1969 Pontiac GTO Additional Info:
With some reluctance for the first time in my 20 years of ownership, I am offering my 1969 Pontiac LeMans Convertible for sale.
The quick list: New Kaufmann Racing 1969 428; Gear vendors Overdrive, New staggered 18" Michelins, nice body and interior; new rebuilt 12 bolt Posi w Eaton 3.31.
I have owned this car since the 90s and only selling it as I just don't drive it. I am also selling my 71 Roadrunner and 70 Chevelle.
I had it painted my a local well known superior painter almost 20 years ago and I got what I paid for, it still looks amazing and turns heads wherever it goes....and it goes. I used to drive it to Canada pretty regularly and I have never put it in a show. It was made to drive and that was with the original 350 2bbl and 2 speed which is included and or available at a price reduction.
The current rare 69 428 w 18 Casting heads engine was built by Kaufann racing here in Ohio at an expense of about $10k. I used only American parts in the build including custom DSS pistons and Crower Rods. It was overbuilt. It has less than 500 miles on it. Stock distributor w rev limiter pertonix. Stock quadrajet built by Cliff at great expense.
Same low mileage on Pypes dual crossover exhaust.
Same mileage with the rebuilt turbo 350 done by a local guru.
Same mileage with the Gear Vendors Overdrive unit (makes the 3 speed auto into a 5 speed Auto. Read up on them if you aren't familiar. I did this as they are reliable and leave the stock console and shifter in place.
Same mileage on the 12 bolt donated from a 442 and rebuilt with American made Timken bearings, USA Ring and Pinion 3.31 gears and Eaton Tru Trac
The staggered smokey American Racing wheels are also new along with the Michelin tires...no cheap foreign black round things.
The top is in nice shape but rarely put up.
Front seat covers are new but weren't really needed. The original ones were just tired. Rear seat is original and in great shape.
The color is chrome yellow with premium clear. It is still show quality but driver used.
It has a clean dash with tach. The odometer on this car broke at about 30 some k miles the first time around and I never wanted to fix it. The speedometer works fine and the lack of seeing mileage accrue is sort of like golfing without keeping score. It is just fun
I thought to clone this as people do but I prefer the chrome bumpers instead on Enduro plastic. She is a sweetheart.
I will sell for $25k with the original 350 2bbl and 2 speed installed.
Thank you,
Rudy
