Thinking About Selling '80 Grand Lemans

[Mat1227]

The picture is as Grandamman said from a Pontiac brochure, I have seen this interior in my 78 Grand LeMans same as your colors, just not 2 toned, dark blue only that I bought new in 78, unless you have bucket seats in a Grand LeMans, this is the interior. Now if your's was a Lemans, not a Grand LeMans, the interior would be correct. But the car looks like a Grand LeMans to me. I'm not trying to cut down your car at all, I really liked these cars, have had 2 - 78 Grand Lemans myself. And now that I think about the 2nd one I had, it had white vinyl interior and it was more like your interior than the pictured interior I posted. The one I bought new looked like my picture. I will have to look for pictures of the 2nd one I had with vinyl interior.

The seat patterns vary between years. I'm sure the interior is correct for this car. This was a two owner, very original car. I'm the third owner. The second owner had it from '82 until I bought it about two years ago. I have two '80 Grand Lemans' and both have the identical interior, except for color. The other is maroon.

I'd love to see someone take this car and give it a Pontiac heart! I just need to focus on finishing up my other project.

Took the car for about a 25 mile drive today. It drives nice down the freeway at about 70 MPH. Completed the drive without issue. That's the most I've driven it in one outing since I've owned it. I just haven't driven it enough to feel comfortable taking it on a longer distance drive yet. So far so good.

Car is sold. First person that looked at it bought it. As I thought, the kids are not happy. I guess they need to be toughened up a bit...

Troy,
That was a nice Lemans. Someone got a good score...especially that you threw in the buckets and console. It's hard finding them in that condition.
