8 might not be original to this coupe, but they sure made it look at home with a tidy installation that even includes an engine cover that coordinates with the exterior color. Inhaling deep through a Spectra cold air intake, and given a full performance tune, this motor is said to be producing 400 horsepower - and that's not overstated like the muscle car days. You're looking at reliable fuel injection jointed with stump-pulling power, which makes for an irresistible combination. This modern V8 connects to the modern 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission. In fact, there is a race mode shift pattern that you engage simply by pressing the red "Go Baby Go" button in the ashtray. The final step to making sure this power gets to the pavement is an updated limited slip rear end with versatile 3.55 gears. More than just an engine and transmission drop-in, this one was built with true driving comfort in mind. That's why it has a custom-built and balanced driveshaft, power steering, power brakes, an upgraded suspension with KYB shocks, and thick sway bars front & rear. Plus, it has cruise control, and the remember, the transmission also has highway-friendly overdrive. Doesn't this sound like the perfect Power Tour machine? That's why this one has complete it twice without incident. This is a full and complete build that also comes with great paperwork like the original window sticker, owner's manual, warranty card, and bill of sale. We don't even have all the room here to go into all the upgrades, so call us for all the details. But you already know it's the cool/custom/sleeper you've been looking for, and this might be you're only chance at a one-of-a-kind like this. Call now!
