Please read description and study the pictures carefully. For auction is this 1968 Lemans sport coupe (post), 2 door. original 350 engine and automatic transmission.
This is a one owner car until 2012. originally bought in southern California and move to western Washington in 1994 when the original owner quit driving it and parked in his driveway. It sat there until 2012 when he looked at it, noticed how it had deteriorated and sold it. I bought it to restore and began disassembling it and realized it's too big a job for me. The trunk floor and rear shelf area have server rust. The area below the windshield is bad too. I have since sold parts off the car. It was a nicely optioned car with AC, bucket seats, console, etc. The car DOES NOT come with front seats, console or any underhood AC parts.
The engine runs very well. Does not burn oil. It has a very slight lifter tick, otherwise fine. The trans fluid is bright pink and works well. The floors are decent except the right rear and a few holes under the rear seat. The frame is in excellent condition. Never any accidents. I sold the front fenders, but comes with front wheel wells in good shape. Radiator is fairly new. The doors are both very nice. the quarters just need patches behind the wheels and a few minor dents removed. The trunk lid has some rust on the outer metal but the structure is fine. I drove this car all over last fall and on the freeway. It drove very well. No wandering or vibrations.
Though not pictured, car comes with the original hood, RH grill, and a section above the rear window I removed from a junk car for this car. Also, hood hinges, AC control panel included. And, (2) 14x7 rally II's. The two on the car are 14x6 and are included.The last pic is 2 rear shelf areas that I also cut from another car for this car. They are included.
I am selling with NO RESERVE and cheap. Mainly, I want someone to fix her back up, or make a fine race car out of her.If the car doesn't sell, I will remove the parts and junk it. The car is NOT running right now only because there is no battery. However, DOES RUN VERY WELL! The brakes are bad!! CAr rolls and steering just fine.
The steering column is from a 69, but included is a nice 68 floorshift column. Also, I have a very nice original FULL trunk floor with all bracings from a 68 I will sell fort additional 200.00.
Any questions??? Email me. Buyer pays shipping, but I will aid in loading car.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod
Fri, 21 Feb 2014There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.
