2nd Gen Trans Am$ at Barrett Jackson

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Luvchevs</div><div class="ubbcode-body">When I see a 1978 Corvette pace car with the L82 engine still in the wrapper go for $50,000 at the same auction it makes me question the TA prices even more. The Corvette is from same era and had a lot of hype ever since it was built. </div></div>

1978 Corvettes were a lot more money than the 1978 Trans Am and Z28.
So, &quot;everyone&quot; had a Trans Am or a Z28, but very few people had a Corvette.
That is what makes the Trans Am's and Z28's more valuable today as that was the car everyone dreamed about.

I was just finished school and starting to work at that time.
I looked at ordering a new '79 Z28.
Then, this '72 Z28 came up for sale, Mulsane Blue, with blue interior and an M22.
the rest is history. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
