Vehicle Description
Here's ones for those who like to look a bit different in their
muscle cars. When you park next to another Pontiac at car shows,
everybody will start to see how elegantly different this 1966
Pontiac LeMans coupe is. But the more than just a meticulous
frame-off restoration, this one is going to grab attention because
it was upgraded to be just as powerful as a GTO, too!
Stacked headlights, the pointed hood, and those flying buttress
C-pillars make this LeMans look like a much more expensive car. In
fact, it's no surprise this one continues to have a premium image
because there has been a lot invested in keeping it looking so
fresh. This coupe was given a fame-off restoration that was
completed in 2018. It was upgraded to Pontiac's Montero Red paint.
This was an expensive seven-layer PPG application, and the modern
clearcoat luster loves to highlight the crispness of the body
panels. It's a detail-oriented package, right down to the
stereo-style taillights you could only get on a '66 Tempest LeMans.
And while the whole coupe gives off a proper premium image, the
Cragar SS-wheels also brightly announce there's something special
under the hood (more on that in a moment.)
More of the detail-oriented restoration awaits you inside. They
even powder coated the seat frames and springs before adding fresh
upholstery. That's the kind of commitment that gets you a terrific
feeling interior. Plus, the door panels, dash, carpet, headliner,
and other details all have the unmistakable appearance of a quality
investment. As a premium LeMans, they really wanted to get the
vintage upscale atmosphere correct, and so even the wood-like trim
looks great. This also draws your attention to nice features like
the center console and sporty round gauge package with large speedo
and tach. You'll love all the vintage features - from the correct
trunk mat to the AM radio that's still cranking out tunes. And
while this is for lovers of factory-style atmosphere, you'll spot
some well-integrated worthwhile upgrades. The three-spoke steering
wheel feels great in your hands, the gear selector nicely
integrates overdrive, and there's even a B&M lockup
converter.
People are already going to mistake this LeMans for a GTO, so why
not make sure you can teach the Goats a lesson on the streets?
That's why you have the mighty 400 cubic-inch V8. Everything in the
engine bay looks pristine and new, because this was all part of the
comprehensive restoration investment. Glossy inner-fenders,
polished valve covers, and fresh components are all part of a
package you'll want to show off. And of course, those three bright
air toppers are an instant indicator of the triple set of
dual-barrel Rochester carburetors. Not only does the V8 inhale
deeply with Tri-Power, but also it exhales with extra power out of
the long tube headers on their way to the dual exhaust. The whole
package is said to make 400+ horsepower. The undercarriage photos
are more proof of how much they stressed every inch on the
restoration. But as pretty as this one is, it's also built to be
enjoyed. That's why you have the upgraded four-speed automatic
transmission and a Positraction rear end.
This is a long-term Arizona car with a terrific recent frame-off
restoration. The original engine and transmission can even come
with the sale if you like. This is a cool mix of power, premium,
uniqueness, and quality. Call today!!!
