1968 Pontiac Le Mans

Description

Beautiful, brilliant, and powerful... It's not hard to love this 1968 Pontiac Le Mans. But beyond the desirable triple-black appearance, there's the substance of an enhanced V8, A/C interior, and much more. So this is a turnkey high-end cruiser is at the ultimate take it home price.

Pontiacs of this era have something special about them. The GTOs that were based off this design are cars of legend today. And while we cherished the Endura front end of those back then, the chrome of this Le Mans 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 hood pins, new Cragar wheels, and the rear bumper that fits nicely into this intricate design. But the real desire on this car is inspired by its darkness. It takes an investment in exceptionally strait sheetmetal and a professional hand to get black to look this glossy and even. And the black vinyl roof gives it a premium vintage appearance that an upper class Le Mans should have.

Open the door to see the pristine vinyl interior that completes the desirable triple black package (the triple threat of the dark paint, roof, and interior.) 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 seat. It also helps that the seat covers, headliner, and carpeting are all new. This is a comfortable center console car with bright panels used through the center section and dash to break up its fashionable black. This is also home to everything from the factory-style AM/FM radio and factory air conditioning – all still working nicely today. The driver gets a woodgrain three-spoke steering wheel, and beyond that is the deep tri-pod gauges, including working clock. You might also notice the set of auxiliary readouts, including tach. This is a clear indication that there's something special in the engine bay.

When you lift the hood, you immediately recognize the blue block of the Pontiac 350 cubic-inch V8 radiating out of the dark black engine bay. But that's far from the only shine. The four-barrel carburetor, valve covers, intake, and bold air grabber all have a nice luster, and more importantly, come from the performance masters at Edelbrock. So yes, this motor makes plenty of power, and there's also a fantastic rumble out of the header-fed dual exhaust. Even with the sound and performance of the motor, this Le Mans doesn't betray its premium cruiser roots. The three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and front disc brakes all make for a very pleasing anytime classic.

Sharp, clean, and it even comes with more original components like the two-barrel carburetor and factory wheels. This Pontiac has all the right features and terrific paint for a very nice price. So call us today before someone else gets grabs this deal!
