1979 Trans Am for sale MN - $12,000

1979 Trans Am Hardtop - $12,000
Location: Rochester, MN

I've owned this car for almost 11 years now.  I've always had the intention of putting time and money into it to make improvements but I honestly never found the time to do the things I wanted to do.  So for the past 10 years I’ve driven it on the occasional Sunday or to a local car show.  Now that I'm married and in the market for a new home it's time to give someone else the opportunity.  Below is a list of things that have been done to it over the past 10 years other than small repairs and maintenance.

List of Repairs:

2016:
New gas tank
2008:
New timing chain
2005:
Rebuilt transmission (Inspected, cleaned and overhauled by a professional shop)
Rebuilt Carburetors

List of issues:
  • The transmission leaks transmission fluid.
  • The car could use some new weatherstripping
  • There are dings and scratches on the driver side door and front fender
  • There are scratches on the driver side rear quarter panel
  • The driver side door hinge sags a little bit.  Door still opens and closes fine
  • There’s a small paint chip on the passenger side rear quarter panel
  • The previous owner had someone replace the stock 2:41 rear differential gears with 3:73 gears.  They work fine but the speedometer is off because of it.
  • The previous owner had also removed the air conditioning system

If you have any questions let me know.  If you would like some more pictures or want to see it send me a PM.

Thanks,
