What is that contraption on the drivers side front of engine? Some kind of California clean-air crap? A/C? or what?
Looks like an air pump for emissions. If for the Denver market they had some of the same issues as Cali..

note the hose routing - WTF attaches the hardline? does it just flap around?

Good question...I certainly don't know.

If he was looking for a 12 second car, why did he put 2:73 gears in?

As for the Donk - How is it even possible to mix in a Maybach interior in the ad for your '72 Grandville?

His "hart" wasn't in it, evidently.

I've seen that one on Ebay before.

For that price he could at least have dragged it out of the shed, washed it and taken some pictures. Must be that one like that sold at a B-J auction recently.

This 1972 Pontiac Lemans SS is a solid car with an 8cld, bucket seats, white Interior and a center console!
I sure would love to make this Classic yours, what can I do to make that happen? If this Classic is the car of your dreams, then the best time to buy it is before someone else does, NOW is the time. The customer who looked at it yesterday and said "I will buy it tomorrow" may buy it today while you are waiting to buy it tomorrow. Do not wait another minute, give me a call right NOW so we can make this beauty yours, RIGHT NOW. You will be GLAD that you did!!! We sell collector cars, mostly father and son restoration projects. We have many many other collector cars of all years, makes and body styles and series from the 1920's all the way up to the late 80's for sale!!!!!
Man, that really takes me back to the 1970s. Sounds just like one of those small town used car lot salesmen with bushy sideburns, a plaid sportscoat and wide tie leaning against a green Pinto with a brown door. 'What's it gonna take for me to put you in this baby today?'
