1970 Lemans "Jury" - Canadian Dealer Graphics Package

[L78M22Rag]

Having been born and raised in Calgary, Alberta, I've heard of a Pontiac Lemans "Jury" that was supposedly a local dealer package.... but never seen one until last night. This 1970 Pontiac Lemans Jury is being offered on Facebook Marketplace in Qualicum Beach, British Columbia, Canada for $72,000 CDN (which is currently around $50,000 US). It has only 55,000 miles (with one repaint about 25 years ago) and is still owned by the son of the original owner. He has the build sheet and original bill of sale.

Stampede Pontiac apparently ordered a string of 26 1970 Pontiac Lemans Post Sedans in Cortez Silver with a Blue bench seat interiors, and dressed them up with black stripes, rear spoiler and a "Jury" decal. Given the notoriety of the Judge, on the GTO platform, I should have expected that the Lemans based Jury might not compare. Turns out, the Jury was simply a low cost alternative to the Judge that offered a 255 HP 350 2-BBL motor, single exhaust, etc.

I kinda wish I still had my own version of the Jury in my head that would give the GTO Judge a run for the money.
