1981 PONTIAC TRANS AM TURBO 113,000 miles 3rd owner California carHagerty Collector Car Value (Level 4 car) = $7,100 This car was just purchased in a package deal (with a motorhome) from the second owner. My initial plan was to fix it up with a new paint job, emblems, interior pieces (where needed), etc., and then sell it. But I decided to try listing here as-is to see if there is some interest in it. This is an opportunity to get a very straight (and rare) Turbo Trans Am for a great price! The car is certainly not perfect by any means, but it does have a lot going for it. It is very straight, with no visible body damage (or repairs). It runs and drives extremely nice, tracks straight, and shifts smoothly. It has factory A/C, all the gauges work, turbo indicators (on the hood) work, etc. The seats are in very, very nice condition. It definitely needs a paint job and new emblems, and some of the exterior trim pieces are a bit loose. The dashboard also has some cracks, though it has a dash cover (albeit an aged one). Before I agreed to the deal, I took the car to an ASE certified shop to have them check everything out. They said the motor appeared to run strong, and all the fluids were in excellent condition. Here are their notes to me: Windshield is crackedWindshield trim is missing (I have this, it was removed in preparation for new glass)Passenger sun visor is missing (it is off, I have it though)Interior kick panel carpet needs to be replaced on doorsInterior rear panel carpet/trim is wornFront/rear bushings are wornCatalytic converter missing (I have this, it was removed after smog so as to not interfere with the turbo)No mufflers (straight pipes were run for performance, but did not affect the most recent smog results)Rear tires have some weather cracksRear brake pads are getting close to replacement The car was lowered in the front and rear, but I have the stock spindles to return it to its stock height. If you have any questions regarding the car, please feel free to let me know.Note: Car is also listed locally and generating interest, so we reserve the right to end the listing at any time.
