Talking Lamnas guy, meet Lamonds guy.............:D

These guys have to be related, Lamonds guy is from London KY. if you squint real hard the Lamonds looks to have had a faded Husky and Starch stripe too, and they're both red too. A coincidence? You decide............

Greg, I just checked it, it says at the top title "1969 Pontiac Lamonds $3900"

It's spelled correct in the description.

I have inlaws in London, KY and was just there Friday. FYI, years ago - it was the stolen car capital of the midwest. It was where a ton of them ended up, for whatever reason(s). More junkyards back then than you could imagine for the population.

The no-title thing is hardly a surprise.

Default One of the most butchered words in all of automotive history.

The Pontiac model is spelled LeMans

Not Lemans or lemans!!!!

And the word is pronounced LaMon.
No s or z pronunciation at the end!!!

The origin goes back to the racing series in Le Mans, France.
