That GTO is the most exciting build on KZbin at the moment. Stick with it. I feel like you're almost creating your own genre. Keep up the momentum. You'll have a million subs in no time if you stay on the projects. Just make sure you complete them with regular updates.

[@PoleBarnGarage]

Agree that the GTO takes priority, but even a gorilla like me needs a break sometimes!

[@davidsmith687]

Man those chrome and black wheels go perfect with the car. Really sets it off. Wanna see it in the daylight! Who would of thought GN wheels on a Pontiac.

[@Adam-vi1ep]

I agree didn't think it would look right but it does

[@jimbo3214]

The wheels look great. The black in the wheel goes well with the black stripe down the side. Nice car.

[@tomrowe7534]

Pole Barn I’ve always liked the GN wheels but can’t remember seeing them on other cars. I like the look. I use everyday turtle paste wax as a masking material. It works well plus you add a layer of protection, a 2 fer. I like that you worked in some history of your cars. All my cars have a back story and it nice when they are entertwined in your history. Keep up the good work

[@PoleBarnGarage]

Everything has a story to tell if you just take the time. I think we all know that there's more to cars than just being an inanimate object

[@josephpilosky4775]

That was a great video you are just a regular guy doing regular things lol stay safe and healthy and warm PS the LeMans still looks good after all the years👍

[@GTP427cobra]

The wheels look great on the car they match the black stripe that's on the car

[@robk4620]

I still have my first car, a ‘71 Lemans Sport convertible. Bought it when I was 17. That’s the car I’ll never sell. Just did a major refresh on it. Actually in the garage right now working on it watching this video and just had to comment. Really enjoy the show

[@PoleBarnGarage]

Thanks! Have fun with your car

[@brohon8788]

I've seen the car in the background of your videos and wondered what the story was on the car. It looks very nice on video. Thanks for telling the history behind the car.

[@lazlosfj40garage58]

@@PoleBarnGarage Mine had the 350... not the 305 that many would say I had... sadly in the late 90s, it was a rusty hulk but ran just fine.

[@ontheroadwiththejrxfoundat7349]

As a teen in the 80s the most stolen rims were the Black GTA Rims and GN/T-Type/GNX rims (I know I just dated myself) so many Pontiac/Buick guys bought them to put on their Skylarks/Lemans/GT 37s. On my '67 Camaro I had a set of Black GTA rims for my winter tires. That is a good looking car I like the fact you put a shaker on it, its different and looks better.

[@bigugly11]

I am old school so would definitely put the factory 15" Rally wheels with beauty ring on this LeMans with white lettered BFG Radial T/As !

[@hurlmo198]

[@gregkistner1955]

Yep the wheels do look good on that car

[@PoleBarnGarage]

Thanks! Kinda "NASCAR"

[@elijahn.grisham4017]

Thats cool as hell man. My first car was a 1984 Subaru hatchback maroon color manual . It lasted me 4 months bought it of my first weed dealer for 400 bucks. Did the job tho i taught myself to not only drive at 14 but how to drive manual transmission. My Dad drive cabs for a living 12 hours a day so he wasnt really up to teaching us as kids and as long as i didnt bring home the police a license was optional.

[@orange72mc71]

I knew you had some nice rigs tucked away. Nice job 👍

[@royhaught9516]

Really nice upgrade, the black on the rims ties in nicely with the black stripe down the side of the car.

[@jasonahlstrom1424]

Love the SHAKER SCOOP!

[@TheGAutomotiveAndMore]

Your back story on your car sounds like my story of my first car. I am enjoying your GTO video's. Keep them coming.

[@johnweeks5614]

Now I finally got to see the video of your sweet car hopefully you will bring it on more just to give everyone a chance to see it and not wonder about it

[@PoleBarnGarage]

Nobody watched it 🤷

[@markdahl1962]

I have a 70 Le Mans. Like you it's been around since 1986 and I would starve before it would be sold. Mine is not perfect, but I drive it and get a lot of remarks about it. I don't think that there is a nicer cruiser out there. Plenty of room in it. The styling is perfect for this car. I would drive mine anywhere. Hang on to your 72. You can't get any better 😉.

[@PoleBarnGarage]

I'll be buried in it

[@oxyfee6486]

I feel the same way about my 67 Camaro rs,I have had it since I was seventeen,amazing memories.

[@outfitsgarage88]

Great job, those wheels look good.

[@dougaranda6187]

Very nice. I love seeing a Pontiac guy. My Dad had Pontiacs. Had a '55, '58, '62 Catalina, 67 Lemans Sprint, then he bought a Challenger just because he liked them. The '67 Lemans became mine but it was lost in a flood in 1972.

[@PoleBarnGarage]

62 Catalina is a car I've wanted since I was a kid

[@pcbullets8726]

It looks great dude! These old rides like this are awesome. My granddad owned a used car lot, so I got to see many of these. Thanks for sharing the history on this car!

[@gunjiweber42]

Nice fleet of Pontiac power, the gold color with GN wheels is excellent IMHO

[@PoleBarnGarage]

I'm a big fan of torque!

[@BIGchrisJbitch84]

Love this LeMans!! Reminds me of the one my uncle had, it was originally black with white leather seats but unfortunately he had it painted a metallic blue. I was young and always thought it was a judge car before I knew much about cars lol. Seeing yours brings back so many memories of that car, he had quite a bit of work done on it and I vividly remember him taking me for a ride and going over 100mph for the first time. Good ole uncle Mike or uncle meanie as I called em.

[@mikeoliver8083]

That is a great looking car. It brings back memories of my 1971 Lemans Sport. It was a 350 with a 2 barrel, my older brother helped me paint it. Wish I could find another one to restore/play with!

[@PoleBarnGarage]

There's a good deal on a 70 tempest in Missouri for 1500

My sister used to have a 71. Now that the Buick grand national are becoming more popular again I would say those wheels where worth more than you paid for them ! Ryan Martin from NPK and Street Outlaws recently bought one ! Shawn bought a Regal with GN drive train .

[@looneyluke797]

That shot around the 16 min mark when you were backing up looked really good. And the drive about shot is looking good!

[@dogismyco-pirate]

[@GT.Bugger]

That light would definitely be useful on the dark evenings, the amount of times I've had to cut working on the car short due to poor lighting is a lot.

[@richardmensinger1799]

My first car was a 1963 Dodge 440 with a slant 6. It was my HS car. It got too rusty to pass Pennsylvania car inspection. I stripped all useable parts off it. With today's aftermarket parts...that car could have been saved. 😢 Most of those parts now reside on my current 1963 Dodge Polara 500 that I bought in 1991. I have owned a 1963 Dodge of some type since I was 16.

[@PoleBarnGarage]

I can relate entirely. 70-72 Pontiacs for me, and it's not even really a conscious thing

[@brandaneakright6082]

Great video your 72 lemans is really cool and it’s cool that you’ve kept it all these years. I’ve got a 68 Chrysler newyorker that I’ve had since I was 12, and out of all the muscle cars and other vehicles throughout the years it’s the one I won’t part with no matter what.

[@RattyFlyer]

Them rims do look pretty good on there.

[@KiwiStag74]

That beast is one of the sexiest cars I have ever seen, mate. I saw it in the background of your latest video (bringing home the FE 352 for JD's 59 Ford) and had to go trawling through the back catalogue to figure out where I'd seen it and make a comment on it this time. Great story with it too - I've never seen a 72 Le Mans up close (we didn't get them new in New Zealand, so it's only when someone imports American steel that we get to see them) and I must say that it's one of the most beautiful cars I think I have ever seen. That gold really pops too - really does a number on the car by bringing out her lines....and those wheels just ice that cake, man. I'd own that beast in a heartbeat. Absolutely gorgeous - and sounds as awesome as it looks. You've done Pontiac proud with that beast, mate.

[@PoleBarnGarage]

That cars as much a part of me as anything is. Appreciate it!

[@robertironside3166]

Yes the Le-Goat treatment. Do a GTO treatment then call it a La-Goat. Ever see any 68-69's around your area? They are my fave years for the Goats but I like them all [as I'm sure you do]. The suiss cheese Goat would be a winner at those burn out contests at the different shows like Hot Rod Power tour and so on. Do a few of those than do a series on stitch welding on some new metal on that goat for the sake of the channel [be fun to watch after you do the burn out thing for a season] lol

[@michaelcuff5780]

My bro inlaw had a 1968 GTO . 400 with a rockcrusher 4 speed. The first time I got on it the front wheels came off the ground and it scared the crap outta me. Because it started to head for the right hand curb. I turned the wheel to compensate and nothing happened. Till I let off a little and she straightened right out. Lol!

[@gimmefuel7268]

Love your LeMans man. Sweet ride. 👍🏻👍🏻 Love the story that goes along with it as well. That’s how I feel about my ‘84 Chevy K20. I only bought it last year but it’s never going anywhere. That truck is now stuck with me. 🙂👍🏻👍🏻

Vaseline works great for ribbing on consoles. I also used just plain motor oil and wiped it with my finger on the chrome I didn't want painted. Glad you switched out those 17 inchers for the grand national wheels. When it came to out runnin the law, you only had to worry if the man was driving a Poncho. Have you seen those vids of Big Chief outlaw street racer? I love the shaker hood on your car. I always wanted to do that to a firebird formula hood....best of both worlds.

[@armandopatane5343]

[@blackforestvintagefords7872]

Thanks for the vid! Your Le Mans have the same color as my 73 Mach 1 I build at the moment, great color combo. The new wheels fit right there, looking awesome.
