AS YOU CAN SEE THE CAR IS IN FAIR CONDITION WITH 185,000 MILES. THE LT1 5.7 ENGINE RUNS GOOD. THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GOOD . THE DRIVESHAFT IS IN GOOD SHAPE. THE REAR END HAS LEAK AROUND THE TUBE AND COVER GASKET. THE BRAKE PADS ARE 40% AT BEST AND ROTORS ARE RUSTY AND GLAZED. THE TIRES ARE IN GOOD SHAPE WITH SOME DRY CRACKING IN TREAD AND 40-50% TREAD. THE LEFT SIDE RIMS HAVE SPOTS WHERE THE CHROME IS BUBBLING UP ON OUTSIDE AND THEY ARE ALL PEELING ON THE INSIDE. IT HAS NEW MUFFLER,SPARK PLUGS,FUEL FILTER AND USED FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY WITH 95,000 MILES AD NEW STRAINER. THE BODY HAS RUST ON THE UNDER SIDE AND ON WHEELWELLS.THE BACK IS THE WORST BUT IT HAS NOT GONE THRU. THE HOOD HAS THE CLEAR COATING ALMOST ALL PEALED OFF.THE DRIVERS DOOR DROPS WHEN OPENING AS THE LOWER HINGE IS WORE OUT. THE WINDOW MOTORS, SWITCHES AND BEZELS HAVE BEEN REPLACED. THE DRIVER REGULATOR IS WORE OUT AND JUMPS WHEN GOING UP. THE PASSENGER QUARTER PANEL IS DENTED IN. THE CONVERTIBLE TOP IS ROUGH AND THE WINDOW LEAKS WHEN IT RAINS AS IT IS LOOSE I TOP. THE PLUGS ARE OUT THE TRUNK SO IT WILL DRAIN OUT AS IT WAS HOLDING WATER UP TO THE BOTTOM OF THE CD CHANGER. THE CD CHANGER IS JUNK. THE PUMP AND MOTOR FOR THE TOP ARE STILL GOOD SHAPE AND WORKING. THE INTERIOR IS DECENT SHAPE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE DRIVERS SEAT WHICH IS RIPPED UP BADLY. ALL THE OTHER SEAT ARE DIRTY WITH STAINS. THE SEAT BLADDERS STILL WORK ON BOTH OF THEM THE CARPET IS WORE THREW ON THE DRIVERS FRONT FLOOR. THE DISPLAY THE RADIO DOES NOT WORK, BUT ALL THE OTHER OPTIONS INSIDE ARE IN WORKING ORDER. THE WINDSHIELD AND WINDWS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE. THERE WAS ONLY 463 TRANS AM RAM-AIR(WS6) CONVERTIBLES MADE IN 1997. ALSO THERE WAS 25 RAM-AIR CONVERTIBLES USED IN THE PARADE LAPS IN THE SPRING 1997 TALLADEGA WINSTON CUPS RACE AND THIS POSSIBLE WAS ONE OF THOSE USED,AS THE OTHER 4 I HAVE FOUND LISTED WERE ALL THE SAME COLOR AND SAME OPTIONED VEHICLES AND THIS WAS BUILT LESS THAN ONE WEEK LATER THAN ONE I FOUND LISTED. I HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT THE TALLEDEGA SPEEDWAY BUT HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THEM. I TRIED TO LIST EVERYTHING IN DETAIL AS ACCURATELY AS POSSIBLE. THIS IS A RARE CAR AND HOPEFULLY DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE AT BEING FIXED UP AND KEEPING THAT PONTIAC HERTIAGE ALIVE AS THEY ARE NO LONGER BEING MADE, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK...
