1977 Pontiac LeMans Sport Coupe in Ohio
Hey all,
I am sure that some of you may have already heard my story, but here it goes again....
I am a very proud owner of what I would say is a 70% original paint 1977 Pontiac LeMans Sport Coupe. I purchased it back in 1988 with funds that I received from my totaled 1977 Pontiac Grand Prix. At the time, my father and brother both had 1973 GTO's and this was the closest thing that I could find at the time and the price and everything was right.
I drove it for the biggest part of 2 years, minus winter months. It then went into storage for the biggest part of 20+ years. After being able to keep it through a marriage and divorce, starting over and everything else that goes on in life, I finally got it back out back in and around 2011. It remained about the same car up until this past January when I decided to finally replace the well running Oldsmobile engine that the car came with. I opted for a Kauffman built 461 to get a Pontiac down in and under the hood. It was a long road, but thanks to many folks along the way over on FB Groups, the car made it out with its transformation after about 10 months.
I look forward to sharing information and I am sure my share of asking questions on the forum...
Regards from Ohio....
Thad

I have gone a little different route from what you see here. Not doing anything with the body, because I am enamored of the Survivor dings, scratches and scuffs...

Welcome aboard Chad! I've really taken a liking to these Pontiacs over the past couple of years, even though I've been a Chevy guy most of my life. Love to see more pics of your ride!
