1971 Pontiac Lemans...350 motor, automatic, I think a 2 barrel carb. Honest people here with 100% feedback on well over 400 transactions. Won't take too much to get this one up and running because although it has been parked at our house what seems like forever, a few years back my sons tinkered with it and fired it up and drove it around the neighborhood for a while. We are not car collectors, classic car finders or have anything to do with working on cars. Following is a history of what we know about the car in case you are interested. In 1994we were renting a house we owned out to an older couple that was in San Bernardino, Ca. One month they were short on money for rent and said they were going to sell this 71 Lemans anyway and would I take it instead of rent. I did not need the car, or want it, but did have a 69 GTO in my youth and although this was no GTO, I liked the Pontiac front end look and I took it anyway just to have a third car around for my wife and I. So I registered it and we drove it occasionally while our other cars were in the shop, etc. Over the next few years when our kids hit Junior high and thought it was a cool car, I added a paint job, used 15 inch tires and rims, and had a shop put station wagon springs in it to jack up the back a bit. That's it. Figured as my kids got older one of them would want this car, but that never happened and I have held it long enough, as now the same kids are into their 30's and the car has just been sitting. The car came to me running fine with I think around 97k miles. It now has 103 k. So that's about how much I drove it in 23 years, mainly years ago taking the kids to school, store, etc. I have never taken it on long trips, etc. and as I said, when I parked it, it ran fine, just got tired of insuring a 3rd car and kids have all moved out. About the car now.....If you are interested...factor in this....I am easy to deal with and if you want to see the car prior to a bid, just call me and come by and check it out. 951-two zero two-73eighttwo... I have nothing to hide, want whoever gets it to be happy. It IS NOT important to me to just sell this car, somebody needs to want it and be happy with their purchase. Whether you drive it, clean it, fix it up and resell, I don't care, but I just need to know that you knew the truth going into the deal. It sat outside under a tree so there are tree dropping spots on the top, hood, trunk. The sides don't look too bad, but paint was done, probably mid 90's. 3 tires still hold air, 1 doesn't. I fill it up when I want to move it around our rv parking area. We push it, not start it up. Battery went years ago. The rear bumper is rusty, the front end still looks way cool. Interior, no headliner, 1 major hole in driver seat, need rubber lining around windows, but for the most part there and actually not looking that bad, as I have seen some older cars that are just totally torn back. The trunk keyhole is gone, so I just pop a screwdriver in the whole to open the trunk. There is what appears to be the original bumper jack, that I have used, and I think 3 of the original hubcaps are in the trunk. We try to post a lot of pics, but I know I won't describe everything and you may not see it in the pics, so please email me with ???'s and feel free to call for that matter. Like I said few years ago when I told my sons I was going to get it out of here, they came over, messed a bit with it, fired it up and ran it around here, then parked it and went on with their lives, which is cool, but we are tired of looking at it and not going to save it for our grandkids that may want it in like 10 more years or more. It has a perfectly clean title and is and has been on legal California non-operation status. Because it is a 1971 it does not need smog . The last year that I had it registered and was driving it around was 2003. It has air conditioning and AM radio, I do not remember if either of those were working so lets go with not working. I seem to remember power steering, no door locks or power seats.I'm sure Im forgetting plenty so please email or ask. Thank you and bid with confidence. You can always keep it on non-op until you are ready to drive. That doesn't cost me anything every year. This car is for sale locally, so this auction is subject to end at any time, HOWEVER, if there is any bid in on the car we would of course not end the auction or sell it locally, but it would go to the Ebay high bidder.If you are high bidder for this LeMans, you are responsible for removing it from our property, within 7 days of auction close, hopefully sooner. We will work with you, but please don't bid on this and then leave it here. We want it out. It is parked on concrete in our sideyard and we have 12 foot gates so getting to it is pretty easy. I cannot help with loading, pushing or anything. PLEASE only bid if you have the finances to complete this auction. Paypal is fine or cash on pickup will work too after the initial $200 deposit...any questions email me or call...Thanks for looking!!!
