i remember when you pulled her out of the barn, so glad to see her back on the channel and being worked on, she's a beauty, a true survivor
Can’t believe how much those new wheels and tires changed the whole look of the car! They are perfect!! Nice find, really enjoyed the video. 👍🏼👍🏼
I was wondering when you were going to clear the windshield, so you can see where your going, disconnecting the fuel line to the tank is usually one of the 1st steps in getting a will it start car going. The Mortske points flick helped, the pontiac turned out to be a decent looking car. Good luck in finishing it up.
Yes, the quilt on the windshield was bothering me the whole time. It didn’t bother either one of them. It just goes to show you some people don’t see that is being disgusting but these guys do an excellent job of getting old cars running. They’re a great team.

I love watching how you two get along so good as father and son working together. I lost my dad this year on his birthday. I wished we worked that well together.
So sorry for your loss. Thank you so much for watching. We appreciate you!
I agree. My dad and I working together was like fire and water, not good. LOL. I like this car, a keeper at least worth taking it to it's limits and best it can be. I know, many want to change out the distributor but I ask why. Nothing wrong with points and condenser as was original and from what I can tell by just the video that distributor looks in very good shape. Just have to change them points and condenser each year or so. A good set of points and condenser run about $50 bucks these days. Used to be able to walk in any store back then and get a set for around $5-7 bucks. Change them out about anywhere, even without a feeler gauge and be able to get home. I used to keep a new set in the trunk just in case.
@@ckstaff You are lucky, at leas to get to work with your dad on something. My dad was so busy that he just comes home in time for dinner then goes to his room. I never asked him to help me with my homework or anything that is upsetting. Same with my mom. Eventhough that was the case, I love them both dearly and miss them so much. I was very young when they passed away.
One of my favourite times of the week when everyone is still in bed on a Saturday morning, I make a nice coffee and watch the latest Restored/Turnin Rust. Great job guys.
Those old muscle cars had the best stance and this beauty is no exception! Nice job guys!
She definitely deserves some rust repairs can't wait to see more on her ❤

I’ve been watching you for so long I remember this one. I love this car. I bet if you did a little more work, it would be a very reliable car. Buff it out and spit shine it. I love this channel ❤️
first vid that drew me in was that blue trans-am that was sitting for 10 years or something, great content
MY SON MAX 8 YR.S OLD SAYS PART 2,, YES!!!
As a Pontiac owner myself, I glad that this lemans got rescued! Would love to see an underside transformation a nice exhaust system! Defiantly gonna stay tuned!!
I love how upgrading the wheels immediately brings out the potential in this car.
Why didn't you wash it before you started working on it
Hi Guys! I just found your site. This Dad and son duo is amazing. You guys really work well together. Today is my 71st Birthday. My late dad bought me a brand new 1968 LeMans. Same 350, black over gold. We shared it till I graduated in 70. Then it was all mine. I dressed it up with Keystone mags. Thanks for the memories as Dad died in 1978. Great Guy!!!! Keep it goin' I love you guys!
I had forgotten how good the Pontiac LeMans looked. Job well done guys 🏁
😮 1:07:12 😂❤😊
Beautiful stuff man.I can say theres no one better to have done this job.The care you guys take in bringin one back is top notch.Well thought out,planned,and executed.
Rghyttyyyuuuuhjjjjjkhj
This car is very dear to my heart ; when i was born my Dad had a 1972 Lemans Sport with a 400 c.i. in Anaconda Gold color and that is the best looking car he had in all the ones he had after that until his passing in 2009. If i ever win the lottery, THAT is the 1st thing on my wish list, to buy one and build an exact replica of my Dad's to enjoy for the rest of my life. In the meantime i'm the proud owner of my own classic Pontiac ; a 1968 Beaumont (Canadian Chevelle) that i've owned for 13 years and i'm at my 3rd one, all 1968 but all different engines. Love your channel and hope you guys will still be around for a long time !
Bring them to life… put a 455 ram air in the Pontiac! I have a 1970 SJ Grand Prix… it had a 455 Ram Air… FAST
WAW so great to see that old US motor brought back to life. Fantastic wheels and what a beautiful car in great color and design. Thanks!
The first car I ever owned was a 1980 Trans Am. I've always had a soft spot for Pontiacs and Dodge's. And I love that you gave the seller an opportunity to get involved in the video and the reclamation. He must have loved that. God bless you.
Of all car restoration channels, I think, while the restoration was certainly impressive, what was more impressive were your manners and compassion towards the family. Many restoration channels like to snap up and hose down cars as a quick flip for views. You guys are amongst the good ones, what a great team and a great job. 👍🏼
This is not a car...this is a piece of art❤
They were still built by hand, back then.
Bloody good job with the Pontiac guys my hat's off to you both.👍👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great follow-up to the first content! It's kind of a stretch to call it a "Muscle Car," but with a four barrel carburetor with CAI, new intake manifold, HEI, headers, & dual exhaust, it's close. Keep on keeping on with this Le Mans!
Yes, a 326 will never be a muscle car engine., just a good running engine for daily driving.
Why all that? It was never intended as a muscle car. Lemans-GTO, Malibu-Chevelle SS, etc. Restore it as close to what it was and it would be a cool car as is, a Lemans. If it were mine, I would even keep the distributor with the points and a new original exhaust system. No need for headers. Change carb to 4 barrel is fine but IMO keeping this car as close to original is best and a daily driver at that.
I don't see how you could not keep this one. 🇺🇸
Awesome car. Congrats on being able to save it and bring it back to life. 🚙🚙🚙
GREAT VIDEO GUYS !! YOUR BOTH ARE SAVERS,, AMEN.. OF CARS I AM NOT SURE IF I HAVE SEEN THIS VIDEO BEFORE I REMEMBER THE ROUND BACK WINDOWS,, YOU DONT SEE THESE IN A PONTIAC''S THAT OFTEN . THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Thank you guys for reviving history again and thank you for your respect for these cars of great value
I like how you kept it simple and straight to the point. You got some classy guys and have a classy ship with great character and full of honesty. I respect a whole lot. Let's see more projects & keep up the great work
That is a really cherry LeMans. I hope you will keep us in the loop with whatever else you do. And By the Way, the editing has really become upscale! Nice work.
You guys found a gem. And then you went and put those rims on it and made it look even better.😊
What a beautiful car, love the lines. Looks sweet with those wheel's 😮. Very nice 👍🏻
Good job guys beautiful car almost ready for the road stay bless BRO
I have watched I dont know how many restoration channels, but this is my first time on Turnin Rust. And let me tell you, it wont be my last! Greetings from Sweden!
That old car is a survivor...I think it needs a trunk pan, and a holley sniper, show it some love...Great video, great find, can't wait to see where you take this build.
Bravo, Team Turnin Rust! Another great vid. I watched a Restored vid this morning. Part 2 of the unibody camper soon to be diesel machine! Keep up the great work!
I bet you were glad to get that windshield clean. I'm surprised it wasn't the first thing you did before working on it. Great car and video. Please do another on this one.
Man I felt that intro.
Seems like that one really was running till grandma parked it. Great find!
Your channel is the best! All looks so professional! You'll deserve so many more followers! Love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Strong work fellas……😊Part two please! 😁
Those old muscle cars had the best stance and this beauty is no exception
Momma always said, if you can’t find a Gto get a Lemans!! Great video
Man! That's a gorgeous looking car! Great job guys!👍👍👍👍
Nice car. ❤ Really great shape too. Ya don't see too many of those cars around. Really nice car.
Good video -- beautiful Pontiac -- hard to believe they left such a nice car parked for so long. Btw -- maybe you could go back and get the Dodge pickup that pulled out of the way -- on the outside it sure looked to be in good shape!!
I had one just like this Lemans except it was painted yellow with a black vinal top. No air-conditioning because of it coming from the east coast. They kept it in really good condition. Thanks for showing this video. It sure brought back good memories when I had one back in the early 80s
This was a fantastic episode! Great job! I graduated high School in 1972, that was a really good year! I always loved these cars!
Just wanted to say, I love the content and effort y'all put into the videos. Great job! Thanks again. BTW, I was a nervous wreck while you boys were inside that barn.
very nice car going to be great project 😅I like thanbodystyle
}:)}:)
Never seen a port hole window like that. Was that a rare option?? Sweet car. You stole that!
Another great video. I love the old Pontiacs. I am a bit partial since I own a 69 Firebird that I’ve been slowly fixing up the last 5-6 years. I almost took offense to Lance’s comment about only changing the spark plugs and it running so good…. It’s a Pontiacs of course it’ll work… lol… thank you for what you do putting classics back on the road and taking us along for the ride!!
Melhor programa caseiro que já apareceu nós últimos tempos. parabéns.
Love it! Beautiful car and could be a daily driver with few key repairs.
Nice! Y’all got her going! Been a while since y’all picked her up!
Thank you for restoring a piece of Detroit art. Cars were amazing in that era ❤❤❤
I WOULD PAY YOU 12K FOR THIS JEWEL!!!! After all repairs and a new welded trunk. I would give you that no looking back! If you see some Brazilian commenting here, that is because there are also many muscle cars in Brazil, and many Brazilian people recovering these beauties, just like you guys. They are complimenting and greeting you guys for the incredible work, which I also agree with. Greetings from a Portuguese living in Taiwan.
Those wheels really make the car look great, and I hope that you make more videos on its restoration. I just wished you had grabbed that Dodge pickup at the same time.
Loved the Pontiac revival can’t wait for the next one
that old girl looking good and you guys got her back on the road nice one
Nice find! Definitely worth fixing.
Cleanin space in the barn should be worth a couple hundred lol
تحياتي اميركيا 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👉
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, do a follow-up on this old Pontiac. What a cool car. Thanks so much for sharing your journey. Take Care!!!
Good to see Turning Rust up again 👍 Nice little piece of Detroit iron there, nice find guys 🗿 Thanks for sharing
Love those Lemans. My brother in Houston has one he's completely rebuilt. Ya'll really didn't have to work too hard on this one. Nice job ya'll
Now go back and get that truck
And make it real quick.
I said the same thing.
@@thomassmith9260😮o
The Dodge was in great shape, had no rust
Yesss...., hurry !!
You guys struck gold here. This is a awesome barn find.
My neighbor had one exactly like it! He welded those B pillar portholes shut, removed the vinyl top, painted it raspberry red metal flake, added an LS and 18 inch mag wheels! Then sold it for 18500!
Great to see the big fella pitch in, they worked well together. Fine days.
What a treat. Such an iconic body style. That Dodge pickup was in pretty nice shape too.
I bought a new 1970 Lemans Sport, 400 four barrel carb. Wish I still had it. My car was a little darker green. Good job on bringing the Lemans back to life.
You have done a great job, so far, and it's great that you brought it back to life.
Super video and what a lovely Pontiac...well done. Very good filming Christian👍 Cheers from the UK.
That was a fantastic performance of a well synchronised dual Texas Chainsaw Massacre starting up moment , very well executed … ✌️😎👍💜 You Guys do some amazing transformations with some cars others would simply scrap or turn their back on, and forget about them forever… Keep up the good work guys…
Those wheels made a world of a difference. As always great job guys!!
I agree on thoes small rounds windows . Not a fan at all so if I was going to have to do roof rust repair thoes windows would get plated in. Great find for an old school muscle car. Glad owner's found ur channel because she'll get saved
I found Turning Rust! The Pontiac Lemans thumbnail caught my attention. A good friend’s mom had one and we rode around in it as teenagers. I watched the video and was captivated. I don’t know very much about cars. This one brought back memories. I like Lance and Wyatt. After the video I found your video about being tied up for a while, Restored (will subscribe there too!). I learned of your faith in our Father and praised Him as I saw your story. God Bless you.
Great find guys what a beautiful car, I think it would be nice for those to old ladies to have one last spin down the road just for old time sake, well done look forward to seeing you finish this one off
Someone was looking down on this old gal. She is going to make a beautiful ride.
Nice find and even better rescue!!! Both my finds were barn finds....69 442 and 85 Grand National.....you have to take care of them as they were forgotten by someone else!!! Great Job.....I put the same rims on my 442!
Here comes the Pontiac savior.......! Can't wait to watch the rest.....!
Great video and a very nice car. I have seen those "opera" style windows before. Pretty rare.
she sure did turn out class. For a classic. Good job guys.
真的好佩服這些熱心的專業人士，願喜樂平安！
that ole 1st gen dodge needs to be revived that thing is beyond clean i really hope somone buys her and shows her some well deserved love.
Turned out beautiful. I’m in love with it. Them weeks really set it off and the body lines are gorgeous!!❤❤
What a good find guys. we love them old GM a-body cars. .
Beautiful looking Lemans great video thank you both once again for cool video 👍👍💪
Great survivor project nice work guys and greetings from sth Australia 🇦🇺 👍
Great car and video. Thanks for sharing and God bless
Pontiac fan here! Thanks for bringing her back!!
The old Pontiac is looking awesome guys great job as always. Waiting on another video of this green beauty. Awesome job on the videoing of all the work going on great gal on the camera 👍👍.
I've wanted this car since the first time I saw you release a video on it.
I drove a LeMans to high school back in 97'. Had a stroker motor in it. Got 6 miles to the gallon. Man i love those bodylines. Mine didnt have those port windows though.
I hope this one gets restored
I've always liked all your videos you and your father has done over the years and collected all the vehicles and everything else that you've collected over the years of going out in swampy areas to cut down trees where the cars are buried in between trees I believe it's your sister was recording the videos as you and your dad or trying to salvage vehicles out between trees you guys go I just love watching you and your father go rescue vehicles and stuff and restore them 💞🙏😇💯👍✋🤙😎🏁
I like when you pause from the work to bring everyone up to speed on the progress
Thank you for YOUR APPRECIATION to the subscribers Lance!!!
amazing transformation keepup the good work man.I ENJOYED much watching you 2 guys.
Had me a 1969 Lemans a few years ago. Absolutely loved that car..
Wow Guys that ole Pontiac really cleaned up nice I can't wait to see it when you get it all done. Beautiful car🤠🤠🤠
This one's for sure a worthwhile effort to bring it into the 2024's with modern steering, brakes, etc. A four barrel is all the engine needs,, those little 305's have more than enough power to go light to light, city and hi-way cruizing will be fine.
Your shop air compressor sounds like it's about to throw a rod! Y'all do good work!!👍🏼😎
like your other channel, love your restorations man, keep it up. amazing how smooth she ran without doing any work on the carburator. regards from germany 👍🏼
