Some pictures of my 73 LeMans! (that i putted for sale to afford a 1968 Lemans) Even if i am not fan of the green interior i think its pretty beautifull

This is looking really good!

I finnally took it to the mechanic because i couldn't fix it by my own.. had to take carte of my baby. so i had a leak and i lost two gallons of coolant... that was all the liquid when i stoped and started leaking but now its fixed, i drove it home and happy. now that i fixed all the biggest issues i am thinking on selling it so i can buy a 1968 Lemans.

Hi! so yesterday i stopped after driving the 73 LeMans 350 and when i turned of the engine a lot of pressure and vapor went from the hood i opened and it was coming out from the overflow with a strange noise ( i suppose because the pressure). Smelly water was coming out from down the dashboard in the passenger side but i had that always. I drove it today morning a little bit but it was ok and now that i made i longer driving i stopped again and had that some seconds... (the heads are new, the water pump to, ,the alternator too and i chekced oil three days ago and it was ok ( well i poured accidentally a little bit more) the Anyone knows what is happening? Thank you

replacing Air cleaner
Kim Francis replied to Kim Francis's topic in Pontiac General Discussion/Questions
so i should go for a different starter than the stock one? -
Yeah It is a different look totally and this custom job is pretty well designed ( i mean it is well integrated with the curves as you said). i always thought that the 73 needed a retouch in design for this front that doesnt really matches with the back and side silouette
-
I can't find nothing like that, it may be a customized modification what do you think?

Kim Francis replied to Kim Francis's topic in Pontiac General Discussion/Questions
yeah i saw some poorly putted wirings... it may be that, but i started again today after 2 days and it wouldn't start so i think the starter is fried. i think i am going to clean out this cable stuff and put new ones in the correct place -

replacing Air cleaner
Kim Francis replied to Kim Francis's topic in Pontiac General Discussion/Questions
Ok so i changed the aircleaner.. i putted the hose that was going to the valve cover connected to the exit of the aircleaner and after trying it i can say it is much better.. i can hear a breathe and the car responds better. i made a carbtiming change too. now it is good but i had to tow the car because after parking it wouldn't start ( had this problem before) and a smoke went from the hood, i think a cbale burned a bit and it's not making contact or i burned the starter.. -
