    Special Edition

    So I’ve been looking for a S/E for a while. Found a few 77-78 but were complete basket cases for the price. I recently found an 80 TA, and he’s claiming it’s a S/E. from the outside. It’s hard to tell. I have a picture of the cowl, but I can’t figure it out from it. I haven’t seen the...

    Yeah, I decided to pass on it. I’ll keep looking for a better example Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Is This Trans AM Worth It?

    Hey guys, I’ve been looking for the right firebird for a while now. Recently this one has come up for sale locally. It’s a 1970 firebird formula factory 400 and heavy-duty 3 speed. The engine isn’t the factory one but it is 1970 400. The tranny is correct but missing the shifter linkage...

    1981 Trans Am Recaro Pace Car

    https://oldcarmemories.com/1981-pontiac-trans-am-nascar-edition-the-last-trans-am-with-a-pontiac-soul/ Here’s a bit of information on them. Sounds like they are pretty rare, only 2000 made. I’ve seen one go for $34k. I only know of 2 other ones for sale and they are both local to me...

    Is It Worth It?

    The plan is to keep the 400 for now and keep it number matching. I’ll get the heads rebuilt and just make it a nice cruiser for now. The plan is to get the body fixed of rust and repainted in the beautiful blue and get the trans am decals put back on. Phase 2 will be an interior refresh...

    Is It Worth It?

    It’s an original 4 spd and 400. Plus it’s an original Martinique blue car. I’m going down Tuesday to pick It up and bring her home with me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Is It Worth It?

    So after going to look at it this afternoon he’s not willing to move much off the $10500 mark. It needs every panel pretty much replacing minus the roof and hood. To get it back to what it should be would cost me more than I want to spend. He also has a 78 Martinique Blue trans am with a...

    Is It Worth It?

    I have not had a chance yet. He says all it needs is a new battery and it should start and run fine. I was thinking if of offering around $7k CDN if it runs and drives fine and see what happens from there Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Is It Worth It?

    The owner had the VIN sent in I guess to be gone through. It’s what the place that did it came back with. It’s meant to be auto but along the way, someone swapped in a 4-speed standard. The floor pans are in good condition with no holes. It does need quarter panel work though. Sent...

    Is It Worth It?

    Hey guys, I have an opportunity to buy a 1978 trans am special edition with Hurst T-tops from what the ad says. I had one about 20 years ago in high school and have regretted selling it ever since. The cars in rough shape but from what the owner can prove it’s one of 238 made that year with...
