Two Project 1981 Recaro Nascar Turbo Trans Am's *very Rare* on 2040-cars
Lutz, Florida, United States
I picked these up from a nice gentleman close to me who had these just sitting and waiting to be restored. I only restore Trans Am's and have a couple projects in front of these so I'm letting them go to someone who can put these diamonds in the rough back on the road. Anybody who knows these cars knows how rare it is to find one let alone two. Only 2000 made in 1981. The 1st car is a clean Florida title X87T (VIN 1G2AX87T7BN118796) car that had a tree fall on it across the hood area. The interior is intact and has had a 403 installed at some point in it's life. It will need body work from the tree damage but is mostly rust free. The trunk, pans, rear hinge pans, rear valance and other normal areas common to rust are clean. All I could find is some bondo on the lower rear quarters. This car is about 95% there and would make a nice resto. T-tops are in good shape. The 2nd car is a non titled (bill of Sale) X87T (VIN 1G2AX87T9BN116306) car bought as a parts car for the first. It is complete with interior and has a little more rust than the first car. It does have the 301 but only has a carb set up on it now. The intake, turbo and manifold are included however for the resto. T-tops are also in good shape. This car is a excellent parts car for the first or could even be restored if chosen. It is also about 95% there. Please remember these Super Rare cars are sold as a project. Both cars are worth approx 12k in parts. A finished Recaro T/A can sell for approx 20k so these are a solid investment. I'm not interested in selling only one or parting them out. All parts pictured are included in the sale. Buyer is soley responsible for the pick up and delivery of the cars and parts. Cars are located Outside of Tampa, Fl. 33559. Any questions please ask and thanks for looking.

MotorWeek's 80's GM muscle coupe roundup includes Regal GN and Monte Carlo SS
Thu, Jan 29 2015Even with just four brands in the family, General Motors still represents a performance powerhouse. Between the Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Camaro Z/28, Cadillac CTS-V and ATS-V, The General can still deliver plenty of thrills. The 1980s, though, saw the brand go even crazier with performance. While the Camaro and Corvette were still around back in the day, GM had a number of other interesting performance offerings. The Bowtie was complemented by the long-deceased Monte Carlo SS, while the now-defunct Pontiac and Oldsmobile offered the Grand Prix and thumping 442, respectively. And Buick, which isn't short on performance with its Regal GS and Verano Turbo, offered a much more serious vehicle, in the form of the Grand National (not to mention the Darth Vader-spec GNX). MotorWeek, in its hugely entertaining retro flashbacks, looks back on these three long-lost GM performance icons, and it's just as good as you might expect.

Burt Reynolds' vehicles up for auction at Barrett-Jackson
Tue, Sep 25 2018Burt Reynolds' influence on car culture cannot be overstated. Be it "Smokey and the Bandit" or "Cannonball Run," his films inspired a generation of car enthusiasts. He died a few weeks back from cardiac arrest at age 82. This weekend, four vehicles from Reynolds' personal collection — three Pontiacs and a Chevy — will go up for auction at Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas. It seems Reynolds had plans to sell the cars before he passed. He even filmed a short teaser for the auction and planned to attend the event himself. Three of the cars are Pontiac Trans Ams. Two are re-creations of the cars he drove in "Bandit" and the film "Hooper." Both are 1978 models. The third Trans Am is from 1984 and was used to promote Reynolds' USFL team, the Tampa Bay Bandits. The fourth vehicle is a 1978 Chevy R30 pickup truck. It's styled like the truck he drove in "Cannonball Run." None of the vehicles were actually used in the movies. But they were registered in his name, making them far more legitimate than some other movie-inspired clones. It's unclear how many Bandit Trans Ams Reynolds has owned over the years. Another car connected to him sold for $450,000 back in 2014. His death is sure to drive the price of these new cars even higher.

Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you're an automotive engineer being tormented by an immortal being made of fire, then wouldn't you think it best to have a custom coupe called the FireBreather for your getaway car? That's the FireBreather in the image above, adorned by the red wings that once fronted the Pontiac Firebird, running away from a black cloud of evil in a trailer for the movie Jinn.
The Jinn is eternal evil, always waiting for the chance to make things float across rooms before going on homicidal urban rampages. The FireBreather is a Gen-V Chevrolet Camaro - from the V6 to the ZL1 - that's been through Classic Design Concepts' extensive list of exterior and interior modifications, including entirely new front and rear fascias and side skirts, sway bars and springs, Pirelli P Zeroes and an available Edelbrock supercharger.
The movie - FireBreathing chase scenes and all - was shot in Monroe, Michigan. You can watch the trailer below, but since the FireBreather only get a couple of seconds on screen, you can find out more about it on Street Legal TV and its official site.
