Well, here we are in the Month of October and what better way to kick off the Halloween Month than with the new 2010 Concept Trans Am from Kevin Morgan.  For those of you who haven't heard about this or haven't seen the drawings.... WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ! ? !  It has been in over 7 National and International Magazines not to mention Kevin himself being at the Trans Am Nationals for more than three years now and at this year's 2009 25th Annual Trans Am Nationals was the Official Unveiling of this beautiful Concept Trans Am soon to be in production.  This car has been in the works since 2006 at first as rendering and drawings on the PC, to models, to now the full blown production roaming the streets.




THE CONCEPT TRANS AM COMES TO LIFE...

Like its mythical namesake that rose from the ashes to a new life, the Trans Am of yesteryear has been born again... the Phoenix T/A. If it is true that good things come to those who wait, then we have surely been rewarded for our patience. Trans Am Depot is pleased to announce our partnership with designer Kevin Morgan in turning a three-year dream into reality. We, like many of you, have lusted over Kevin's retro interpretation of the '77 - '78 Trans Am based on the 2010 Camaro platform. We began early last year discussing the idea of how we might work together to bring this vision to life.









Here is a little bit of what is included with this Concept Trans Am (what they are calling the "Phoenix"):
The Phoenix conversion will include:

Exterior

    * 1' - 1.5' Lowering Kit w/sway bar handling upgrade
    * Wheels & Tires
    * Front: 20x9.5x120 CB-66.9 Gold or Silver Machined Face Snowflake Wheels. PIRELLI PZERO 275/45ZR20
    * Rear: 20x11.5x120 CB-66.9 Gold or Silver Machined Face Snowflake Wheels. PIRELLI PZERO 305/35ZR20
    * Hood
    * Shaker Scoop
    * Fender Extractors
    * Exhaust Conversion w/ splitter tips
    * Rear Fascia Clip w/tail lamp lenses and bulbs
    * Rear Spoiler
    * TA Graphic Package

Interior

    * Embroded Head Rest and Console Lid - KM Graphic Punch
    * Turned Aluminum Door Panel
    * Turned Aluminum Dash Inserts
    * Turned Aluminum Instrument Cluster
    * Door Panel Badges
    * T/A SN Badge and Designation

Performance Upgrades: Coming Soon


So my hats off to you Kevin for sticking with this and making your dream into a reality.  You show great dedication to the Trans Am Community and I thank you for that and continuing to keep your dreams alive and making them into reality for all of us to see and aspire to.  You can find out more information about Kevin and the new Concept Trans Am by visiting his website here: http://www.kevinmorgandesigns.com/
