Pontiac Le Mans 1965 Description
This pampered 3 owner 1965 Pontiac LeMans has spent it's entire life in the same SouthernCalifornia neighborhood. Purchased new at Martin Pontiac in Lancaster, Ca. in Dec 1965 as a
Christmas gift. It remains rust free in the High Desert 60 miles North of L.A. All work on
car was done Locally in Lancaster, Ca. The original owner lived on 35th St West in
Lancaster, the car moved to 25th St West in 1982 and to 32nd St West in 2012. I have all
reg and receipts going back to 1982. It has the original black Ca license plates. I spent
way too much restoring the car. It was a labor of love as it is the same model and color I
had in high school in 1972. Numbers matching 2 dr hardtop car w/ bucket seats & console
