Vehicle Detail

A Small kiss on the front end caused the original owner to put 75 grills in for the blinkers then shortly after drove it into a barn where it has been since just before All in the Family went off the air.. Now it is back out in the sunshine and still running like a bat out of hell!! It does demand on the instructions that it wants 91 octane or higher.. Lol. The decades in the barn let rust play a little.. SMALL surface rust on the floor pan But the fenders and quarters have seen less rusty days.They will need work. I am including the brand new front end parts shown plus the original 74 grills. one wheel cap and one beauty ring are missing *probably still in the Barn) . I will include an extra matching wheel with a good spare on it. "unmolested" Barn finds usually come with most of the drivetrain torn out and gone...This Beast drove in AND drove out!!! The Carpet?... Rotten! But the dash, seats and panels all look new.. The electric has a few small issues that I found. The oil sending unit needs replacing(But has excellent pressure). The drivers window doesn't go down(but doesn't hum either so probably a wire, corrosion or a fuse) STARTS AND RUNS GREAT WITH NO PROBLEM but the shifter needs a small tap forward as the adjustment for the emergency cutoff switch is a touch off. You can restore it or DRIVE IT AS IT IS!!.. Everybody turns to look when they hear it coming and restored or not it is an original 455 Trans Am roaring past.. Who is NOT going to be impressed?.. NOBODY!!! Hook the CB back up in the console and get all your friends to get one too.. Transport your next gathering to the 1970's!!! Start your own 70's show!!!! Low opening bid and NO RESERVE!!!! DON"T LOSE YOUR CHANCE TO OWN A REAL EARLY 70'S 455 Trans Am WITHOUT NEEDING TO OWN A BANK TO BUY IT!! YOU MAY NEVER FIND ANOTHER!!!On Jul-20-12 at 11:00:40 PDT, seller added the following information: All Glass is great except a crack at the top of the windshield. Just to reinterate.. It has collected some rust from decades stored in the Barn. The fenders and quarters have seen the worst of it.. IF YOU WANTED TO RESTORE the Body and Fender rust could be fixed but Fenders are inexpensive and better to replace. The rear quarters will have to be replaced. Did I mention it has WICKED POWER??? It Pounces like a TIGER and growls like a Lion!!!! YOU WANT THE FEEL OF AN AUTHENTIC CLASSIC MUSCLE CAR???? THIS IS IT!!! IN SPADES!!!! Have added more photos!!!On Jul-20-12 at 19:26:19 PDT, seller added the following information: THIS CAR DRIVES EXCELLENT!!! It drives like it has much less than its 73000 Miles.. Suspension and steering tight and responsive. I drove it 500 miles round trip and had zero problems. Quite the opposite. It had the envy of every Muscle car enthusiast I passed as they listened to the music of this Wicked 455 pulling away... DRIVE IT ANYWHERE YOU LIKE JUST AS IT IS!!!On Jul-20-12 at 21:32:37 PDT, seller added the following information: To aswer 4 questions at once... YES. There was a buy it now price but it disappeared when the first bid was made. The Buy it now was $25,000.00 And the opening bid was $1999.00On Jul-26-12 at 21:21:52 PDT, seller added the following information: It has a Y9 455 Block and 4X heads. They match up with the Vin info. Julie :) NADA has dropped considerably on the conservative side with the current market but you can see compared to the super duty you can spend what it takes to be cherry and still come out way ahead!!! Demand is also high. Recently here have been many 73-73 455 Trans Ams selling for twice these values... As I have a set of 5 honeycomb wheels to include the spare Tire the 5% should read 7%.
