Not only a legendary, rare car gets semi revived, but the bond between father & son is unforgettable! I truly hope they decide to restore it and get it back on the road where it truly belongs. Nice to see the 455 roar back to life!! My favorite Pontiac I had so far was my '70 GTO in Cardinal Red with Black interior. I rebuilt the motor in High School Auto Shop class, and had it buttoned up/finished at a speed shop. Drove it for 3 years, and loved every minute! Pontiac Forever.. Gone but not Forgotten!

I am life long Pontiac lover. You found a rare and very desireable "HO" High Output 455?! There is no way this should of been thought of as crusher material. This car was one of the few Heavy Breather Pontiacs that was produced at the tail end of the Muscle Car era! The "HO" had bigger valves in the heads and a longer stroke engine than the standard 400 cube engine. The idea behind it was to try and recapture proformance that was lost from just a few years earlier (peaked in 1970) due to lower compression ratios that helped smog but killed proformance. That HO is a "Holy Grail" rare Pontiac that has incredible potential. Some exhaust work, a big cam, etc. and this car was hard to beat! I love it!

He once borrowed a friend's Corvette (late 1980s model) and NEARLY decided to get one because it was the fastest car he had ever driven at the time. The Vette put out nearly 300 hp, which was a lot back then.

He had factory spec'd the car in order to prepare for the gumball rally, which ended up being canceled due to the gas crisis. Route 80 was still being built out, and he and his buddies would due speed and gas consumption trials on it, before it was completed. There is nothing like getting an automotive history lesson from the people that lived it. Great job Larry. Give us an update if you can, as I am a fellow Queens car guy. Thanks!

Freaking love your work, attention to every detail, and cinematography 🤙🤙 You ever think of adding a collapsible wall between the cars on the left and right of the wash bay to cut down on splatter? Also, I frequently notice you using compressed air to clear your pads, wouldn't that also spread all over? Feel like I remember seeing you using a box fan and filter to cut down on that spread too.

@@joshuamorehead6124 no I’m in Los Angeles California, but I live in an apartment building. So I rely on “waterless washing” or public self car washes. I have a pump sprayer and it makes cleaning a whole car a breeze with only 2 gallons of water surprisingly. But this foam sprayer would be great for lifting the dust easier

I love everything you did to that old Pontiac! So unlike all the crazy exotics you are known for. I love to see the passion you have for all cars not just the crazy exotics are super rare automobiles. Keep up the good work Larry. This was a proper gear head job on an old rust bucket!

Imagine Larry Kosilla detailing a car that was freshly restored by Car SOS. Now that would be something amazing.
@gr1mrea9er823 жыл бұрын
This episode did remind me a lot about Car SOS. Fuzz and Tim don't do restorations. They rescue cars. Literally. They take cherished cars that are in danger of being junked, that have fallen out of care, for various reasons, and bring them back to life, and in doing so give their owners and their viewers a big fat grin. And they often end up saving a bit of automotive history too, as many of the cars are rare.
