Vehicle Detail
FOR SALE 1977 Trans Am , This is the real deal Y82 Special Edition, with PHS documentation, not a clone. One of 2,699 4 spd, Y82 Special Edition Trans Am’s ever built. The car was recently professionally restored as a Platinum Edition, which replaced the Gold Decals and interior bezels with Custom Platinum and Silver decals and silver bezels. Still easy to change back to the Gold if desired. New Year One 17*9 Reproduction snowflake rims with black accents paired with brand new 275/50 rear tires and 255/50 front tires. Tons of money in receipts for professional work done on this Platinum Edition Trans Am, by Restore A Muscle Car in Lincoln, NE. The car runs & sounds great, is in great mechanical condition and the car is rust free and straight as an arrow, this car was redone the right way. I would not be afraid to drive this car anywhere; it turns heads and gets more attention than any other car I have owned. The engine is a professionally rebuilt 1972 Pontiac 455, bored .030 (7.6 Liters) over which torques out around 355 on regular pump gas. The engine was built to be a great driving engine, it has tons of torque for cruising around town, and yet it has a great lopey idle and is very drivable and easy to drive compared to some other rebuilds that I have owned. There are only 500 miles on the rebuild (330 miles from when we drove it home from having the work done. The car has undergone a complete mechanical inspection and everything that was identified was fixed or replaced. The radiator, carburetor, manifold, etc, etc. Mechanically, the brake system has been completely gone thru, new master cylinders, brake shoes, wheel cylinders, drums, calipers etc. Rear axle seal & repaint, door pins and bushings, hood hinges, new shaker assembly, functional flap shaker, cowl cover, lock cylinders, new clutch, and seal kit on transmission. New Idler arm assembly, center link, door handles and latches replaced, repacked wheel bearings, installed new rear sway bar, car was aligned and the Edelbrock 750 carburetor was professionally tuned. On the interior, the seats were professionally gone thru and fixed including brand new seat covers & the belts were re-dyed, new steering column and horn, new steering wheel, console, shifter boot cover, sill plates, power window alignment, carpet, floor mats, headliner, dash cap, and rear deck shelf, all the wiring was gone thru and repaired, all gauges, lights and switches work as they should. Custom Year One door panels, with silver bezel inserts to match the dash and a 6.5” speaker in the doors. The audio system is top of the line with a new Alpine head unit, and J&L Audio 6.5” speakers in the door and 6*9’s in the rear deck both highlighted with black and silver grills. The system is powered by a J&L Audio 500 watt, 4 channel amp. that was professionally installed as well. A hush mat kit was installed on the complete car to improve acoustics. On the exterior, all bumpers, spoilers, lights etc were removed, repaired, sanded, filled and painted. Bumpers were sent out for a dip removal of the old paint so a flexible primer and paint could be applied to prevent the cracking that can occur with temperature changes that affects many of the cars that are properly restored. All parts were sanded, filled and repainted. Any rust spots (three small ones) that were found were cut out and replaced with clean metal, new trunk to Qtr extensions, rear floor pans, there is no bondo on this car it was all done professionally, and done the right way. Completely new seal kits for all doors, T-tops & trunk. The trunk was also repainted and new chrome exhaust splitters were installed. All the trim exterior trim was painted black (T-Tops, Front & Rear Window) and the front grill is black with Chrome accents.
