I am selling my 1969 Pontiac Beaumont 350 small block with a hurst 4 speed. Black interior with black vinyl top. Corvette yellow paint. 145,000 miles on body. It is not numbers matching. Very good condition and a nice driver. Good show or cruise car. Car was appraised at $21,000 in 2009. Asking $13,000. or reasonable offer.
Love the colour combo. Looks to be a fair price...

that 's avery nice beaumont but the front beaumont spare is wrong .69 beaumont never had that on the front only 68 .Had to point that out. The piece is good
Its not my favorite colour but does show very well. I like the 350 four speed combo and like the mostly stock look of the engine compartment. It does look good with the pontiac ralleys. The only thing I would change would be the yellow ignition wires and the scooby doo floor mats. And I would put one of Rays Beaumont astro flash decals on the air cleaner.
If this was an SD in the condition this appears to be in the photos you would pay easily twice the price being asked. It is a pretty rare and desireable car with the 4 speed as well. I personally like what has been done to the car is terms of appropriate modifications using Pontiac and Beaumont parts not found on a Custom originally. It is a unique car that is very cool, however if you buy it be prepared for those cruise night lawyers who will pick it apart and generally make you feel like $hit. It is a buyer's market so you can most likely negotiate down a bit. I recently got 15% off asking price at a new car dealer on a luxury car so I would think you should be able to get the same. It took me a month to buy the car though.
Oh ya, 68sd's last post shows the original build data on this car, it was green originally with a V8 and black bench seat interior. Some one has done a lot of work on this car and used the approipriate parts to do it.

73SC, thanks for the info . I appreciate it. I questioned 68SD's info because I thought chevelles had the build code 13437 where beaumonts would be 73437 or whatever starting with a "7"?? Do you know where I can find info to decode the VIN and cowl tag on this car after I see it? Thanks, Lee
Thanks for your help guys, I guess so far I'm going to look at this car, that this guy has changed quite a bit from its original state! I guess its value is not what it may be?

Someone has turned this car into a nicely optioned car , and did it all tastefully with correct parts !
If the car is as solid as it looks , it's priced fairly. IMHO !
( put it to you this way ,,, my 68 SD that needs to be restored .....would have a similiar asking price ! )
