Comments
I’m pretty sure there were at least 94 Verdoro Green ’69 LeMans convertibles in Lansing, Michigan alone when I was growing up, and 99% of those had a 350 V8. I also recall some rather elegant stainless trim pieces over the wheel arches that are missing here. And finally I think I’d rather have a ’69 350 as opposed to a ’76. Despite all that nitpicky criticism I love the LeMans. The stance is aggressive, the color is period perfect, and it’s a lot less work than the Goat.
There is a Custom S, but not a LeMans Custom S. That’s like calling my friend’s car a Belvedere Road Runner.
Buy the package……sell the GTO.
Is it just me who finds this ad confusing? He’s selling TWO cars, but only gives details on one. Is the green car’s specifics not worth mentioning?
if you read his ebay listing he describs both cars there.
