- A one of a kind Pontiac trans Am, modified by the original owner to be faster, better handling and stopping. Unique modifications, advice from herb Adams and access to an aerospace Skunkworks all conspire to create a truly awesome Trans Am!
Restomods are the best! Beautiful car.
I just bought a BEAUTIFUL ‘77 Black and Gold Trans-Am. It was born with the Olds 403,but now has an upgraded LS2 in it. I also have the Year One Snowflakes on her. I’ve wanted one of these ever since I was 10 years old after seeing “Smokey and the Bandit” for the first time. I STILL can’t believe that it’s in my garage! GREAT VIDEO! 🤠
The underhood aftermarket bracing could be purchased from Herb Adams' VSE company back in the day. He installed these as part of his "Fire Am" package.
That is a very nice car and very well kept. I would like to mention some of those parts like the chassis braces and rear battery mount and possibly the roll bar some of the things that Herb Adams (former Pontiac Engineer) design for the "Fire Am" He sold kits as well if one wanted to modify their own trans am back when these cars were new. He proved them by running a Trans Am in the 79 24 hrs of Daytona.
Why did the car rev so much went so slow?
The video was slowed down...you can see the people in the background moving slowly...
Looks like gasmonkey version ??
Oh great, how many of my tax dollars paid for those multi million dollar “Skunkworks” manufactured improvements??
