1974 Pontiac Le Mans Description
Up for sale is a 1974 Pontiac LeMans Sports Coupe. The car has a monster 455 engine (Not Original for the car) an Edlebrock intake and 750 Edlebrock carb. She does run and drive, but needs TLC to make it road worthy again. The exhaust needs to be redone. The mufflers were replaced with glass pack, and the pipes were cut and are sitting on the rear sway bar. Defiantly needs new tires as they are cracked and dry rotted. She has a posi rear end, and an automatic transmission. The body is in good shape. The interior isn't too bad the seats are good but the dash pad is extremely cracked apart and the area next to the rear window has no carpeting. Disc brakes in the front drums in the rear. The odometer reads 62,300 miles. Paint is faded, and I don't believe its the original paint color but I'm not sure. A push button start was installed where the cigarette lighter was, because the ignition would turn on but not start the car. The car fires right up, but could defiantly use a good tune up. Once a week I drive it around the block so she doesn't sit to long. Its a fun car to drive. The wiper motor was recently replaced with a brand new one. Rims are universal rims I don't believe they are the original rims. The radio is missing and the AC/Heater controls are not hooked up, the AC itself is not hooked up.
