Beautiful car. Super rare exterior color too. I think it's great that your grandfather was the original owner and passed it down to you.
Absolutely love these not many people would do this good man Scotty
I had convinced myself years ago that I didn't like the cars from the mid '70s on as much as the older ones but the more time goes on, the more I like them. It's a car that I'd love getting picked up and going somewhere in. Congrats on taking such good care of it. You made a great choice to keep it.
Beautiful car! The fact that it belonged to your grandfather makes it all the more special. I hope it says in your family.
Was my first car in 1983. Almost identical. Had the factory rally’s on it in an off white color with red interior. Loved it. Smooth as silk down the road.
Very nice car, Im glad he took good car of it. They just don't make it, like they use to.
Considering this is a malaise era car, it's a good thing they don't come from the factory like this one did. I'd love for cars to return to this look, instead of the sea of boring nowadays.
Johnny Rivera They can't make them like they used to! We don't have that many steelworkers left!
What a beautiful car!
Gorgeous hunk of American-made beauty! Thank you for keeping this prize in your FAMILY!
Thank you for this video Mr.Kilmer! Awesome '75 Pontiac LeMans Sport Coupe! Mad respect to Mike for keeping this beauty running and so CLEAN. My dad had this car, and it tore his heart when he had to sell it, because we were moving to an island where it had dirt roads, no mechanics, and no access to parts. Thanks for sharing!
OMG that's a beauty , my God that's beautiful , please take good care of it please . And thank you for already taking good care of it all these years and not selling it .
Holy Mackerel! This was my first car! I bought it used and drove it through college and my first few years working after that. Mine had louvered side windows in the back and was painted blue by someone before I got it. Seeing this is like meeting up with an old friend. Thanks for posting!
I bought new a 73’ Lemans Gransport. Red metallic with the same red interior. Great car! Thanks for the memories
When made in America still meant something. Love the rear end and that great V8 sound.
Not true we make cars in USA
LOL... yup, made in America like Toyotas and Hondas.
I love the growl of an old school V8 :-)
Not even 1 metric bolt on this baby.
The classics are always the best, love it when they're beautifully maintained and looked after, shame not much classics are treated the same
You’re the man Scotty!!!! I wish I could find a mechanic as honest as you
That is a beautiful car. I was 16 when that car was made. I wish cars still looked like that and had V8 engines. I also think that it is wonderful you used the original sized 15" Cragar S/S wheels and RWL tires. I've seen thousands of beautiful vintage cars totally ruined by some idiot putting 24" wheels on them, with tires that have 1" sidewalls. I had a lot of trouble even finding a set of 225/70-15 BFG T/A Radials for my 1977 Corvette. A number of tire dealers told me they didn't even make them anymore. It is really sad what has happened to cars these days. Keep that car forever. They are getting almost impossible to find in that condition for anywhere near a reasonable price.
This car is solid like a tank. I remember my first accident. I was driving a Dodge Colt 83 and I was hit by a LeMans driving by an old lady. When the police came for the accident report, the Leman was still so "clean" that the police was unable to find the impact point on this car. They finally choose randomly a spot from the front bumper on the Lemans as the impact point.
bibodude my dad had a 65 Catalina and was hit by a mustang in the passenger side back fender. When the cops showed up they saw a mustang with the driver side fender curled up past the door, and hood bent to hell. Catalina had a smug of yellow paint from the mustang.
Great car. I always liked that body style, especially the 73 grand am sd-455.
That car's a beauty. Brings back memories.
76 pontiac lemans was my HS ride back in the late 80's.
Would love to have my 75 sport coupe back! Loved that car!
My first car was a 74 Pontiac lemans sport coupe. I loved it!
When tires/wheels were not made to look like rubber bands.
Amen
I had several friends with this kind of car. One even had a Can Am.... with the shaker hood scoop from the TransAm. Nice full frame cars... but the first year of the smog motors with the first catalytic converter installed at the factory. My sister owned a 1975 Chevy Nova SS with the 350 V8 4bbl carb and dual exhaust. Man... that little car would run!
My friend's brother had the same exact car. That baby was a total beast.
Nice car I had the Buick equivalent of this 1975 Buick Regal. These are harder and harder to find they are rare.
My first car was a 74 le mans. Awesome video. Thanks
Its nice to see a Lemans that someone did not try to turn into a GTO Judge Clone. So clean!
Not a lot of those GM Colonnade body cars from 1973-1977 left now. A very nice tastefully preserved/restored example. Love the old school Cragar wheels! Nice touch!
The owner of this car did a good job giving us info and doing the walkaround
Hats off for putting old school wheels. Respect the classic. Nice car and good job sir.
that car is a beauty
Only 71K more subscribers to a million!!
My folks had a 76 LeMans very similar to this when I was a kid. Same red interior, but we had white with the red pin stripes ext. In 80's my mom thought my dad was nuts when he use to say this car would be collectible one day. He ended up correct.
Very nice! I had a light blue 74 back in the day. Great car. Loved it!
I had a 75 Pontiac LeMans Sport Coupe for my first car. mine was white with the same color interior and stripe with a burgundy Landau roof. I had to have the heads shaved to get the compression up.
Sharp Pontiac, those Crager S/S rims will always be a timeless and great looking design.
Great car papaw had great taste
Thanks for sharing and keeping it in the family 👍
My father had an Aqua blue 1975 Pontiac Grand Prix loaded, in Augusta, Georgia. This HERE is a TRUE and HONEST Southern great car guy, I know his engine supplier well.
That thing is sick! Gorgeous flowing body lines! Very nice.
My brother had this same car. Maroon with white interior with a white landau top. It had the NACA duct hood. Beautiful car. It was the first car I drove.
I had one but a 1974. Looked just like it except mine was tan. Had the 350 engine. Ran great.
I love Pontiac
I absolutely love that car. I want it.
Beautiful classic car good look after. Scotty is good man
Wheels a car truly looks good in!
Not some trashy 24 inches of shame rims I see on classy cars that’s embarrassing!
Carlos C. Thanks for the recommendation. I been thinking about looking for a 72 Nova, gonna put 24" rims on it :)
Master K THAT'S AUTOMOTIVE HERESY!
Get with the times ....
Nameless User yeah and those low profiles will go, “POP” on 24’ rims if they hit a semi deep or semi high bump above 45 mph or higher.
24 inches rims are mazafaka rims.
Scotty, how long are you gonna keep your fans waiting to feature your Celica?
have to build the suspense
Scotty Kilmer will you ever pimp it out a bit?
Don't please!
One mighty fine piece of work !!
You are the best Scotty !! You got a fan in Mexico !!!
Nice classic. Best underhood mod is the air filter. So much area to pull from.
I love your show off Sundays vids!
Love 15" rims with larger tires.
Hate the 20" rims wrapped with a rubber band
With the engine work and the mods it'll move now MUCH better than when grandpa got it new, hope the smog pump is in the dumper. I'd have put the bumpers back on a MACK truck but OK keeping her stock, nice ride.
This car is so nice ! I love it !
That's INCREDIBLE! I've never seen anybody take care of a LeMans. All the ones around my city are rusted out scrap or smashed to hell and/or blown up and scorched beyond repair!
Hey Scotty, you make my day with this beautiful, amazing, remarkable Pontiac Le Mans Coupe supercar!!! Many thanks, indeed!!!
nice sound .Scotty thank you for giving the chance to people with such nice cars to show them to all of as !!
Awesome Sir.. reminds me of my old 1975 🏁 Grand Prix 🏁
I just got a 73 lemas from my grandpops for a couple grand, close to the same color. Nice car buddy
I loved the sound of that bird
Not much into American stuff but this is a beautiful car and quite tastefully done. Fine work!
Beautiful car! And the trailer hitch is a nice touch.
One of my favorites
Nice car, buddy! It also has sentimental value, so that makes it even more special.
Absolutely beautiful!! !!
Beautiful car, great restoration.
That car looks and sounds sweet.
Damn I love the way that sounds!
I own 2 of these cars.. Truly a great automobile. I have over 300k on my '75
I'd like to see this in person again one of these days!
Awesome car , awesome history
Love the trailer hitch
That is one sweet Pontiac .
That's a beauty from the past =))
I had a 73 LeMans when I was in high school in the 80's. I remember it being really fast, but my memory could be colored by the fact that my next car was a 1984 Plymouth Horizon which was incredibly sloooooow
Love the trailer hitch. 😁
Sounds fantastic, great car.
WOW I had a 74 Lemans, only difference was the front grill. Only issue was in Canada it rusted really bad, I drove it 9 years and 150,000 miles and drove it all over North America, replaced a lot of metal and added several cans of bondo to make it. Mine came with a 2 barrel carb and this ridiculous pollution pump. I added double bump heads, nice cam, manifold, holley carb, headers, it drove well, terrible off the line though.
Cant wait to get my 78 nova out of storage to make a show off video. 406ci small block power!
Pontiac was one of those kind of cars you either love it or you hate it personally I didn't like the styling myself The way they put them tail lights in the rear end is just crazy
Love the hitch!
Always nice to go back in time. I was only 3.
Thank you so much for sharing such a great story behind this car!
My mother had a Pontiac like this...I was driving it and rear-ended a Volvo station wagon!!! I was 16 years old, and distracted by a big-butt girl in a black bikini.
That is REALLY COOL!!
*COOL...* how it's been in the family since 1975!
Beautiful car
Scotty locked himself in the garage. I pretty sure there's no backdoor out.
there is!
Scotty Kilmer good
Cool car, takes me back 👍
Very nice and well taken care of
Exactly what my dad had it was s ‘74 Pontiac Lemans sport coupe.
my parents had a 77 lemans, they said it was like trying to steer a pitchfork … it's what Jackie Gleason and deputies drove in Smoky and the Bandit
My grandmother had the Olympic version of this car!!
Beautiful car brother, love from puerto rico
Nothing like the sound of good ol muscle!
Smokeyy Bacon By 1975 the Muscle car world was dead and they continued to be market as a luxury car as the Muscle car world had faded.
Beautiful car!
Wow very nice classic.
Very nice ride and you keep it looking good. One thing, I hate to see a towing hitch on a car this nice.
