Turnkey cruiser! Complete body off frame restoration with
significant upgrades just finished in 2022, and only 350 miles
since. It had 1 owner for 39 years that went all out on the build
for sentimental reasons and then didn't use it. With upgrades like
a fuel injected LS3, overdrive auto trans, pro touring suspension,
and a custom interior, this drop top LeMans is destined for
greatness!
EXTERIOR: Smooth and slick! The Grenadier Red Diamont base
coat/clear coat paint was applied with great attention to detail.
It was then polished to a shiny glass like finish. The panels were
all painstakingly aligned and have good gaps that are above
average. The doors have new latches and close easily with minimal
effort. Looking down the side of the arrow straight body you will
see smooth contours and crisp lines. The original bumpers were
rechromed and the original stainless trim was polished. The glass
was all replaced including new rubber seals and fuzzy strips. It
has an upgraded rich black cloth power top and the frame was
restored. The headlights were replaced plus the bezels and front
grille are looking sharp. It is rolling on a classy set of new 18"
billet Rally II wheels wrapped in radial tires.
INTERIOR: Done right! They started by gutting the interior and
applying Dynomat sound deadener. Then all the wiring was replaced
with an American Autowire wiring system. The custom TMI seats are
comfortable and supportive and have red accent stitching to
compliment the exterior. The front buckets recline and it has
seatbelts front and back. The door and side panels were replaced
including the armrests, levers, and handles. The dash was neatly
painted gloss black and the gauges upgraded to Dakota Digital (with
a switch on the dash to flip options). The factory climate control
was retrofitted to operate the air conditioning when on "de-ice"
and "cooler". A digital stereo fits in the factory hole and kick
panel speakers were integrated. It also has an Ididit tilt column
with a cushion grip wheel. The original style center console now
has charging ports and an armrest with additional storage and cup
holders. The carpeting, sun visors, and rearview mirror were all
replaced. The frame for the power top was also restored.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: 6.2 liter LS3 swap! 430 horsepower! Turnkey
reliability! It is equipped with fuel injection and stainless
headers. Features include Vintage Air heat and a/c, power steering,
and power brakes. An aluminum radiator with dual electric fans
keeps it running cool. It also has a matching overflow bottle. The
original cowl tag is in place. The wiring, wiper motor, belts and
hoses have been replaced. The underside of the hood, fender wells,
and firewall were all painted gloss black. Even the latch mechanism
was replaced, and the fender bolts upgraded to stainless steel.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Nice and clean! Under the trunk lid and inside
the jamb are painted slick like the exterior. The weatherstrip was
replaced. The battery was relocated to the trunk and properly
secured with an aluminum hold down. All the taillight wiring was
redone. The metal is solid and rust free with a neatly applied
spatter finish paint. The power top pump, lines and well liner were
replaced too.
UNDERSIDE: Many performance upgrades! Body off frame restoration.
The steering system was rebuilt and works great. Up front it has
some fat tubular control arms and a swaybar with coilover
adjustable shocks. Out back it also has coilover adjustable gas
shocks, a swaybar, and Currie Currectrac aluminum control arms. It
also has a totally upgraded brake system with disc at all four
wheels and new lines too. A Pypes stainless exhaust system with
x-pipe, Turbo Pro mufflers and splitter tips provide the perfect
exhaust tone. It also has a Tanks fuel system that is compatible
with EFI. Looking up at the engine it has a Holley oil pan and a
high torque starter. The 4L65E overdrive automatic transmission
with a Shift Works shift kit is a much appreciated option. The
trans mount is also new. An aluminum driveshaft leads back to the
Quick Performance 9 inch rear end with 3.73 posi gears. The floors
are solid and rust free with satin black paint.
SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we
built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and
hired a team of technicians to work it. This is so we can sell you
the best cars within reason.
Detailed restoration! This is a nice and fresh body off frame build
with only 350 miles since completion. All the build time and money
have already been spent. The only thing it needs is a new owner
that wants to drive till their heart is content!
For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the
highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide
is my professional opinion based on my experience with these
vehicles. However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a
personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always
available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is
to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase
the car and share our team's insights. **Our cars are displayed
within a museum setting. If you are interested in a specific
vehicle, please schedule an appointment with a salesperson to view
it. Without an appointment, there is an admission fee to enter the
showroom. If you decide to purchase a car, your admission will be
refunded, and you'll receive a one-year museum membership.
