1980 Pontiac Trans Am Bandit Special Edition Turbo 4.9 Blk/Blk Build Sheet

1980 Trans Am Special Edition
Have you ever seen a black on black Turbo Bandit? If you saw Smokey and the Bandit II, ou did. They are rare, ut you're looking at one right now. This is a REAL from the factory BANDIT SPECIAL EDITION. They are hard to find, nd harder to find restored. This one has original documentation to prove it too. It's not a blue, reen, ed, hite or whatever turned into a black Bandit. It looked like this in April of 1980 when it left the GM factory in Van Nuys California and then was brought to Lubbock Texas to be sold to its first owner. Its been in the Southwest ever since, exas and New Mexico. NO RUST. I bought it from the original owner's nephew 4 years ago. He remembers driving up and down Albuquerque's Route 66 30 years ago as a young boy, etting a lot of attention.
It still gets that attention today, ith its Jet Black, olor sanded paint and gold decals. It rolls on new BFG radials and brand new Turbo wheels, o match what it originally came with per it's build sheet which I have. In addition, have the PHS (Pontiac Historical Society) dealer sheet. Both are testament to the fact that this IS a true Y84, lack on Black, rans Am Special Edition with a 4.9 Turbo Motor, xactly the same car that Burt piloted in SBII. Remember, ts not a fake. Its the real deal. There are other Black Special Editions, ome with 4.9 non-turbo motors, ome with honeycomb wheels, ome with Tan interiors. But the real story is Black on Black, urbo 4.9, urbo Wheels, 84 from the factory Special Edition Trans Am. And then you have to prove it. This one has the paperwork to back up its claim to fame.
This is a car with a pedigree. There weren't many made and even fewer in this condition. Completely new Hobnail cloth seats, lack cut pile carpet, lack perforated headliner, lack package tray, ll replaced with new. Black dash in great condition, old instrument and shifter bezels - engine turned, ot decals. Original AM/FM Delco radio with a power antenna and 4 speakers, n their original places. Restored console and seatbelts, estored interior trim. The power windows and locks work great. The tilt steering wheel looks great. And the original GM cruise control works perfectly.
If you want to leave the beautifully smoke colored T-Tops on, hen turn on the A/C because it will definitely cool you down. But if you want to show off with the T-Tops off, ou can store them in the original GM T-Top bags which come with the car. I had the engine rebuilt along with the TH350 automatic transmission. In addition, had the Turbo itself rebuilt with stronger parts. When the Turbo kicks in, here are lights on the hood that show Turbo boost coming on, nd you can feel it. When Motor Trend magazine reviewed the car back in 1980, hey said it had as much power (due to the Turbo) at 4000 RPM as the famed Pontiac 400 had. I have a '78 with a 400 W72, nd they were right. You can feel yourself being pushed back into your seat when the Turbo says hello.
But this is a head turner, oulevard cruiser, top and look at kind of car. Even parked, t attracts all kinds of attention. People want to take pictures in front of it, ids stare at at, dults smile as it reminds them of going to see Smokey and the Bandit. Take it on the Bandit Run. Park it next to your '77 Bandit Special Edition. It deserves the same attention as the '77 since they were both the stars of their given movies. And you can smile too as it continues to go up in value.
The car is in Albuquerque, M where Interstates 40 and 25 intersect. Easy access for a trailer or car shipper. Also, oute 66 goes right through town. Fly in and drive it home on Route 66.
