Should Kikawa get rid of his Tesla for one of these?
TheHoonigans 100%
Yes. Oh I’m sorry.
HELL YEAH!!!!
420%
He already wants to
No, that electric car can be fast af
It's also cool to see Kikawa nerd out on something, that car genuinely made him happay lol!
He was impressed... and we almost never see him impressed.
@@TheHoonigans that's what makes it great.
Never seen the Big K impressed before.
i dont know if i'd call it nerding out, i mean im pretty sure i heard him in the back ground faintly ask him if it was a 78, and i mean if firebirds are truly a dream car like it is mine then you know the difference between the 70-73 models and the 77-81
he at least knew it was a 2nd gen lol
70-73 firebirds are extremely underrated
My favorite car.
The 73 Trans-am is the most beautiful car in the world in my opinion period...
My first car was a 73trans am! Miss it every day!
70-81 are the same, you just gotta drop the right engine in. 70-73 are so rare though you don't see too many. I'm looking for a 1981 Trans Am that came with the 5.0 chevy motor and super T-10 4 speed. I can drop a 350 or 454 right in there with factory mounts.
@wesdoobner7521 did you end up getting one? I got a '80 earlier this year, swapping a 400sbc in it and a doug nash 5 speed
Kikawa with the cowboy hat looks like Amy Wongs dad from Futurama 😂😂😂😂
Man this guy rocks. I wasn’t expecting any shredding when I saw how clean this thing is.
When you can see an old muscle car from 30' away and think to yourself "damn that things arrow straight and gapped to the millimeter," you know it's gotta ring in at 6 figures. But back to your point...glad that dudes not a sissy
The guy is a legendary Texas street racer. He was notorious with his tt Lamborghini, and manual Supra.
Guy ruined a classic PMD what that Chebbby engine
@@ramairgto72 FFS the LS is NOT a Chevy! It's coperate GM.
Google / Yahoo /Bing can't save you, best bet is to start the name calling and walk away.
HOLY! That TransAm is soooooo nice!!! I'm 100% sure Zac loves it
Joe Alex 👍👍👍GTR
Annamarie Tsai 👍👍👍FIREBIRD
Glad the owner wasn't coward, muscle cars are made to shred tires not just to look pretty!
I'm glad to see a SEMA car thats actually built to function and not just be a money pit art piece meant to draw a crowd.
He's a coward Dick for not using a REAL PMD engine, and a moron to spend money on making it look PMD when he could have built a PMD engine for the same cost.
The owner races TT Lamborghinis in the standing mile.
S.W. is a LEGEND in the car scene. He was one of the original pioneers of the import scene in Texas.
When he said "a little rip" I expected a 5 second burnout tops.
Construction man still waiting to see the front...
When I hear chop the second the video starts, I know it’s gonna be a good one
We love a good chop on the cold open.
Grew up on that sound and the smells
you kids dont even know what chop is lol
this is mild chop
@@dasbronco what do you have the biggest cam out I'm guessing?
no not at all dont have anything that has a big cam in it. i just dont think theres much chop here. there was a video last week that had a big blower on it and they were saying it had massive chop when it was blower surge.
You shoulda had the guys at the construction site join in on the wrap lmao
SW is a Legend...
...that made a Camaro out of a SD PMD........
Funny that the Hoonigan team seemed to have no idea.
@@cyanmontoya8569 I know right. He just the holds world record for 6 speed MK4. Lol That's probably 1 of his slowest cars.
@@cyanmontoya8569 I wasn't sure if they were joking, at first, but I really think the Hoonigan crew was clueless they were talking to SW. Those guys must live under a rock.
That's the most amazing thunder chicken I've ever seen
Cam Davies Thunder chickens are Ford's... Wasn't there a different nickname for these?
Vidal Carrillo Thats it, Ford reserved Thunder Chicken for the Thunderbird line and it was Fire Chicken for the Pontiac. Thanks for the prompt!
It's more Camaro now, so its not PMD anymore.
#FucChebby
Alec Fleming all the old school hot rod guy's I know have always referred to the symbol on the bonnet of a trans am as the thunder chicken
@@camdavies5530 Yeah maybe in Romania. Here in the US nobody called a Pontiac Trans Am a thunder chicken. Fire chicken, Screaming chicken. Also none of these terms were compliments.
That car can get east bound and DOWN! Officially the sickest restomod I've ever seen.
Destroyed a classic with a Chevy, you have crap taste
@@ramairgto72 uh, smokey and the bandit was a trans am? I just used the line off a pun. Chill.
@@ramairgto72 unless you're referring to the built ls7. Its not that bad. Its far more reliable and makes great power.
@@ramairgto72 you do realize Pontiac and Chevy were literally under the same name, so... That's like saying that the IS300 was ruined because it had a Toyota motor in it
As far as it goes, tons of guys back in the day would swap out the stock Pontiac motor to a Chevy because the Pontiacs were a bit iffy. Look around at first gen Firebirds vs Camaros and see the price difference. A ton of the old birds have a Chevy 350 swapped in because it was easier to race
Shout out to the construction scumbag for avoiding work just to glance at a beauty in the distance.
We would too.
Scumbag? Lol hes busting his ass as your running your fucking mouth lol...
If only he could have avoided REVERSE while admiring, damn. *beep beep fucking beep*
Construction Guy "Hey, can I see the front?"
Hoonigans: "Sure thing." Proceeds to ignore construction guy.
dem dumb construction guys... lol
The O.G. S.W.! He had a track miata, 7 second 6 spd Supra, and one of the early UGR Gallardos just to name a few. Was proud to shake his hand back in TX2K11. The car's he's been through would make anyone jealous.
2nd Gen F-Bodies are the most beautiful cars ever.
Heck ya!
Lovin the secret shreds. That's a sick clean build too.
7:17 Kikawa gettin a sniff of what he's missin.
*Sensory Overload*
Had 455 on the scoop..
these are the kinds of builds that make me fall in love with new cars and makes my bucket list even longer than it already is...
I can't think of many things want more than that. That is perfection.
Kikawa got man flipped lol most he’s ever laughed
*Crispy Idle*
*Salivates*
I live about 3hrs. from Detroit Speed, the shop that built this car, and visited while they were building it. The build pictures on their website are equally impressive. Awesome TA!
I got a little teary eyed when they walked around to the back after he started. That is probably the nicest idle sound I have ever heard.
I need Zach to give me a chop rating on this beast!
The best Trans Am I have ever seen. That man is def Hoonigan material 300,000 dollar build and gave 'er the beans. Awesome hat
Never seen Kikawa smiled so much. He genuinely loved that car
I bet you that guy is grateful you guys talked him into to the second set of donuts. To see the pure joy on his face when he gets out of the car. Priceless, great work.
So early it almost hurts. Also you guys at Hoonigan are the kings of scumbagging the nicest cars into doing the down and dirty, and we thank you for your work.
We do it for viewers like you.
@@TheHoonigans what a god
Not first! Thanks for the consistent uploads!!!
Slowly Kikawa is starting to open up! Soon he's going to be hoonin! Tesla hotboii wheels update soon?
👊
Check the bonus channel fam
@@carguy1717 yeah, was referring to an update with the wheels and tires on the car. Sorry should've been more specific.
Thanks for sharing all the great times guys!
Love seeing Kikawa have fun, and be pumped about a car!
S.W. is a straight up legend in Austin.
Is he the same guy from back in the early 00s w the like million hp Supra?
Yup, same guy with the SICK MKIVs. Insane cars he has
I’m in the hospital but I still gotta catch that midnight upload 😉
Get well soon!
TheHoonigans Appreciate it, will report back tomorrow at the same time
its not like you're doin anything else.
hopefully its nothing super serious.
Edwin Marmol get better brother
Get Better!!
That was like one of the best burnouts I ever seen , such a cool car and a cool dude for showing it
Ohhhh, that car's sooooo 'prilly'. Amazing how certain body styles from back in the day can still look contemporary! So beautiful!
I was super stoked to see 455 on the shaker hood and then very disappointed when he said ls😒
ls6 nova same I was like wow that's not what I wanted but cool nonetheless I guess
I was hoping it was a 455 but your right still cool
Agreed. Can't argue with the quality of build... it's awesome. BUT, this guy obviously wasn't worried about spending money. Why didn't he drop in a Butler Performance engine and keep it all Pontiac? It's his car I guess.
@@originalpunkSxE agreed 1 billion percent,this would be the nicest t/a in existence with a badass butler 455(stroked of course) make it an S-SD super-superduty
@@originalpunkSxE that's what I thought and Commented too All Aluminum Butler Pontiac 455 or 500 stroker but DSE is really Camaro Fan
Good morning from Puerto Rico ✌✌
SW Bringing some heat as usual. He used to roll up to Cars & Coffee with 4+ cars. In his defense, the show was about 1/8 mile from his home. BTW, that water tower looks super familiar. Excited what other cars y'all feature from our hometown.
I love these build that are done with no details missed
SW use to be a huge Supra guy lol
Tell us more...
TheHoonigans he had a ‘95 hard top 6 speed twin turbo car in Black that was 1 of 5. He ran it at the Texas standing mile and drag raced it for ages. He had the 6 speed world record for Supras at one point after he took it from Ryan Woon who ran the WOTM Supra. Superstreet has an old article on the top 5 Supras built and SW’s was #3 or 4 on the list. That car made a fuck ton of power and boost. SW, Peter Blach, And Ryan Woon were all huge drag racing guys back in the early to mid 2000’s.
TheHoonigans you can just google “SW Supra” and a ton of stuff will come up
@@jacksonmiller3242 oh shiiiiit, I knew he looked familiar! Dude's a legit OG. His 6-speed record still stands to this day I'm pretty sure--7.9@189mph. I've still got that Super Street issue hanging around somewhere too.
@@TheHoonigans He's #4 on the list of five greatest Supras ever.
www.superstreetonline.com/features/impp-1010-5-greatest-toyota-supras/
Cant be kikawa's dream car if he thought it was a '78, any good F body man can easily tell the difference between and late and early second gen.
Yeah, that made me lol
Riight
Amen, I cringed when I heard him yell "78?".
@@nigelio3 Yeah I did notice the Grills are from an earlier 2nd gen which confuses things though.
73 Bird grills have a much larger rectangular pattern.
with what they spent on the Build a Pontiac MR1 Indian adventures or Kaufman Block would have been neat.
That thing looks so graceful and majestic in a full drift
This is done so right can't get any better
She's pretty
Nice camaro if it were a ta it would be Pontiac powered
And as far as building nice pocket book.
They should of kept it the 455
Wow I like your Moxie! Long time ago I wanted Camaro but when Drove BLK&BLK 78 TA Pontiac 400 Engine 4sp that was it I went to the Dark Side later Camaro Hello Trans-Am few years later 1985 bought wrecked 76 TA 455 4sp and did real frame off Restoration. Pontiac Experts like Herb Adams, HO Racing ,Nunzi were my go to guys back than and I still have Trans-Am
wow im blown away by how clean the build is!!! you guys do amazing work.. i mean a hole new level or quality work!!! amazing shop inside and out!!!
SW is a legend in the street scene, been racing and has been the fastest for nearly 3 decades. from the vette and trans am era to the Supra vs Viper era with the quickest and fastest 6sp car in the world and the texas mile records to the streets with his UGR stage 3 SL and his ultra clean cars. his Vipers, both hardtop Supras, his targa Supras, his SCs, his BMWs, his Benzes, Lamborghinis, Ferraris, everything.
poor guy on the construction site disappeared
When he said a 78' I think I would have ended the interview
You just KNOW that this video's a good one when Kikawa is smiling for a GOOD MAJORITY of the video. Love seeing this dude happy. Makes my day. :)
man that engine / bay is spectacular. A masterpiece!!!
Everyone knows Kikawa's dream car is a Smokey And The Bandit '78, except him apparently.
Kikawa: "Is that a '78?"
S.W. "No, a '73."
smgdh Kikawa
Smokey and The Bandit was a '77 hehe..
Tullerion 76 with a 77 front clip
I knew the trans am had a possibility of making kikawa somewhat amused, but the yee haw look was definitely unexpected😂
It's now a Camaro
12/10 on the chop scale. It gets down, too. What a Build Breakdown. And what a gorgeous Trans-Am
Such a beauty, A true timeless design
Does it have a 455? Be a lot cooler if it did.
Kodi Wyatt and more torque too!
Mean Green af 🔥
I love that cam - sounds perfect.
My absolute favorite shade of green. Bad-ass. If I was rich, I'd build two identical ones of this car. One to thrash and one to look at.
Wonder who’s going to crash into the hangar first. My money’s on hert or bad daddy braddy
Still Loving the new format.
Man you guys realize that guy is at work. He cant just sit there for like 5 minutes like a break while youre at work. I feel bad for the man. I understand youre at work here too but hell man. Hard working people hot as hell, just trying to get some enjoyment through their day. Shoulda thrown him a t-shirt atleast man. Probably got introuble waiting, i didn’t see him when yall were actually shredding.
the camera only pans there for a couple seconds a few times, but near the end of the video you can see a good 5 or so construction guys watching at least the end of it. I'm sure came running whenever they heard it start up. 8:36
you get distracted very easily.you hold down a job or do you just wander off randomly?
My first car was a 73trans am, 18 and all that power was fun! Sure miss that car! If I had the money this car would be my dream car to build!
what a great job!! I like that its a resto-mod and its not overdone. Classy!
wow I want to bild a tran-am !!!! [HOONIGANS]
get a job,quit drugs and alcohol,get a place of residence then think about the fantasies of life.
Thumbs up if you think this guest has broke 200+MPH on public streets more than any other guest.
billy bynum 100% fact
That's like banging on a supercar lol. You could tell he was genuinely not wanting to and also stoked like a lil kid that he did lol. Thank you S.W. and thanks to you Hoons!!!
Worth every cent.
Disappointed kikawa thought it was a 78 at first though
Doesn’t even look like a 78 lmao
David Stevenson the backs do, I don't think he seen the front of it yet when he said that but I don't care to go back and see lol
@@YeetxBoi saw the side first and the 78 trans am has the pointed front clip the smokey and the bandit style this is the style prior to that 74 is when they went to the pointed style
@@YeetxBoi no, not even. the taillight are different, the chrome bumper was only form 1970-1973, and the rear window and quarters are different...no wrap around window. Also all the aero is shaped different as well
@@YeetxBoi no,they fuicking do not
Y’all evil for making this shredddd 😭
I'm w u. One was enough. I woulda said "once is enough silly rabbit"
Beautiful Trans Am guys love this one thanks for sharing with me
All us Hoonigans appreciate your tire sacrifices. Beautiful car.
3 am upload gang
hey can i see the front of that?
sure!
proceeds to not let him see the front
Damn, that Trans Am is so awesome... My absolute favorite Pontiac... I own a 74 formula and love this Brewster Green, and love this details in perfection at this awesome ride. Well done!!!
xanderR. I own a 76 T/A and would love for mine to be completed in this kind of perfection!
He's really proud of his ARP bolts.
Nicest trams am I've seen
Same.
Better be for $350K.
On average it costs $20-30 more for Pontiac building per part.
This "person" exceeded the costs of putting in a PMD aftermarket engine just trying to make it LOOK PMD.
Slowing destroying what's left of the BETTER Division of GM
he could've went with the recently developed ram air 5 stuff and be DIFFERENT or go to butler performance but no,another fucking ls in a non chevrolet
I dont think ive seen Kikawa this happy before. He was having a blast. 😂
That's the finest Trams Am ever to drive the streets of anywhere. Smokey and the Bandit are crying like babies because of what they had to drive while making the movie. That is the finest craftsmanship in existence!
So $50,000 car with $300,000 worth of bolts? 😂
The only people that question the price are people who don't know just what Detroit Speed can do.
No, the people who question throwing that much money, into a car like this, know that he put about 200K more into it than was necessary. I have seen exact replicas of "Eleanor" mustangs, and the owner only put about 100k into it.
$300,000 for a rebuilt 73 Trans Am... everybody that was around him knew that was a complete fucking mistake.
I thought I heard him say "hand cut washers". What? Who in the hell hand cuts washers?
you are a bit of an oblivious idiot arent you?
Note to Kikawa.
This is why you never buy a new car.
Man!, what a beauty...
Beautiful.
$350,000 and can’t put in a real Pontiac mill? Pfttt!
What is the music song name at 0:22 seconds. Pls someone tell me

yeah let me check all his 300+ songs real quick, they should really start linking the exact tracks... I've been through close to 100 of them and this one hasn't shown up yet.
Capper of All Time
@@discoverychannel1o1 what a legend
Dude, huge props to this guy for ripping that car around. That's one amazingly clean and precise build
Props to him for shredding that car.... probably one of the nicest Classics in the country to be honest
Only noobs puts a chevy in a pontiac
SW is no noob. He's a guy that has enough money to have four of these cars with whatever powertrain he likes. If you've seen the cars he's owned in his lifetime it would be clear, SW can build whatever car he wants. Dude has broken world records in racing. He doesn't have to care what other people would want done to his TA. Someone else will build a TA to please the purists.
$20-$40 more per part for a Aftermarket Pontiac Block vs LS, that he prob spent just to retrofit the LS to fit in this 2nd gen F and mod it to look PMD-sih... because we all haven't seen enough LS engines, #ItsMoreCamaroNow
BAD ASS! Thanks
What a champ for slaying the tyres!👌🤘
could have put S D in front of 455 ?
fanghicheck
-could have put L.S. too
lol
Still should have stayed a 455
Its a transgender bird now Pontiac Camaro
shawn barfield, that much money and effort and then stuff a piece of shit chevy under the hood. total letdown
Shame of the LS. Should've stayed 455
I agree definitely should have stayed the 455
@@shawnbarfield6551 Big heavy lump got no business being in a "road racer for the street resto mod".
A BUTLER PERFORMANCE PONTIAC ENGINE would have been more appropriate for a $350k Trans Am build.... No?
@@mikesanto69 exactly what I was thinking.
Amen Sir
One of my all time fav cars
Favorite Pontiacs ever right here. This is the nicest body style of FB/TA ever.

Out of everything on the car, I love the wheel centre caps the most
