C👀L project! I like the Atre taillights. Back in high school a buddy shoved a 400ci Pontiac in one… never got a proper rear end under it. Fried the one tire pretty good before the rear end gernaded. Passed hands a few times locally, then never heard about it again.
I purchased this car brand new, and modified it with rear Gabriel hijackers air shocks, sixties series tires and rims and seventy series front tires and rims, and a Thrush muffler and tailpipe exhaust. It retained it's four cylinder engine, but was a blast to drive and show off in town. My car was lime green. Sure miss that car for it's simplicity. Two years ago I saw one for sale, a burgundy colored one in the town I live in. It was a hatch back, mine was not. Oh the memories.
My first car was a '76 Hatchback, cream color, auto and AC. Awful build quality and very very unreliable. Brings back memories. Paid $1,750 for it. Five years old with 27,000 miles. This was when little cars sold at a premium.
@@Wrenchingwithray then, you sir, got a great deal. Now the real question. What are you going to do with them? I know there are Vega guys out there who love their cars. I also know that there are rabid Pontiac guys. As aside, my sister had a 1970 Pontiac Tempest… that she wrecked.
@@bryangillihan1345 the yellow is going to get road worthy and new interior, the tan one may get crazy lol. Did you check out the other videos of my turbo Pontiac Lemans?
Nothing like rare Pontiacs! Always like the cars you rarely see.
Same!
It's a jumping spider, they are very cool.
Btw I did not kill him in the blast, I relocated him first
Very excited for this one
I have ideas for the tan one!
Those are so cool!
For sure 😁
4.8L swap will suite this gem well!
Definitely be an aluminum 5.3 5 speed if it goes that route lol

That would be quick little car!
