After spending 5 months taking mine from a body and a garage full of boxes..... to a car to the 5mpg bird she is today.... It is sad to see so many parts that I have paid top dollar for in California sitting in a filed rusting...

Where is this...?  Do you think he would sell a set of those 15 x 8 snowflakes.... cheap... ha ha

if i won 6/49 or the powerball lottery i would buy each one of those cars and invite everyone on the forum to quit their jobs and join me in restoring each and everyone of those skeletons. id offer to pay everyone 75,000 for each year they work doin this. we would be kinda like Florida Trans Am except better!

yeah I know that guy that has all that he live about 20 miles from me. But I meet him when he just had about 20 T-A's. And that was like 2005 or so and it looks like he is doing good now. Yeah he has a website. Yeah he dont know it but we are in a battle to see who can get all the trans am's up around atlanta. hehe!

Yeah, I made the video with this in mind.. for all the sweet T/A there are some awaiting thier chance again. Choice of song was to touch those that were once T/A owners and to respark the flame. Sounds as if I might need to start a support group too. LOL

Rare bird. arent alot of these cars yours? the ones just setting around? I thought someone in this post said they were yours.

But Brandon 1 says they belong to a guy in Atlanta.

no these cars are random shots I found on the net and compiled together originally as a screen saver then got the idea of adding a song to it. However there was a few cars in there I had personally investigated for adoption. Then the economy took a turn and I held back. Brandon maybe correct in some of the cars for i did a google search for T/A salvage cars.

Yea, It really make's ya set up and take notice and appreciate what we have. The pic that struck me most was a 5 gal rusty gas can sitting down in the shaker, Out in the middle of nowhere. Bring's a tear to my eye.   Good work on this one Virgil, (rarebird)

With GM now making car's overseas and Toyota building car's & truck's, in the states. and politicians still screaming buy American.
It would be nice if the government would help, If you chose to restore some american muscle. I know it's a pipe dream.  But a lot of these car's would be saved, Instead of rotting.

SHOW SOMEONE A BIRD

RESTORE A TRANS-AM
