1977 Pontiac Trans Am

Clear

This 1977 Pontiac Trans Am Buccaneer Red and black interior has had only 4 owners and has been kept in heated garages since the 2nd owner took possession of this beauty in 1979.  When I bought this car in 2006, it had 52,950 original miles and in the past 9 years it has been driven less than 1,000 miles and has been pampered.  The car has the original Pontiac 400 engine and automatic transmission.  The air conditioning system blows cold, power steering, 8 x 15 inch Trans Am wheels that have been professionally turned, polished and powder coated. The center caps are original NOS metal caps.  The interior of the car is in excellent condition. Dash, seats, console, headliner, carpeting, original rubber GM floor mats (front and rear), and door panels are all in excellent condition with no damage. The doors open and shut with no sagging and no window rattle. The trunk has the original mat, original spare tire and jack.  The windows are in excellent condition with no cracks or scratches.  The exterior is in very good shape, with the paint being approximately 90% original, with only the rockers, flairs, and bumpers being professionally repainted by the previous owner due to very light insect and stone chip damage.  There are 2 small, pea sized area by the rear windows that could be easily touched up or repaired, it never bothered me as the car is over 30 years old, but nevertheless they are there.  Please ask questions before bidding as we have made every effort to describe our Trans Am carefully and to point out any flaws that it may have.  On Aug-23-15 at 06:03:36 PDT, seller added the following information: I purchased this car in 2006 from its 3rd owner and have attached the complete description in order to provide even more information to serious bidders: eBay Motors: Pontiac: Trans Am (item 4607120083 end time Jan-29-06 17:51: ...
