1966 Pontiac Le Mans Coupe Grey RWD Manual

1966 Pontiac Le Mans Silver with black vinyl roof and black stripes Additional Info:

I bought this car here on ebay, I had to put a new battery in it, I also replaced the rear springs, and rear shocks. I also put 15 inch wheel vintiques rally 2 wheels, with brand new cooper cobra tires, I also have the set that came with the car and they are rally 1 wheel, 14 inch with brand new cooper cobra tires, so you will have a choice of wheels.

The motor seemed pretty strong but sometimes there would be a loud shreeking noise coming from the timing chain area, so I bought a new water pump and double roller timing chain, and I did see evidence that the chain was slightly rubbing on the cover, so then I removed the valve covers to remove the rocker arms and discovered 2 of the rocker arm studs were repaired in the past and the repair did not hold, see picture of this in the photos. I did not expect this and I have to get back to my other cars that are under restoration. I don't have the space for 3 cars that are down. I don't know what it will take to make this car right, I know it will need the head either repaired or replaced, it is possible it may need some other parts, that will be up to the new owner to determine.

I am still learning Pontiacs, and I noticed that there were baffles that were bolted on instead of built in to the valve covers, so I did a little research on this and found out that these baffles only came on Ram air 4 heads. I have included picture of these baffles and the casting number of the heads. They might be a later model head.

I have all receipts and documentation from the previous owner and also his description of the car below, also have clear Oklahoma title in my name.

Much more, nearly $7,000 in new parts in the last year. Car runs, drives and stops very well. Quick and fast, lots of fun and gets a lot of thumbs-up. I bought it as a project after it sat in a garage on a concrete floor for 14 years.
