1976 Trans Am 455 4 spd

We just purchased this car partially restored.

I need the bracket going across the bottom of the dash that connects both sides and braces the dash.

I need the small bracket that holds the hood latch rod to the radiator support.

It has headers, and the clutch return spring is wrapped around a header tube, and not working.

I am still trying to figure that one out.

The hood latch rod is reproduced, and it costs 40.00.

I guess I have to bite the bullet on that one.

Did find a hood latch on eBay.

I'm trying to find some wiring diagrams since the wipers, the oil pressure, and blower motor are not working, and wires are hanging everywhere.

Any help would be very appreciated, especially with that dash bracket.

Frank’s Pontiac Parts is a good source for original 2nd gen parts.

He has acres out in the desert just full of salvaged parts.

I have all the manuals/documentation for 76, so let me know what you need.

I got the blower motor working. All3 speeds. Got the wipers working, but does not have the washer. Wrong wiper motor for a TA. Got the dash cluster working and the voltmeter and gas gauges seem to work. put in led light bulbs. New hi-beam switch fixed the flaky headlights. Still need to hammer the header pipe hitting the clutch rod.

Sounds like a lot of progress.

Those little things can be the biggest pain to get working, find replacement parts, etc.
