Well the time has come to part with my 1980 Trans Am, this car is sweet and my baby the last 6 years, I'm the second owner. The original owner worked for Motorola and this was his leased company car that he purchased at the end of the lease. That matters little since the 301 was removed for a 77 400 with 6X heads, very strong motor, it was dyno tuned at Chucks Speed Center and was pushing a little over 330 HP. Tranny is a Turbo 400 with a shift kit in it will bark the tires shifting in second gear. It is an automatic.
So why am I selling? Well, I bought a 2007 Mustang GT this past Thursday with everything on it and I have no room in the garage for my wifes BMW.
I have roughly 15k into this Trans Am and its basically a new car, has a few little things I had planned on doing like changing the gears from 3.08 to 3.73 and it has T-Tops so I would probably put in sub-frame connectors for more stability overall. I didn't do it because I didn't want to rip all the new interior out, I didn't think the interior was going to need to be removed to do this. The dash could also use a cap or if you have better access than I did a new dash, it has a crack or 2 but its still very presentable and has a dash mat that covers the spot shown. I was hoping one day to find a dash on ebay or to send it to justdashes but didn't want the car torn apart for 3-4 months and obviously the cost was a factor as well.
The TA has brand new paint, I haven't had it color sanded yet because I wanted the paint to get cured, paints about 6 months old, and frankly it doesnt really need it, but to get an absolute brilliant shine color sanding would set this car off. Its decal delete because I didn't want to add decals until I had it color sanded.
Thought Id offer here first before putting it on Ebay. I would prefer for ebay not to make a dime on my car!

$9500.00 FIRM this is a steal, no rust ever on this car, even heater core never caused any floorboard issues period. This car has been a California and Arizona car its entire life.
Paint is White Pearl with Dark Blue interior all redone from Year One.
All new weatherstripping as well.
More photos upon a called request.
Car comes with many extras. So if you buy it youll need a way to get a console, rear METAL louvers in perfect condition another steering wheel home, the wheel in it currently is almost perfect I paid 450.00 for it 2 years ago. Will included about 5 books regarding Trans Am history, many extras.
Every thing has been replaced or redone, all suspension, tranny, engine, brakes, Koni shocks, EVERYTHING! New windshield EVERYTHING!! 2.5 inch exhaust with Flowmasters. If you want a TA and want it for cruising and enjoying this is the car for you. Should be ZERO disappointments, if you drive it you'll buy it. Also added the WS6 Close ratio steering box, car handles excellent. Window trim front and rear have been professionally restored and look brand new with no pitting, they are perfect.
This car has been my obsession since I bought it and you will know that when you see it, its really a beautiful TA. This really is the truth of my loss your gain. Its making me sick right now thinking it wont be in the garage someday. However the new Mustang is also sweet and if you haven't driven one I highly recommend taking one for a test drive the Mustang GT hauls a**! I'm serious it frigging is an awesome car for the money, with a few minor mods this is a serious muscle car with a factory warranty.
