Admiralty Blue 1973 LeMans Sport Coupe owned by Jeffrey Spathelf from Scranton, Pennsylvania. Jeff tells us more, "My brother knew of this car back around '89 when it was powered by '67 389 Tri-Power. While he was driving an Ascot Silver '76 Sport Coupe he got to know the owner. I picked it up for $1,500. It is now powered by a '67 Catalina 400. It was orginally a 350. I just got a new Holley 670 Street Avenger carb
and an MSD ignition. It really opened it up. Now I can't keep those
big 275's from spinning." CLICK->

Slate Green 1973 LeMans owned by Larry Wright III from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Larry tells us, "I picked it up with 18k original miles and mold all over the interior. The old lady that owned it died and the daughter got it sold it to me for $1,000. Everything is original - truly a granny car; stock 350/turbo350 one wheel wonder. It now has new shocks, rebuilt trans, tires, Rally II rims, dual Flowmaster 40 series exhaust and X-pipe, and MSD ignition. It has had a full body resto and new top. Soon to go in is 71 GTO intake
and 70 Rochester quad carb. In a year or two I've got a 70 Ram Air III block going in, after I built it up to get about 400 rwhp. And a turbo 400." CLICK->

Blue 1973 LeMans GT owned by Ray White from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The car was originally Ascot Silver. It was repainted a shade close to Admiralty Blue in 1989. Ray tells us more, "This LeMans is documented by GM Canada as one of 3,761 built. It was built on March 9, 1973. The car has just over 62,000 original miles. Like most Canadian built Pontiacs it has an orange Chevrolet engine under its hood. In this case, it is a 350 small block badged as a Pontiac Astro-Flash. It has no trouble frying those BF Goodrich's and hitting 115 mph. That is the fastest I've taken it up to so far. I have owned the car since July 2004. It was barn stored in Northern Ontario for eight years prior to that. It idled rough and launched badly when I first drove it but, I
was soon topping 80 mph on the cornfield lined country roads. When the owner handed me a box of small bits and parts and I saw the original dealer emblem that said 'by Rumble - Leaside Ontario', I looked at my 16 year old son and said we have to buy it. You see he goes to Leaside High School and the dealership is only blocks from our home. In fact when I attended Leaside High for our driver training, Rumble supplied the 1974 LeManss we learned to drive on. My Dad even had a '73 Valencia Gold Sport Coupe."
