77 Door Handle With "Trans Am " Decal
« on: March 20, 2007, 06:56:30 PM »
Hello Everyone I  am looking for a 1977 trans am door hadle. When i baught the car the driver side door handle was broken. Its easy to get a replacement but, the passenger side door handle has a decal on it that says "TRANS AM" The only decal that ive seen says "4 wheen disk brakes" and that is not what im looking for. If anyone had a drivers side dorr hadle that had the trans am decal please let me know!!. or if anyone knows where i can get one that would be great.  THANKS!!!

I may be wrong, but weren't those decals aftermarket?

yes, they were aftermarket, installed either by a dealer somewhere or a previous owner.

Most of them were aftermarket, but my TATA had factory decals that said limited edition.

Yeah, I've seen those too. But these are the ones that say "Trans Am". Pep Boys used to sell some like that. Not sure if they had "Trans Am" but I do remember "Pontiac".

Mu parents had an 81 Phoenix hatchback that I learned to drive in.  I put those PONTIAC door handle emblems on it, thinking it would be cool.  I think they lasted about 6 months then faded so bad that you couldn't read the letters.
