79 TA 4SPEED 1 of 1530
« on: March 23, 2013, 10:53:22 AM »
paint and body is 5 years old.  and I drive it. so it has rock chips (NO dings)

over 5k in the engine /trans  (STOCK) with a cam & headers

won tons of awards over the last 5 years.  and it has two 2nd place and last year 1st place in the F4 class at the Dayton TA Nationals.

needs a dash, its a cap that is starting to come up in the sun on the top side.   all the rest of the interior is show room.


by the way the 1 in 1530 tells you its a  79 301 4 speed t-top trans am .  it has a 400cid in it now.  I have the PHS to go with it.

I'll only talk price Face to Face , here at my house .   but to keep with the forum rules price is more then 15k --- less then 25k   this is one , if you need to ask you cant afford it

also will do some trading for a Harley-Davidson Road Glide Ultra  08 and newer 0nly and unmolested with all the bells and whistles.

Now for the twist.  im going to take it to the NATS in Aug.  so it can set in the winners circle this year.  and if not sold , have a 4sale sign in it , if sold the buyer pays and takes owner of it on , end of day sunday the 25th
unles I get an offer I cant pass on.

it also has correct restored wheels,  and has LED tail lights.

newest pic I have , from a show last fall,  and yes it got some bling at that show too.

Mine has seen about that many  in the 3 to 4 yrs I  have owned mine.
I have 4 young kids that cant fit in the car and my free time is very limited.

If you go I mecum can I join in on watching this ?

As Dan said this car is top notch, should have placed first years ago at Nats, Doug is meticulous in the paint and his car so you will not be disappointed in this car.

So you're keeping the 67?

i am going at least a few days to mecum in may in indy.  let me know if you plan on selling there as i think it is a good idea.  no tire kickers, just have to find a price you can agree to, plus your car will look great under the lights.  last yr. at indy they had over 50 ta's for sale, and it is a great time to go to these events, but you will be tempted to buy something.
