Re: Trans-AM for wife
 

Thanks for all the great info. Lots to look at.
Richard, if you were closer I would have a look, not sure
my wife would drive a 4 speed, But I would!
Seattle is a place I can get to easily from Calgary though!
Wish they had Super Chevy there still. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif

Richard, not busting your chops or anything but I believe you missed the year on your car. It has the '77 or '78 front and rear bumpers. A 4 speed would be a blast in one of those.

yea my old black car had all the paperwork and was a exstremely nice original car!, or the red car Nickey has looks really good to, I would swing at either of those two if I wanted a nice T/A today. nice original cars are getting harder to find, to many seem to have the quicky car lot resto to them. good luck searching, https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

I tried to attch a old pic of the black car but have a new pc and cant figure out how to use my new pic software yet,DOH!

I am looking for a Trans-Am in the 1970-1980 range that
would suitable for a wife to drive that does not like to drive oiur "big cars". Any thoughts from this very prestigous group. We would only drive a few days of year and I am not looking for a show car, only a driver.
Suggestions? Best year/options/price range 10-15K.

Here's a neat one: a 1975 455HO 4 speed, here in Jersey:

Looks like a decent, rare car with a load of paperwork. Neat color too: blue with red and white interior.

Re: Trans-AM for wife
 

Boy this looks like a potential winner. Lotsa pics, great colors, no leaky T-tops.

Plus, I think there's a few board members nearby to take a looky-see.....not near Canada, however.

Re: Trans-AM for wife
 

I bet in person that car is not that nice. Lotsa peel in the paint,Dyed panels inside and undercoated trunk floor would keep me looking. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: Trans-AM for wife
 

Perhaps a little new, but has a lot of merit:

'85 TransAm, Ruby Red, Low Mile, One Owner!

We all want it. A clean, carefully driven, garage kept, high performance automobile complete with owner history and documentation. This 1985 Pontiac Trans Am was purchased new by the current owner and treated just that way. 36,265 immaculate miles, this excellent example of the 3rd Generation Trans Am is stone stock, and aside from regular maintenance items, like tires, the battery, and the like, she is also completely original.

Only the slightest scuffs in the door sills and front chin spoiler tell you she has been driven at all. 36,265 original miles. http://www.showyourauto.com/am/listings/l0188.html
