1978 Trans Am - Recent Frame-On Restoration - P.H.S. Documented - #'s Matching


Brief History:

This T/A was originally delivered to Washington state and was purchased by me with just about 96000 miles on it and from the 2nd owner. He really wanted to restore it but with a 2nd child on the way he needed the finances more than the car.
The car was in quite good condition with the typical faded paint and "driven in" interior. It was virtually rust free except a very small spot in the right front fender which was repaired correctly with a Goodmark piece.
I prefer to restore cars that have been on the road as opposed to being stuffed in a garage for 5 years as the drive-train gets some attention as opposed to rusting away and this T/A was being driven 2-3 times a week by the owner to his part-time job.

It then went through a 4 month frame-on restoration in Phoenix.  Below are the highlights:


•Original numbers matching Pontiac 400 V-8 (z-code car)
•Original Rochester Quadra-jet 4bbl Carburetor
•Original numbers matching Automatic Transmission
•Power Steering
•Tilt Steering Wheel
•Cruise Control
•Rear Window Defrost
•Power Front Disc Brakes
•New factory correct Mayan Red paint
•New Pontiac “Special Edition” gold graphics
•New Pontiac 15” x 8” OEM snowflake wheels, center caps & lugnuts
•Original black vinyl interior with upgraded driver’s seat cushion
•Aftermarket AM/FM/CD stereo system
•Detailed engine bay
•Detailed undercarriage
•Flowmaster muffler
•New factory style stainless steel "Pypes" 409 exhaust tips
•New 245 x 60R15 Uniroyal Tires
•Rear air shocks
•New battery
•Recent tune-up and fluid changes


Asking $19,500 (fairly firm on that price)

Contact Mark at 480-575-0248 for more details or just reply to the post.

Car is located in Cave Creek Arizona, which is just north of metro Phoenix.
