YOU ARE LOOKING AT A 1978 PONTIAC TRANS AM THAT IS A PROJECT THAT RUNS AND DRIVES, SO YOU CAN BUILD IT AS YOU DRIVE IF YOU LIKE. LETS START WITH THE BAD. THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR NEEDS EVERYTHING, CARPET SEAT COVERS, DOOR PANELS, WELL YOU GET THE PICTURE IT NEEDS IT ALL. THE BODY IS IN GREAT SHAPE WITH A SMALL AMOUNT OF RUST IN THE RIGHT REAR LOWER QUARTER AND THE BOTTOM OF THE RIGHT DOOR IS REAL RUSTY, BUT THE REST OF THE BODY IS IN GREAT SHAPE. THE DRIVETRAIN IS IN GREAT SHAPE. THE 400 MOTOR CRANKS EVERYTIME WITHOUT ANY SMOKE OR NOISES OF ANY KIND RUNS STRONG. CARBURATOR TAKES AWHILE TO WARM UP AT IDLE. TRANS SHIFTS GREAT AS WELL AS PASSING GEAR. THE CAR HAS A POSITRACTION REAR END AND HAS NO PROBLEMS. THE TIRES HAVE PLENTY OF TREAD BUT ARE OLD AND DRYROTTED, HOWEVER I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR AROUND ALOT THE LAST FEW DAYS AND THEY RIDE SMOOTHE. THIS CAR WILL BE ALOT OF FUN FOR SOMEONE WITH THE 400 AND THE POSI IT DOESNT GET MUCH BETTER. THIS TRANS AM WILL MAKE A GREAT DRIVER TO SOMEONE. THANKS FOR BIDDING AND GOOD LUCK. ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK AND GOOD LUCK.
