I am selling my 1978 Pontiac Trans Am - 4spd 400CI number matching engine with the original 3.42 Posi rear ratio. This car is in exceptional original condition with no rust and painted the original beautiful Chesterfield Brown. The paint quality is as good as seen in these photos with no door dings or dents. The car comes with PHS documentation as seen in the photos and is ready for the cruise-in or show. The car was sold new in Bellevue, Washington and has been a Oregon/Washington car all its life. Options include: Usual Trans Am features and AM/FM stereo, Power windows, Tilt, Custom Trim group, Power Door locks, Rear defrost, deck lid release, Custom seat belts, Tinted glass, hood decal plus the desirable Trans Am Special Performance package which during production included the WS-6 suspension and the TA 6.6 Performance motor. It also included the 3.42 ratio Posi. The car was produced on 2/9/78 and invoice price was $6,444.59. In the past 5 years the following has been completed: The original 400 motor was rebuilt with slightly better camshaft, Ram Air exhaust manifolds with new complete exhaust system-magnaflow mufflers. A Carburetor from another 1978 Trans Am was professionally rebuilt and the Super t-10 Transmission and clutch were replaced with a remanufactured unit in November 2008. The rear end and brakes were completely rebuilt with new axels and seals, new and correct interior, new tires with honeycomb rims that were professional restored, new suspension and finally a new complete paint job about 6 years ago. The car is about as close to a frame-off restoration as it can get and is just about like new. The only item that does not work is the clock-everything functions as it should and the car drives great! Starts right up, has updated Pertronix ignition with a 160MPH speedometer from a 1970 Trans Am. This drives like a car should. Windows, Door locks and Rear defrost work great. The seats had new padding installed and feel and look great. The only problem that was not dealt with is the small crack in the dash. It is not from heat, it looks like someone hit the dash with a fist causing the 2.5 inch crack – please see photo. If you’re looking for a non-T-top Special high performance Trans Am, this is it! It is exceptional in all areas and stands out with the right options. No worry about leaking T-tops here and it is a much more solid ride without those tops. Car is sold with no warranty and it will be the responsibility of the new owner to ship to his or her location. I will help in any way that I can to find someone to ship if needed, and can hold the car here for a reasonable time if it is agreed upon before bidding and the deposit has been paid. I have a barn that it can be stored in. I DO sell to international bidders and will help in anyway, BUT the car MUST be paid for before the car and title is sent, with funds clearing for a reasonable time. Please ask questions BEFORE bidding. If you do not have the funds, or need to sell something first then please do not bid. If you have a feedback of less than 10, please contact me first. You may email or call me at 503-309-4765 with any questions. I just want the new owner to be happy with no surprises on your end or mine.
