Vehicle Detail

1972 Trans Am CloneBuilt 400 Engine With a Manual 5 SpeedCalifornia Car Runs and drives great. Engine and trans have 5400 miles on them since rebuild. Rebuild was about 6 years ago so its been driven less than 1000 miles a year. All suspension, brakes and steering components were replaced at the same timeEngine is a 1970 400 out of a lemans. It is .030 with Hyperutectic pistons, factory crank and rods, crank is .010 .010 and has a comp cam setup in it. Cam is very streetable and makes power off idle to 6000 rpm. Cam has a nice muscle car lope. Trans shifts great and all shifts are positive. Clutch is new as well, I think its a Centerforce. It is a 5 speed transmission. Brand new not rebuilt. The rearend is the factory 10 bolt with 3.55 gears and a posi.The tires have a lot of tread but are old. Rims are real Cragar Draglites. they are aluminum, no curb rash and shine pretty good. They are not clear coated so they polish up with aluminum polish easily. Front disc, rear drum power brakes, power steering. manual locks and windows. The factory gauges are in the car but factory speedo did not work with new trans so it has a new speedo just clamped to steering column. All other gauges like oil water volts are new autometer. The speedo is also an auto meter and mileage is correct to engine rebuild. It has a 5" monster tach with adjustable shift lite.The interior is in excellt condition. No tears in seats, headliner is new, carpet is new but has a slice in it by shifter. dash is near perfect with only a crack by gauges and steering column. Top of dash is perfect, tach is screwed to a pillar not the dash. easily removable. The paint is pretty good for a 12 year old paint job, few minor chips and blemishes but shows great still. All glass is good. Trim and bumpers good. Not a show car or perfect restore but a nice driver quality paint and body. Looks really good, nice shine. This is the 3rd paint job, original was red then green then this blue.There is some rust in lower portion of trunk pan and very lower corners of quarter panel are getting a few rust bubbles. This is the only rust on the car. Floor pans are solid. Doors and fenders are solid. Overall the car performs well, drives great and has pleanty of power. drives and stops straight, no pulling or shakes, no rattles, very tight suspension. Drives like a newer car. Engine is responsive, stays cool (about 180-190*) and has great oil psi. All fluids changed on time every time. Very well maintained. All the lights work, wipers, dome light, signals etc...This could easily be a daily driver or just a fun show car. Its very reliable and has no engine, trans or wiring issues. Starts and runs correct every time. Engine should make 400-425hp and it will cruise down the freeway at 70 in 5th gear around 2000 rpm.Clean California title in hand, registration is current. Car is available for viewing and test drives.Any questions please feel free to call Jarrod at 619-988-2274
