For sale is this stunning 1968 Pontiac LeMans Convertible. This car has been pampered and it shows. All but few of these LeMans have found themselves covered with "GTO" badges, making this one refreshingly original. The original 350 cubic inch V8 engine and 3-speed automatic transmission push this steel sleigh through the gears, and the numbers matching rear has been upgraded to an Eaton Posi carrier with Richmond 3.55's.
A smooth layer of deep Verdoro Green paint has been applied over this Pontiac’s original body panels. All the chrome shines bright and sparkles. Step inside and enjoy the gorgeous pearl white vinyl interior, that along with its wood grain dash and matching center console bring a sense of elegance to this beauty. The muscular 5-spoke 17” rims give it a nice aggressive, yet elegant original look.

This is one solid car! You won’t soon find another of this quality or in this shape.
