Description

Here at Coyote Classics, we like to say that each car has a story. For some, that may be more true than others. This is truly one of those cars, a beautiful 1972 Pontiac LeMans. As previously stated, this one sure does have a story. Featuring only 95,000 miles since new, this '72 LeMans was pulled out of a barn after being stored for most of its life. The owners were shocked to find that the the car only needed a repaint and a tune-up after sitting for so long! Additionally, this Pontiac sports the original paperwork belonging to the original owner, including the window sticker (which shows that it was sold new at Schoon Motor Sales in Luverne, Minnesota for a final price of $4,233.60), owner's manual, emissions information, "Protect-O-Plate", and more! It's definitely not often that you come across a car with a history such as this. By 1972, emissions equipment and detuned engine regulations had started to take a toll on the performance cars of all automakers. However, Pontiac still managed to put out some impressive cars during the waning years of unregulated performance. This 1972 LeMans is a great example of those cars. Powered by a 350 C.I. V8 breathing easy through a 2-barrel carburetor, this Pontiac's 350 still makes more than enough power and it cruises even better. Torque from that 350 connects to the pavement through the use of a smooth-shifting 3-speed automatic transmission, perfect for effortless cruising. Due to the aforementioned 2019 repaint, this '72 LeMans looks absolutely gorgeous in correct 43-code "Springfield Green". Additionally, that black vinyl top compliments the green paint wonderfully as it was buffed to a beautiful shine. Stepping into the interior feels just like stepping back into 1972, as there hasn't been a thing that has been touched. The matching green cloth-and-vinyl bench seats are extremely comfortable, like riding a sofa down the freeway. Rest assured, this incredibly original interior is fitting for such a magnificent cruiser as this LeMans is. Options fitted to this time capsule of a car include power steering, power brakes, factory gauges, an original pushbutton AM radio, a remote left-hand mirror, a tilt steering wheel, air conditioning, and a nice-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides stunningly well on gleaming 17" chrome American Racing wheels over some slick blackwall tires for optimal grip. If you're looking for a car that will give you a feeling as if you're stepping back into the days of the Nixon administration while driving, this just might be the car to walk you down memory lane. This LeMans is looking for a new owner, and it can't wait to stay in your driveway!
