The 1975 Pontiac LeMans is like the automotive equivalent of bell-bottoms—iconic and a little bit groovy. Thanks to the Pontiac Maximum Mileage System, it’s also a tree-hugger with a heart, sporting a catalytic converter for cleaner emissions. Under the hood, you can opt for a humble 250 cu in inline six or go full disco with a 350 V8. Feeling wild? There’s the 400 cu in engine, because who doesn’t want their car to be as powerful as their hair was big in the ’70s? Special shoutout to Gateway Classic Cars for the retro visuals!

The 1964 Pontiac Grand Prix: where luxury meets power, or as we like to call it, the car that pampers you before thrilling you! With a choice of four V8 engines, including the mighty 428 CID, it’s like having a personal chef who can also run marathons. Starting at 303 hp, you can opt for a little carburetor magic to boost it by 3 hp—because every little bit counts, right? And if shifting gears is your thing, the new Muncie 4-speed is here to replace the old T-10, making your ride smoother than your dad’s dance moves.

Picture this: a muscle car’s rearend is like a DJ, spinning the pinion gear to a groovy 4:1 final drive ratio beat. But don’t let it slip! Enter the limited slip differential (LSD), which ensures both wheels are jiving equally, even on icy dance floors. It’s all about that power to the rear wheels, keeping your ride smooth and your tires out of a spin.
