Hello bidders, /p>
You are bidding on a beautiful 1979 10th anniversary Trans Am; VIN number 2X87K9L167272. I still have the original build sheet and owner’s manual. About 99.5% of this car has been reconditioned or replaced. I have about 1.5 inches of receipts to show the work.
I’ve had the car since 2003 and I never ran or turned on the air conditioner so it may or may not work. The cruise control doesn’t work. The heater works fine with a brand new heater core in it. The original 8-track display is orange not red, don’t know why, nd it no longer holds the preset stations or time. Never the less, t works great with good reception and plays the tapes. The power antenna works as it should. Even the little clock in the dash still works. The interior has been completely redone – seats, arpet, hrome bits, eatbelts, oor panels, eadliner, tc. Exterior paint was also done to the correct color and new decals applied. The t-tops work fine. The automatic transmission checks out fine. The brakes/calipers/pads are new.
The car is not an original purist restoration. I fixed it to drive, ot be trailered. For example, he factory cars had the underside of the engine hood a flat black and the underside of the trunk painted silver. I’ve always thought that looked strange and unfinished, herefore, painted the underside of the hood silver and added the insolation pad. When I replaced the head liner, used the felt material, ot the original perforated vinyl because it gives the car a warmer feeling inside. It has the original rims but instead of refinishing the polished aluminum, had them chrome plated. To me, hrome looks and holds up better than polished aluminum. I also installed a modern radio with CD in place of the map tray. There is an extra toggle switch installed next to the rear window defogger switch that controls which radio is playing. I also installed a true duel exhaust with Flowmasters and a Holley 650 or 750 CFM carburetor. I don’t remember which and my receipt from Mondello Performance Products does not list it.
The original motor had 88,565 miles on it. I rebuilt the engine in 2005 and now it has 90,122 miles on the car. In ten years I’ve driven the car about 1500 miles, r about 150 miles per year. The car has been kept garaged and protected. I am a non-smoker so there are no nasty odors. I have done extensive work on this car, nside and out. Please look over all the photos and ask any questions you may have before bidding.
