Hello

I am selling my 1974 Trans Am 400, M20 four speed, 3.42 Safety T Track Posi with only 77000 miles on it. It is a beautiful example that has had only two owners. Both of which loved the car and treated it as such. The original owner had it up until 2003. He purchased it out of John Rudd Pontiac in New York, paying only 4498.00 for it. At some point the car went under full restoration (I believe in early 2000). He kept the bill of sale, window sticker, build sheets, and PHS documentation to say the least. It is one of the best documented cars that I have. The car was then purchased from the second owner. Right after he bought the car, he sent it to be judged Nationally in Hagerstown MD in 2004. There it won its National Juniors award as a high point car (I have all docs including tag, registry, etc).

Not long after, he got the itch to go faster, and out came the 400, and in went a SD455. The 400 was stored in a heated garage with all its accessories still on it. The rear of the car (though not rusted), underwent major heavy duty frame rail work to handle the modified 455. The rails are completely correct and original looking, however the grade of steel (thickness etc. is heavier duty than stock). The price tag was 8000.00 dollars for the install. Again completely stock with no frame connectors etc. Wasn't even going to mention it, however it gives everyone an idea of how the car was cared for through its life. The car remained like this until I purchased the car in 2012.

The first thing I did was repaint the hood and nose. the blend is near perfect. The TA is a bird delete ordered car. I opted to put the bird on it. If the buyer does not like it, I will remove it. I then block sanded the car. The paint came out beautiful with the base and clear in absolutely excellent shape after all these years. The car is super straight with very little orange peel, and looks like it was just painted. No rust, dings, or dents. Next came the engine. Out came the 455, and in went the 400. A full engine detail took place including the firewall, inner fenders, engine block, full carb refurb with correct plating, ceramic coated exhaust manifolds, booster, master cylinder, and brake lines. The block was repainted correct baby blue. Correct GM hoses were also used. The Pontiac rally's were then taken off, and fully reconditioned Honeycombs went on it. The price tag was 2000.00 dollars with tires. The correct exhaust was also installed (single muffler with two tails).

The car runs, drives and looks fantastic. The pictures tell no lies. I consider this a very correct car, right down to the carburetor and distributor. Yes, she's all original and numbers matching. Again the bird is not correct, the interior as far as seating is now white (have the original seat covers in excellent shape that are black), and the AM radio from what I was told was replaced at the dealer for an AM/FM delco unit. You will hard pressed to find another this nice with such good pedigree. It is not a show car, as I believe that they are fresh frame offs that rarely see the light of day. This I would say is a very nice #2 car, that was done right the first time. It shows, through the body, paint, interior, and drivetrain. Everything works except the clock. I will give one with the car.

I can be reached at 302-229-0844. You may see the car by appointment. Good luck bidding.

Win a car while supporting a charity this holiday season

Thu, Dec 9 2021

Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability are subject to change. No donation or payment necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes. See official rules on Omaze. The leaves have fallen, there is a crispness to the air and there have already been multiple forecasts of snow, which can only mean one thing: We're coming up on Christmas. While you've been busy thinking about what kind of gifts you're going to give your loved ones, we here at Autoblog have been deciding which dream car we'd like to see in our driveway on Christmas morning. A car for Christmas does seem a bit extreme and expensive, but thanks to these Omaze sweepstakes, it doesn't have to break the bank. Here are the current sweepstakes we'd like to win this holiday season. Win a DeLorean DMC-12 - Enter at Omaze James Riswick, West Coast Editor: Let me be clear, the DeLorean is a pretty terrible car. Its speedometer doesn't even go up to the fabled 88 mph. Seriously, look at the pictures: tops out at 85. Also, who services a DeLorean? And how much would it cost to maintain one? $AlloftheMoney or just $MostoftheMoney? So owning it could be a total headache, but at least by winning one through Omaze, you'd be relieved of the financial burden of buying one in the first place. You'd also get the chance to own one of the most iconic cars of all time, one that transcends car enthusiasm and is instantly recognizable by everyone as the "Back to the Future" car. Plus, "everyone" doesn't know that the DeLorean was actually a pretty terrible car. So, I already own James Bond's car from 1995, why not Doc Brown's from 1985? Win a 2021 Bentley Bentayga V8 - Enter at Omaze Eddie Sabatini, Production Manager: Why am I choosing a +$200K Bentley SUV? Because even if I could afford one I'd never be able to wrap my head around spending money on one. So why not try to win one by donating what I can afford to a good cause? I first saw the Bentley Bentayga up close and personal at the Frankfurt Motor Show (I forget which year but I'll never forget this SUV). And although it looks like the Bentayga Omaze is offering up doesn't have the opulent tailgate setup I fell in love with when I saw it in Frankfurt, I'd still enter to win. Win a 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda - Enter at Omaze Byron Hurd, Editor: Few automotive marketing efforts stick out in my head more than the Mercedes-Benz holiday spots and magazine placements.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
