Watch as @BuffsGarage and @IrishOutlawGarage help me put my High School car, a 1972 Pontiac Lemans, back on the road by swapping in a TH400 transmission plucked from the Holey Goat! We install a new carb and see what the 455 Pontiac V8 is made of! Full Video:

Love the content
It's not rust- strategic weight reduction to aid in performance.
I'd rather have a driver than a perfect restoration that never gets driven for fear of damaging it.
❤❤ That’s awesome
Love that car
shockingly good looking. I had a baby-shit-brown 79 Corolla in high school. It made some clanking sounds and then stopped running. Turns out, you need oil in an engine for it to function for more than a few minutes. Who knew?!? Kinda wish I still had it. Wasn't terribly rusty, and believe it or don't, a 79 Corolla is pretty hot.
Shes a beauty..
What color gold is that looks sharp
❤❤❤❤❤
That’s the stuff…
When's the next video??
Man this is awesome I bet u got all the women in high school bet you were popular right job im on the hunt for a 1969 f100 to make a project out of my dream car Whats your dream car ?
Got a lil excited pee'd a lil, thought u dropped the new vid but ths short is definitely quality
I’m in need of a video
It's not rust is weight reduction for the drag pack
Those Buick/Olds/Pontiac 455s must be notorius for that, My 1970 442, with a salvaged Vista Cruiser 455 ate my TH400 back in the day. I was kind of upset, but glad, so I could rebuild it and make it a tire shredder! Basically Heavy Duty everything, RV shift kit fine tuned by my 'local sprint car builder' buddy, a TH350 torque converter, and it would go sideways when I mashed the YeeHaa pedal! Still, I managed to blow that Trans racing a warmed up 1987 Turbo GNX. He beat me 1st from a rolling start, then I stole his lunch money from a dead stop, which I needed to buy another transmission aftewards. I cry myself to sleep at nights now knowing to get another 1970 442 I need Scrooge McDuck monies.
love her ❤️
Wish I had mine..1972 olds cutlass supreme
Yer a solid dude. How many remakes has that car had?
My first car was a chevette. I win!
You should fix the Lemans
Cool car.
Nice ride used to have 69 firebird 400/ 400 combo it was a mean mochine.
Beauty
Yep, you can drive a vehicle with a lot more rust than people realize. Ask how I know…
That is one sweet ride
more proof that things don't have to be perfect to still look good enough and be enjoyable. If it was perfect it would be criminal to drive it!
