Amazing@@jasonsobol32
79 Bonneville 4 door...15 yrs old when I bought it from an old guy for 350$....ran like a beast!
Thank you.
The difference in the Pontiac 400 engine was signified by the TA-6.6 on the shaker on the engine, and the Oldsmobile Powered 403 was just called 6.6 liter on the shaker scoop.
Thanks for your information. Hope you continue to watch my videos.
116mph top speed! Lol😂 a little underrated. 🤔
I find myself asking the costs as advertised in the description.
The amount of incorrect information in this is staggering.
But, the pics and videos are cool.
The Can-Am was always my favorite. I always wanted one of those.
Great point!
I just had wished my 82 trans am with stick had been a better quality. It was a gorgeous car esp with the t tops.
Do you still have your car?
@@qmusclecars No. darn it. It had continual manual transmission issues, the 305 suffered from soft cams shafts, differential issues, etc. I loved that car. It was the elegant Trans-Am.
great. You are a wonderful audience on my channel.@@kevinfestner6126
correction Pontiac never had a big block or a small block, the Pontiac V8 is identical from the 326-455 the only difference is the bore, stroke, and main baring size. the 326-400 was 3 inches in diameter and the 421,428, and 455 were all 3.25 inch. no such thing as a big block Pontiac. even the heads all interchange
Great. Do you like that car?
Mid block
301 is a smaller block than the other v8's.
I would love to have a 1967 Executive with a 455!? That would be rare indeed since the 455 did not debut until 1970.😉
Hope you soon achieve your wish.
Yeah he got it wrong it was a 389 and a 428 not a 455
Thank you.@@ronaldmacaluso107
Definitely miss Pontiac
Great bro.
loved the Judge
Great
We will overlook some of the errors in this video, but I must say I dislike the computer generated voice that is being used in a lot of these videos. The cars speak for themselves. Glad I had a couple of them
I'm sorry for that. I hope you continue to watch my videos.
I have a 1963 bonneville. It is a beautiful car, found it after it sat since 1979. Working on bringing this baby back on the road.
Great. I look forward to that day.
The Pontiac trans am was a decently fast car in the later 1970's and came with two options of the 400,, the Pontiac 400, which was an actual Pontiac engine, and the Olds 403 which was a respectable power house at the same time, but I think that the Pontiac was a little stronger.
I owned a completely stock 73 Formula 455 Firebird (with the functional RA package) is the mid 1980s. I rebuilt the 455 engine back to stock b/c the entire car was already stock and had zero aftermarket parts. Cars back then were easy to work on and anyone with some mediocre mechanical knowledge could easily fix or hot rod their car as all cars were still pure mechanical works of art!
Do you still have your car?
@@qmusclecars Sold it in the early 1990s to finish university. Very sweet ride and easy to fix and upgrade with aftermarket parts. The Formula 455 didn't have insane horsepower but enough torque and HP for great light to light street racing back then. When I bought the Formula 455 there was also a 383 Cuda for the same price. That early 70s Cuda had the slats on the front grill and the twin hood scoops (no shaker).
I was going to put early 400 7K3 heads on the 455 which would bump up the compression ratio to about 9:1 but just kept the Formula stock because it was really nice stock (since it already had a new Sikkens midnight blue paint job when I bought the car). Car looked NASTY as heck! Would have look even sweeter with those classic 5 star Cragar SS 15 X 8 all around..... but the original 5 spoke wheels with the fat trim rings were OK as well...
Thank you.@@happycat0411
@@happycat0411I would love to see a picture of it. And the Cuda too!
The Grand Prix came out in 1962....
Why is an LS swap being featured? And what big block was installed in 1969? To bad a Pontiac fan didn't create this video.
Thank you for watching my video. Have a good day.
A mans drived me nuts
Thank you. Which car do you like the most?
I had a 77 T/A back in the 90’s, paid $600 for it. One of the most uncomfortable cars I ever had but it was cool.
Thank you. Which car do you like the most?
Outstanding lineup. It’s missing the Holden-Based GTO though, from the early 2000’s, and maybe even more
Remarkably, the 2004/5 Bonneville GXP with the Cadillac Northstar V8. I believe total of only 6,600 were built.
Thanks for your information. Hope you continue to watch my videos.
P! Pontiac fan for sure. My father had a 65 Tempest with the 326. Bought new and I was brought home in it when I was born.
Yes, you must be a muscle car enthusiast.
I had a 79 firebird Formula 400 with the 403cu v8 wish I'd never let it go. Best car i owned
How wonderful. You have had interesting experiences with vintage muscle cars.
No.1,P, love the video, but I will admit that I find it most disappointing that the Pontiac brand is not around anymore,yet if you want my opinion though, I believe that GM should have kept the brand and make more cars to really amp up the competitive market of car making and let the people decide what they want to buy and then decide to whether or not to keep it down the line,yet those muscle cars themselves are still hardcore in their own right, good to go with this video, epic respect for those cars in more ways than one.
Thank you. But classic car brands have always been my favorite.
All American car companies have been ruined. The ones that are left are putting out disgusting SUVs and crossovers that I hate with a passion. And then you have the illegitimate government forcing electric pieces of 💩.
Thank you@@ericbitzer5247
The Banshee looks like a corvette-opel love child
yes, great.
My first car as a 16 year old punk was a 71 Grand Prix model J. 400 under the hood. The previous owner had taken the vinyl roof off and given the whole car an ice blue metallic paint job. Looked like the Batmobile. Was a boat to drive but it looked sick af and man I loved it.
Great. Do you still own that car?
@@qmusclecars naw that was in the early 90s. I have one pic of it in my driveway as a reminder.
Great@@LockedInWithLovebirds
I had a 1970 GTO Judge Ram Air 4 and it was an incredible car. Thank you for a Super upload ❤❤❤. Best wishes to the uploader,family,friends and fellow viewers.
Thank you too
@@qmusclecars My pleasure, have a super week.
Thank you very much@@SunShine-dk6rk
Me too! Loved it!
thank you@@tomrinehart3022
The Apollo was the Skylark replacement, but still a decent looking car with respectable power considering its its weight ratio to horsepower.
P. I have a 2002 Trans Am Firehawk and a 2007 GXP (front wheel drive), the predecessor to the G8.
Thank you. Which car do you like the most?
1 Amazing Car
Thank you for watching my video. Have a good day.
I actually got excited when I heard that pontiac firebird did one hundred and thirteen miles per hour that was flying back then .
Surely you are a speed enthusiast, right?
GTO has always been my favorite.
Yeah.
You totally can find them affordably.
yes@@toddaulner5393
Just let you know, 73 GP model J 400 engine was standard, 455 optional. SJ 455 standard. NO 350 offered in the GP until 75. The 67 EXECUTIVE 400 standard, 428 optional. NO 455 in any Pontiac until 1970. You left out 73-74 Super Duty T.A.. and EXTREMELY rare 73 74 Firebird S.D. FORMULA
I'm glad you watched the video. I'm also very happy that you gave your sincere feedback on my video.
The 350 was first offered in the GP in 76. In 75 the 400 4bbl was the base engine. A no cost optional 400 2bbl was offered along with the extra cost option 455. In 76 the 350 became the base engine with the 400 and 455 as options. This was done to lower the cost of the GP which had previously been one of the most expensive cars in the General Motors lineup.
I had a '86 Trans Am. I enjoyed driving it. Chick magnet for sure. Sold it in '92 to buy my first house.
Do you still have your car?
What about the 1970 buick g.s.455?
Thank you for your information. I will learn about this car. Are you ready to watch it?
I remember seeing a 70 Gto few years back at a local car show and talking to the owner :) his had a 455 with tri power...told me it would smoke the tires long as u held it down
Thanks for your information. Hope you continue to watch my videos.
73 trans Am SD !!!!!
Thank you. Hope you continue to watch my videos.
One of my 1st cars back in 1980 was a '67 Firebird with the rare 326 4bbl that I got for $1200! I got into Pontiacs the summer of '76 when Smokey & the Bandit was filmed around my hometown area in Georgia & I got to see some of the filming, I actually lived 2 miles from Snowman's house in Jonesboro at the time! My last Trans Am was a '98 LS1 6sp!
Yes, you must be a muscle car enthusiast.
@@qmusclecars Yes, always have been & have had a few here & there over the decades!

Thank you. Hope you continue to watch my videos.
Great lineup I'm surprised the 2002-2005 GTO didn't make an appearance....that was also an incredible and probably the rarest Pontiac muscle car of the modern era
Thank you for your information. I will learn about this car. Are you ready to watch it?
My buddy had a 05 Gto...great sleeper
Does he still have that car?@@josephnewcomb5670
@qmusclecars nope his wife wanted a 4x4 Truck so it got traded in
Unfortunately.@@josephnewcomb5670

The way you say LeMans is a no go
That's right. This was a silly mistake where I didn't control my narrator. I asked him to pay more attention to his work. Thank you very much.
@@qmusclecars good deal 👍
Thank you@@AFR383

in 1967 , Pontiac did NOT have the 455. the Executive had a 400 and. 428 as an option.

I currently own a Grand Prix. 😊
Thank you for watching my video. Have a good day.
Am I the only one who caught him saying the Chevrolet 454 sedan?
Thank you.
No, i noticed that too, as well miss pronouncing Le Mans, the video clip of the GTO with a LS Swap... as well I thought there was a cost Now versus then
I'm sorry for that.@@chrisgobeil4751

Pretty sure that '02 TA was not a WS6. Didn’t have the Ram Air hood or rear WS6 badge that would have come with the car.

So you'll list the one of a kind concept car Banshee yet you won't list the Firebird I, II or III and you leave out one of the most beautiful late model Pontiac's the Pontiac Solstice, For Shame I suggest you revisit the editing of this video. 🤨
I'm sorry for that. I hope you continue to watch my videos.
Pretty Sure the Bandit car was a 76 model with a 77 clip from what I've saw in Videos about the car..
How about a 1973 gto with a 455 with functional ram air
You are a wonderful audience on my channel.
I had a Pontiac muscle car until some one set it on fire
Great
God, I hate AI generated audio.
Well, thank you for watching my video.

If he says GROND prix one more time I'm unsubscribing lol
thank you@@gsxerwhite
This A.I. shit has gotten out of control
Can you say clearer? I do not understand you.
I realize the Le "mans" was a pretty forgettable model when placed along side the more ICONIC Firebird and GTO models but in a video devoted to Pontiac cars alone......you'd think the name of the base model version of the GTO could be pronounced correctly.
Thank you. Do you own any of them?
The GTO was built of the Tempest platform not LeMans. GM did away with Pontiac engines in 1981 that is the last year of a true Pontiac. 2002 Firebird is a Camaro only difference is the trim that's not a real Pontiac it has the heart of a Chevy unfortunately .
Thank you. Which car do you like the most?
My favorite would be the factory Tempest race cars of the early 60s@@qmusclecars
yes, great@@frankwolfrum6301
Pontiac actually wanted to continue to develop the Turbo T/A 301 in the third gen Firebird, but GM forced them to use a V8 from another division for the 3rd gen, and obviously it made sense to just go with the Chevy small block. It’s a shame, because if Pontiac had been allowed to continue to develop the Turbo 301 V8 it likely would’ve ended up outshining the Grand National/GNX, which is the very car that they ended up borrowing the engine from (with heavy modifications, they had to use the heads from the FWD version of the 3.8 V6, for example) for the 1989 Turbo T/A.
Thank you. Hope you continue to watch my videos.@@phantom0456
Honestly, I don't consider any car under 250 HP as a muscle car. No matter how it looks. Most of these cars are just family cars with sporty features.
Thank you. Do you own any of them?
You gotta look at when the cars were made. Early C4 Corvettes, Iroc-Z, and 3rd-4th gen Mustangs all had less than 250 HP but were top muscle cars in their era.
Even though the HP was down in a lot of the mid 70s cars, they still had plenty of torque. A simple deletion of the horribly restrictive pellet type catalytic converter and adding true dual exhaust and headers netted about 50HP gain in the malaise era.
thanks@@mikee2923
wonder how many 1967 executives where ordered with a 4 speed ? and also the 73 4speed grand am 2/4drs are rare cars today
Thank you for your question. I can't get the exact answer.
@@qmusclecars not sure if any one knows how many ordered a full size Pontiac with a 428 and a 4speed 4door post or 4 door hardtop
Yes.@@youtubecarspottersguide1
Isn't it pronounced La Mons? Not La Mans. It's named after the race no?
I'm sorry. I will change that in the next video.
It's pronounced "Le-mons", not "Le-mans"
Thank you for watching my video. Have a good day.
GM had there up there ass when they canceled Pontiac
Do you feel sorry?
No "Swiss Cheese" 63 Catalina? 🤔🤔🤔
Which car do you think is the most expensive?
77 T/A rare ? t-tops made it look cooler than it was ? What the what ! I hate mis-informing wrong info & mis-representation of most of cars videos like this
Thank you very much. I really need criticism to make me better every day. I will study the script more carefully for the next videos.

Thank you.
I'm having trouble buying into any of your top speed claims. Most seem rather low.
Thank you. I looked up information in a reputable car magazine.
You gotta remember most of these cars had either a 3 speed automatic or at best a 4 speed manual, neither of which had an overdrive.
Lamahhhns not la mans. Is the way you say it.

THE PONTIAC IN MY OPINION IS BETTER THAN LOOKING THEN THE CAMARO BUT I WOULD NOT KICK ETHER ONE OUT OF MY BED 🤪
Do you own a muscle car?

Thank you very much for your comments. I will ask the editing department to reconsider this issue.
damn wrong engine in the sliver converitble its not Pontiac.My Grandfather had a Grandville two door hard top plush seats.black top.maroon.
Thank you for watching my video. Have a good day.
A 77 trans Am is definitely not a rare car. Another clickbait video
Many people think it is very rare.
Yes, Mr. Nader.
I can't believe you didn't have any of the Grand Prix's from the 1969-1972 years, shameful
Oh, that's a good suggestion.
AI can't speak english
In this video, I am hiring a Canadian narrator. Why do you think it's an AI voice? I want to know so I can ask him to edit.
The title of most muscle cars, and yet you show 4 cars that have less than 220 hp. And it's not LeMans, it's pronounced LeMons. Another car video narrated by a person who is NOT a car guy.
Thank you. I will research more closely for the next videos.
@qmusclecars you say that, but still put out videos misprouncing car titles and information. Do the proper research or don't do anyone videos.!
do a shot of Jagermeister every time the robot says, "MUSCLE CAR." Where are they getting this top speed data? Way WAY off. Suck it, Artificial Intelligence!
Very poor listing of Pontiac power
why so?
Does the person who made this know what the definition of a muscle car is? A number of these boats are NOT muscle cars. They weigh so damn much that you could never have fun with these wallowing pigs!
Can you give me some advice to have more interesting videos?

stop calling "Pony Cars" muscle cars....
yes, thank you.
It's pronounced LeMONS not lemans - Don't put a video out there if you don't know how to pronounce the models ! SMH
I'm sorry for that. I hope you continue to watch my videos.
Is it me, or are most of the new videos like this read by a.i.? If you’re too cheap to pay someone to narrate a 15 minute video, why would anyone value your content? It makes everything in the video seemed cheapened, & also comes off as an insult to your target audience. I swear I get tired of complaining about stuff, but every day I’m watching things deteriorating right in front of me. Quit being greedy!! Pay a human!
Thank you. I will change my narrator. I promise you that.
For crying out loud already I keep saying this Firebirds are not muscle cars they are pony cars big difference muscle cars are the full size cars that were packed with a punch anybody can make a small car go fast
Thank you. I'm really sorry if I made you sad.
The actual definition of a muscle car was a mid size car with the engine from a full size car.
automatic sucks. I don't care how you build it, once you put a auto transmission in it becomes instant junk.
Thank you. Which car do you like the most?
Well I can tell you one thing General Custer would have been in this interview if he would have had an automatic his not having one really Sucked and I love the Tin Indian in fact they made Swiss Cheese out of him 😁😁🤔
