1973 455
TRANS AM This Trans Am has had a complete frame off
restoration on the entire car approximately 10 years ago and has barely been
driven since it was completed. The car just came out of a six year
storage and was gone through to make sure it was road worthy. The gas tank was drained and all fuel
lines flushed prior to starting motor. The oil was changed and the
coolant was replaced along with water pump in the last week. The engine
runs super smooth with that classic Engine and Transmission: This
455 original engine is the correct numbers matching motor that the car was
built with. The motor still all of its original components such as block,
heads, exhaust manifolds, etc. as when new with exception to the intake
which is a 1968 428 HO intake. I have a NOS(new old stock) correct 1973
intake for the car still in the box that will be included in the sale of the
car. It performs exceptionally well and is strong
runner. The carburetor is a new old stock correct 1973 455
Trans Am automatic carb(7043262) that I just purchased new in the GM box($1,000)
and installed recently. Great find getting that carb. The
transmission shifts nice and crisp between gears and the kick down works when
you leave it in drive and press down on the accelerator pedal for passing or
just for the thrill of it. The engine and transmission run and operate
properly with strong performance. Rear Axle, Brake, and
Suspension: The rear axle is the 3.08 that came with the car
because of A/C. The posi-traction works great with no noise and puts the
power down on the pavement. The entire suspension was gone through
and springs, bushings, sway bar links, etc where all replaced. The shocks
are high pressure KYB new on all four corners which give’s still car
exceptional handling. It goes down the road nice and flat, even in the
corners. The brakes are all new with all new rotors, drums, pads and hardware.
It also and it has a nice strong pedal. The brakes work great and
stop the car very quick. Interior: The interior has had new
carpet, door panels, seat covers, headliner and package tray installed when it
was restored years ago. The dash is absolutely beautiful from one corner
to the next. The gauges are nice and clear and all function correctly
with exception to the clock not working. The seat belts and
shoulder belts are all correct and original to the car with the one year only
1973 buckle. It does have the correct original pre-RTS turned metal dash
bezel. Body and Paint: Wow! The
car was painted its original color code 11 Cameo White. The body and
paint are both extremely straight and nice. The car has had new
rear quarter panels installed and the fit is very nice. The margins on
the panels all line up from quarters to trunk and doors to fenders to
hood. The tail panel is perfect with correct alignment to the rear
quarters under the rear bumper. See pics of rear. The doors
have nice well defined lips on them with no filler what so ever.
The paint is a high dollar paint job that I would estimate in today
dollars cost to be equivalent to around $7000 to $9000. The texture is
smooth and well color sanded and buffed. All of the jambs were painted
out and smooth as well with no over spray. The front nose does not
have and cracks and lines up nice to fenders. All decals are new
also and look great. The entire bottom of the car was painted black
at time of restoration and is extremely solid. There is no
undercoating on the bottom side. Nothing to hide! Very nice
car!
Wheels and Tires: I have the original 15” Paperwork: I have the PHS documents
on the car and all of the equipment and codes match this car. The
car has 36500 miles on it now but I cannot guarantee the mileage as
original. There are a few other receipts also that I will include
with car when sold. Terms: I am selling the car “AS IS”
because cars of this age are. I will require a $2,000 deposit
within two days of end of auction and the balance within seven days.
Please have your funds available to purchase. If you need additional time
for balance just call me and I am sure we can work something out on time.
I will be happy to store the car for you until you have made transportation
arrangements. I will help in coordinating the shipping if you need me to
but the cost will be paid by you. Thank you for viewing my auction and feel
free to call me at 248-760-0021 if you have any questions. Bob |

Build your dream garage with this insane prize from Omaze
Wed, Jan 19 2022Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability is subject to change. No donation or payment necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes. See official rules on Omaze. Normally when we write about Omaze sweepstakes, they involve a car that you'd never go out and buy on your own. A six-figure camper van build, a $300,000 Ford Bronco restoration, a Land Rover Defender that's so beautiful it should be in a museum. Today's prize might beat out all of those, because not only could you win a dream car, you'll be entered for a chance to win $100k cash to go along with it. There are a lot of cars you can buy with $100k. You could buy a Land Cruiser Heritage Edition or a Mustang GT500 or 6 Chevy Sparks and start your own racing series. Personally, if I won that kind of dough, assuming I also won this Bentley Bentayga, my favorite of Omaze's current offerings, I'd probably use some of it to buy something quirky, like a Honda Element converted into a pop-top camper, or a restored/upgraded 60 series Land Cruiser. Think that's a terrible way to spend the cash? That's the beauty of it. It is completely up to you. No one can tell you what to do with it. Except maybe your spouse. Here are our favorite vehicle giveaways we’ve found online this week: 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Performance Edition - Enter at Omaze Regardless of what you think about Ford using the name Mustang for an electric crossover, one thing is for certain, the Mustang Mach-E GT is an impressive piece of machinery. Here are some numbers for you: 480 horsepower, 634 lb-ft of torque, 0-60 in 3.5 seconds and 260 miles of range. Price? Well, thatÂ’s really up to you, because if you enter to win this Mach-E GT. it can be as low as $0. Here are the specs of the Mach-E in question, according to Omaze: Maximum Seating: 5 Engine: fully electric motors Drivetrain: eAWD Exterior Color: Rapid Red Metallic  Interior Color: Black Maximum Horsepower: 480 hp Maximum Torque: 634 lb-ft Acceleration: 0-60 in 3.5 seconds Range: 235 miles Approximate Retail Value: $75,500 Cash Alt: $56,625 Special Features: GT Performance Edition; panoramic fixed-glass roof; Ford Co-Pilot360™ Active 2.0 and 360-degree camera; Brembo brakes; RTR Design Package including 20” RTR Aero 5 wheels, Nitto NT555 G2 tires and RTR Speed Block graphics Win a Restored 1969 Pontiac GTO - Enter at Omaze Joel Stocksdale, News Editor: There are an awful lot of ways to build a restomod.
Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.
Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle
Sun, Aug 21 2022The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.
