1968 Pontiac LeMans

- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2024
- Manufactured in five generations in the 1960s and 1970s, it was replaced by the downsized Pontiac Grand Am. From 1988 to 1993 the name was resurrected for a badge-engineered version of the Daewoo LeMans manufactured by Daewoo in South Korea.
It is named for the French city of Le Mans which has been the site of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the world's oldest active endurance sports car race since it began in 1923.

That big crome bumper on the back helps it hookup and also gives the guy in the road runner some thing pretty to look at
Currently restoring a 1969 Lemans 2 door hardtop and this video really motivated me not to give up on it.
That’s cool! Thanks!
Post some progress video might help someone down the line. 😉
How smooth the engine sounds at idle, it’s just soothing to the ears.
Great car !
To me, those 1968-1972 GM A-Body cars are best-looking classic cars. They are easy to work on, and what makes them special is that each GM division had the freedom to design and build their powertrain. They were:
1968-1972 Chevrolet Chevelle
/SS/Malibu
1968-1972 Pontiac Tempest/GTO/LeMans
1968-1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass/442/F-85
1968-1972 Buick Skylark/GSX/Special
1968-1969 Acadian Beaumont/SD
👍
Classic unmistakable profile.
And the power train is why most of them are still around. 😇
Beautiful car! I have a 72' Le Mans🤘🏻
Me too.
My dad bought a '69 Le Mann's with a 350 2-barrel carb. No dual exhausts. Vinyl bucket seats, AM radio and air conditioning. The color was pea green with a dark green vinyl top and dark green interior.
ok
my dad has a '74 Le Mans with a 350 too haha. we put in a 4 barrel carb, x pipe, and he also found out the previous owner had bored it .030 over so it's a 360. the heads were cooked so we replaced them, new springs, lunati voodo cam, and now it runs great!
If you look closely, you can tell the similarities in the LeMans, Chevelles, Olds 442's and the Skylarks. They all shared the same GM A-Body.
I have a 1970 Pontiac Lemans looks just like this one.. Its black with the crager mag wheels and the windows are black tinted. Beautiful car...
Great minds think alike! Thanks!
beautiful shots, love it man!
Thanks!! 🥂
the 1968 and 69 Lemans tempest and gto were the best designs. the 1970 maybe
Looks incredible and sounds so sweet!!! Had a '68 LeMans in Verdura green that I factory ordered. Loved that car. Wish I never let it go.
Check out my other videos because there is a Verdoro Green 1968 Lemans that I had sold prior to this build. Might help with your trip down memory lane, and possible the drivers seat in the future? Thanks for the nice words. Good day!
That thing is beautiful but I've always liked hot rods to be sitting up a little higher in the back.
This one definitely had rear overhang, in a good way! 🤘
Love it , the 68 Lemans was the best over all , GTO . That front chrome bumper is the best look over any GTO
Love my Pontiacs , the 68 Lemans is the highest desired by me
😎👍
A dude is selling it for $1!! It need restoration though and doesn’t run. I would buy it, but I’m already working on a project car.
That’s one badass LeMans! I’m saving this video as motivation for me to finish my project car!
Thanks! Post up some videos!
In 1968 my father bought his first brand new car the lemans as we pulled out of the parking lot, he stopped, looked at me and said wow you don’t even hear the engine,, a far cry from $100 old cars he used to drive,,2300.00
O tempo passa e o Pontiac gto Le Mans continua sendo um ícone . Lindo carro .
68 to 79 Lemans and Tempest are gorgeous cars. I almost like them better than the GTOs..very clean example here...The Pontiac 350 is a smooth motor with great torque! She buzzes right along...nice. I was running a 350 setup with good heads / big cam / H.O. manifolds and quadrajet before I finalized my 400 engine...was very close to same power as my stock Ram Air III 400 build....you can do allot with that 350.
Couldn't agree more! I've yet to have a GTO although I was very close at grabbing an orange "Judge" tribute. You've definitely put a bug in my ear again.. *Opens up Craigslist....*
I agree. GTOs are cool but too popular. Be different get a LeMans or Tempest.
I loved the 68 and 69, LeMans and the GTO. I was 17, and got the last LeMans before emissions. A 72 still cool looking, and that 350ci, rated at 300hp. And today, a 72 like mine, is going for 40k. 😢
Most beautiful body lines of all cars. I had a 68 Tempest Custom with a 400 Judge engine and a 68 LeMans convertible with the factory 350 BB w/AC. Wish I had them back.
Good taste!
Sinister ride. Defiantly a Villains car.
Forsure! Thanks.
All Pontiacs are gorgeous.
🙌
Had 68 Lemans red/black vinyl top black interior 350 3speed factory floor shift !!! Great car till a Buddy on a beer run ,was racing a 68 Camaro he went to pass the Camaro & the kid in the Camaro decided to turn left !!! So into a brick wall they both went !!! Bought a 70 GTO 400 4spd white with red interior another friend was out cruising my GTO and did a burnout in front of a cop , decided to run missed a curve got traction & shot straight into somebodies house !!! After that I bought a 65 chevy pickup 327 4spd !!! After that I've never loaned out another vehicle!!!
That black Lemans is sweet, if it was a manual transmission it'd be perfect !!!
Hahah! Great stories man! Keep the shiny side up going forward okay? 😬
The Paint!!!!

This is my car......in my dreams at night.
It does have a cinematic vibe to it that’s for sure!

Which mobile phone you shoot this , good clear
Thats actually an old Iphone! 11! Cant believe its made it alive this far. But upload in 4k, and shoot in 4k mix down in 265.
Had one when i was 19. Now 58, want to get one, but around $15,000? A liitle steep😭
If not now then when? :P
No interior pics, unless we listen to the drive chain, who would know if is a manual transmission or not ? Other then that the car looks great. ---- had one similar to that in 1971 ... my was manual 3 spd factory floor shift....with dual exhaust as well.

But you are right it’s an auto!
Nice! Post a video and share.
Piękny!

Love it
How much ?
Wally this one sold. But if you follow the channel, when the cars are listed on my website (www.vintagecarconnections.com) the prices are listed as well..
You can also snatch them before I invest more money if you like to work on them yourself. That’s why I show people what I pick up along the way.. ✌️
car like that you dont have to drive it fast
Can I have one???
Yes, but you will have to do what we’ve all done. Get your hands dirty.😝
Absolutely bad Lemans 💪
demonstration..is ...bad...really
