Vehicle Detail
1970 Pontiac Trans am, RAIII 400 4 barrel, TH 400 Auto, manual windows, air conditioning, tilt wheel, Polar white exterior with Lucerne blue interior, built in Norwood Ohio and lived in the Midwest all of it's life. I have owned this car for 26 years and I am the third owner. I listed the car last year but after several failed buyer attempts I decided to keep it. I have now decided to list one more time in the interest of freeing up garage space. I disassembled this car in 1991 to start a full restoration but that's where it ended. I have realized that I will probably never get back to restoring so here it is. I love this car and I sincerely hope I can sell it to someone who wants to restore it right and bring this car back to life. The world just doesn't have enough 70 TA's. Total production for 1970 was 3,196 and 1,339 Automatics which are actually rarer than 4 spds. This is also an original Air conditioning car which makes it even rarer yet. The body has some rust issues but is pretty solid overall. The rear quarter panels have been replaced with non OEM replacements however they fit just like the originals, the rear wheelhouses have been replaced with OEM GM outer wheelhouses. The rocker panels and front subframe are solid. The hood and decklid are in great shape, the rear fiberglass tail panel is MIA and the lower tailpanel has some rust holes, The rear frame rails are rusty and the original gas tank is rusty, The doors are excellent rust free, the left fender needs a lower patch and the right fender is pretty solid, Floor pans are pretty solid with one quarter size hole on the left side and the trunk floor is pretty solid as well with a quarter size hole as well. The front radiator support is rusty. The front euro nose is great and the lower front valance is solid. There is also a small hole in the upper rear window channel and the corners of the dash support are rusty( like all of them). The interior is nice and original.. Seats are nice, carpet is shot, headliner is very nice, dash has small repairable surface defect by left knee area, Original console is very nice, original plastic panels are nice, original gages, dash plate, chrome gage bezels, original am/fm stereo, original door panels in good shape, original formula steering wheel, It's all there. The original block has a damaged cylinder wall but repairable, excellent #12 heads, orig. intake, shaker w/operable door, orig,carb, distributor, RA111 manifolds, wiring harness all there. Suspension is still intact and car will roll, Trans and rear end have never been out of car, 5 original rally II wheels all there, I have many new parts incl. complete decal package NIB purchased in 1991. My cell is 309-287-4963.. The car is at my home in Illinois, I will try to answer all questions and I'm open to offers.
