1969 Pontiac Lemans Convertible
The name came from the French city of Le Mans, the site of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the world's oldest active sports car endurance race that began in 1923. Originally a trim upgrade package based on the Tempest, the LeMans became a separate model in 1963. 1969 was part of the third generation, introduced in 1968 and produced through 1972. Of the 104,000 Tempest/Lemans produced in 1969, just 5,676 were convertibles.
For consignment, a 1969 Pontiac Lemans convertible showing 124,414 miles, but the true miles are unknown. This car appears in the color it left the Baltimore plant with and also the engine it drove off in, the numbers matching 350ci V8. Owned by our consignor for 26 years, this pampered Pontiac has been garaged and maintained as a show car.
Exterior
Warwick Blue is presented in two stage form, gleaming and fronted by Pontiac's distinctive nose, seen across the line in '69, lined with robust chrome which becomes part of the bumper that frames the grille; that grille bends to accompany the protruding beak begetting a hood bulge that bisects twin nostrils up top. The handsome profile includes a gently undulating but mostly straight shoulder line, topped by a new white canvas top and finished by a sweeping decklid, arrowhead side markers, and long overhang. 14-inch Pontiac Rally II wheels are on board with G70-14 tires that have a late 2021 date code. A simple design is now fully classic in back with some substantial dual exhaust tips and a flawless chrome bumper. Imperfections include some chips, inclusions, cracking paint, bubbling on the deck filler panel, base of door and at rocker trim, rock spray on the rocker trim and rear panels.
Interior
Also retaining its original interior and color, Parchment vinyl is artfully arranged on the door panel with trim lines that create geometric patterns around the hardware and model plate. Similar things happen on the front bucket seats with the use of stitch pattern under a broad headrest, all in very nice condition along with the rear bench with seatbelts for three and ashtrays for the end occupants. The cockpit begins with a simple but elegant steering wheel, brown textured plastic and three spokes, leading to a triple gauge instrument cluster up front that includes the speedometer and a clock. Woodgrain applique covers the lower dash where the AM/FM radio is housed and the center continues the warm woodgrain trim, home to the shifter and it all is in great shape. Black loop carpet is on the floor and the trunk is clean, dressed by a fitted vinyl mat.
Drivetrain
Looking original and clean is indeed the numbers matching 350ci L30 V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor and 265 horsepower. It's mated to a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission routing power to the 10 bolt rear axle. Power brakes, power steering, and air conditioning are on board.
Undercarriage
Generally clean driver quality is found underneath where we note one, well done floor patch. The dual exhaust runs through stock style but different mufflers on its way to the chrome tipped exit while power drum brakes are supplied to all four wheels. Suspension includes coil springs front and rear with a 4 link in back.
Drive-Ability
The factory engine comes to life without a hiccup and sets us on our way, providing good power on the test loop, straight tracking, nice handling, and an all around pleasant experience in this time capsule of a car. We note the heater blower is not working and there's some shudder when we put her in reverse. Beyond that, all functions operate as they should on this blue beauty. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
Because they were marketed more as commuters than performance cars, LeMans have flown under the radar especially given the small number that survived daily use. This is a fine example of Pontiac's pedestrian offering, here with nostrils behind the chrome bumper and showy dual exhaust sandwiching a lovely exterior spec.
