1970 Lemans 4-dr sedan w/ M-20 4-spd, 3.23 Safe-T-Track: 1 of less than 10?

They are all driven in the summer and fun to drive. I don't see many 4-drs on the road anymore.

Today lots of performance cars are 4 doors. . I find it odd it hasn’t become more acceptable for the older cars in retrospect with that being the case today .

It was originally an ugly yellow but now an uglier black unfortunately but he plans to put it back.

Technically the air we are breathing WAS around in1969 and has just been siting around so I guess it’s IS NOS air lol 😂 dare I say some of it may even be “factory air” direct from
The Pontiac plant although harder to verify.
Sorry couldn’t resists when. I saw this old post. Was just a funny co concept that could be stretched by a true salesman like Mr Mickey Thompson or a carol shelby type.

Technically every one of my Pontiacs are one of one. So not only do I win this thread.... I win it several times.

I own a 69 T/A with the Dearborn 3spd manual, the only 3spd built in Van Nuys. Not particularly popular back in the day, but it's pretty special to me.

Can't answer this question. There is a breakdown on how many 4-speed T/A's were made, no breakdown on how many were all WS6's.

If we know that all 400 '79 4-speeds were mandatory WS6's,
there's 2,485 non-T-Top 400 WS6 T/A's, and 1,590 301 non-T-Top 301 4-speed T/A's. Not all the 301 ones were WS6 though, and there are some hardtop 1979 Y84's with 4-speeds.

I would say Ken Freeman with his 1 of 2 '63 Super Duty Tempest. The other twelve were LeMans. I'm not sure if he drives it on the street but he races it.
