When I was 19 years old somehow I landed a job a Cadillac Pontiac and Buick dealer in 1970 .not knowing a hell of a lot I did all the jobs that none of the seasoned wrenches wanted to do like heater cores water pumps rear axle seals brake shoes coil springs clutch and pressure plates ... Then there was my favorite servicing brand new cars like 455 Grand sport Buick 4 speed Muncie with a Hurst shifter 455 GTO Hurst 4 on the floor buckets tac on the hood then here come the judge oh wow ... I'm only 19 toss me the keys , I'll be good .. I'll guarantee you there was at least 5,000 MI of Goodyear wide oval rubber missing off your rear tires by the time you got your car.. even at 2 door coupe DeVille 472 V8 was fast ... Did you know a Buick Opel GT the ones that look like a baby Corvette will do 125 mph after I got done tuning one on a sun machine ? If not well you do now don't you hehe . At 5:00 time to punch the clock. My little blonde hot rod gal waiting on me and Mel wilson begging me to work over and service this special order bird this guy paid cash for 6 months ago .. but Mel look what's standing there waiting for the same thing ! He said I know and trade you in a heart beat. But I promise this guy who paid me $14 gees for it .. I say WHAT ? There it was all by itself on top of an 18-wheeler car hauler with a big Pontiac dust cover... After the unwrapping and unloading I looked at the window sticker and the damn motor was $4700 option .. I've never seen anything like it before or ever again.. I don't know what it was all aluminum engine steel crank and rods double pumper 850 Holley setting on an aluminum hi rise 4-speed Rock crusher 12 bolt 411 posi weird looking ground effects 455 SD firebird trans Am 1971 .. this should have been against the new EPA laws but later was said only 300 were ever made.. did I floor board it , did I shit my pants in a blue cloud of wide oval tire smoke . Was I shaking so hard I started crying like a little baby .. snap out of it bitch we haven't even begun to horrify ourself this is a whole new ball game .. I calmed down enough to get out of town to my top end testing zone of my mandatory 1/4 mile test and stood it in sweat dripping off my forehead as I entered 4th tires still spinning .. OMFG take me home lord ... What was that ?
@@md_randoms2429Hey the 400s and the 403s weren’t anything to write home about. When they dropped the 455HO in 74 I think it went down hill from there.
Years ago I had a trans am that looked just like that except for the hood. It was a turbo with a whopping 210 hp. Looked great but couldn’t get out of its own way.
I had a Brown 1982 turbo Trans Am with T tops, a few days after I graduated from high school in 1992, my dad gave the car away, and he also gave away my 1971 camero that I had rebuilt in my sophomore and Junior years😢.
Agreed. I know they're supposed to perform better in all ways, but I just dont like the modern Cameros look. I cant look at one and not see a Transformer. And I cant look at the person driving and not think they are pretending to be a Transformer when they drive LMFAO
I had a 79 with the 301. Major slug but didnt care. I loved that car. I hated driving that oven in the summer since the ac was broken. At no speed did the cab cool down........
Man i remember when that model came out. A guy parents across town bought him one and he was way younger than me. They also had bought him a Black Kawasaki Gpz1000 Ninja.
Love these trans Am when they first came out I remember when they first came out and I used to love the one that had baby blue rims and it was a baby blue color trans Am beautiful car with baby blue rims and baby blue color and baby blue interior. Came right out of the factory like that.
the design of that car never goes out of style to me it always looks cool
Yeah definitely 💯
Mean and clean
Big factor is also Smokey and the Bandit -nostalgia (for me also)
I saw this car in a game and absolutely loved it and only now I am getting to know it's name
One of the baddest cars on the planet.

He should have let all that traffic pass, so we all could see him let them eagles fly. Sound damn good!!
These 77-81 trans ams are so majestic
80-81’s are turds tho. You could only get the 301 and 301 turbo
@@md_randoms2429 doesn’t bother me. Still more fun than most cars today.

The iconic phoenix on the hood. The original bandit
Beautiful ! They didn’t run like that new ! Very nice ! 🇺🇸👍
now THAT is a mullet missile.
Mo powa babeh
@@Disciple_of_God. fahk yeah!!!!
The sound of a twin turbo whistling ❤
Damn that thing has the perfect stance!!
This car was reviewed on hoonigan autofocus with Larry Chen, crazy build over 1000hp
It sounds like shit
Thanks bro. I looked it up and watched it. Soo badass
Those wheels are SICK !!!!
Love the way he pulled out slowly,straightens out to line up, then hits the gas
He made an inverse mustang
Like an airplane
Yeah man , that was class experience in motion not stupid mustang waiting on a wrecker 😆😆😆
My mom drove a 73 T.A. !!!!!!! I MISS THAT CAR
Yessss whit 455 ,what a nice car👌👍
I once had a ‘92 T.A, baddest car I’ve ever driven.
@@vincenttaylor8553just wait till you drive a 78 one
that 7.4 liter beast of an engine 🤤
This is America, ain’t no such thing as liters
didn't those come with 400ci...not 454?
it's a 6.6 I believe
6.6
@@tombrown5586yup yup, 400 6.6L
Goddamit... that's a nice iron piece you got there man, congrats!!!
Not mine, but It’s a beauty
East bound and down
Years ago I had a trans am that looked just like that except for the hood. It was a turbo with a whopping 210 hp. Looked great but couldn’t get out of its own way.
Love the wheels. Dad had em in gold on his red Trans Am 👍.
He was smart to wait until he was straight on to let it rip… all those that try and rip it while still turning are just waiting for an accident!
That firebird sick tho
I love how it almost did a burnout even before the turbos kicked in lol
Nothing like good ole American Muscle 💪🏾💪🏾
Turbos spooling up!
Stance, wheels, Sound, Performance is just awesome 🎉❤
POwer is there but will never hook with those short stiff sidewalls
Love the he was careful on the initial turn. Beautiful car 😍
I also like the International scout behind the transAmm
Absolute Perfection !
But that scout behind it though 🥵🥵🥵
Is it a scout? I thought it was a Bronco. I think I have some footage of her. I’ll post it later. And it sure was money !!
@@PapapandaFilms Definitely a Scout II 👌
I always get them confused. But loved them the same.
And body notice the Honda CRV behind the scout? Gorgeous....
@@NigahPlease30lol
simply unbelievable, just unbelievable...Lord have mercy.
HAD THIS CAR AND THE BRONCO BEHIND IT,NOT ACTUALY THESE BUT EXACTLY LIKE INCLUDING COLORS💯✌️LOVED THE FUN HAD IN BOTH! SMOKE THEM SNEAKERS BROTHER
NOT A BRONCO! That is the beloved International Harvester Scout II!
Should modernized Trans Am like Mustang, Challenger , Ford GT, Corvette. .
And modernized Pontiac aka knight rider too 😎🤟
They have some nice concepts
Agree, BUT.... a car company has to exist first before they can modernize anything!!!
I had a 1980 trans am, miss it. But this one is a beast! Love those aftermarket snowflakes wheels. Awesome!
Do you think those are 20" ?
@@carlosswab8451 not sure but those wheels are awesome. But they're not cheap, last I checked they were above $300.00 EACH!
@@carlosswab8451I think they are 18s. But it wouldn’t be an issue for then to run off some 20s if someone ordered them.
@@monroefive-o40 17s look perfect. Just enough sidewall.
20s...never on any older car Id own just too frigging big
Omg!!! That's my dream car to that is all I see on your channel, great job
And it’s 1,000 HP 🔥
Esa maquina tubo mi hermano
ماشاء الله تبارك الرحمن 🤍
💥☠️💥🤣🤣 Grandpa got a brand new badge.... all the tricks under the sleeve
what a beautiful ta. nice looking car
I think so too
Love the 1979 trans am had a 79 with t top's 6.6 403olds the worst thing I did was sell that car dumb ass move
Absolutely beautiful
Fire bird my all time favourite i had once for 6 years
That aunt know real bandit transam
I had a Brown 1982 turbo Trans Am with T tops, a few days after I graduated from high school in 1992, my dad gave the car away, and he also gave away my 1971 camero that I had rebuilt in my sophomore and Junior years😢.
Sorry to hear that man
I’ve owned a T/A and a Cuda in my life I’ve had a good run…
My dream car as a kid. I wanted a Tatt a Gat and a black Trans Am with the gold bird on the hood. Haven’t got the trans am yet.
Bye bye baby!!!! King of the road
Fantastic looking car. Love that thing.
The wheel and tire setup is absolute..perfection .

Cursive emojis😭

Thats probably the coolest thing i have ever seen in YT
POWER
🔥🔥🔥
That "gawdamn" at the end says it all.
That was from the deepest part of my soul 😁
トランザム❤❤❤❤❤ナイトライダー❤️大好き❤
Looks like year one trans am , from Fast Furious 4
The fast and furious one was a 77-78, the front nose changed in 79. I prefer the 77-78 Bandit front nose. Bad ass car even still!
Nice Scout.
Are those larger versions of the original wheel style? The stance and the wheels look so good on it.
Yep. Those are the famous snowflake wheels. Year One offers them in 17 and 18 inches...
I want that blue Scout 💙
This is mine. 👉🏼✨👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That’s a whole lot of steel dam!!! That car moves
love how he waited untill he was straight to play. 😌
Sick🤘🤘🤘🤘
American muscle 💪🏁🏆🇺🇸
This smokes the smokie and all of Bandit😂😂❤❤❤
that's a nice TA
Beautiful trans am
That's one funky Screamin' Chicken 😎👍
Something about the beauty of this car when kept clean they look so nice
She mean as hell
Wow, this spec is perfect... Great build!👌👌
Its such a beautiful machine! Love it!!
I had a 77 6.6 motor awsome
Goddamn I love cars bruh 😂 I can’t get enough of ts
That is the best TA ever
I like the Scout that’s behind the T/A …….
I think I posted a video about her if Im not mistaken.
My dad used to have one just like this back in the day when I was a little kid miss it
Beautiful ride. Those big tires look so nice.
Bro nailed the wheels
I love 1975's. Kind of sculpture.
Everyday after school in 1978
That’s a beautiful bird love the mini tube in the rear perfect 👍
He had the good sense to point it straight ahead so as to not "mustang" it
Nice
Run ol bandit run
Chulada de carro
Que belleza
Definition for Beautiful days back in the days. Am 70s myself.
To me trans ams are one of the ultimate looking muscle cars. Chevy needs to return cameros with modern form and shape like that
Agreed. I know they're supposed to perform better in all ways, but I just dont like the modern Cameros look. I cant look at one and not see a Transformer. And I cant look at the person driving and not think they are pretending to be a Transformer when they drive LMFAO
badass ride
Beast
Both my lifelong dream vehicles back to back
I had a 79 with the 301. Major slug but didnt care. I loved that car. I hated driving that oven in the summer since the ac was broken. At no speed did the cab cool down........
👍
Man i remember when that model came out. A guy parents across town bought him one and he was way younger than me. They also had bought him a Black Kawasaki Gpz1000 Ninja.
Mack 5. Just broke the sound barrier.
The TA is definitely sweet but the IH Scout II behind it, Yeeesss!
Beautiful bird
That is gorgeous
What a dream to have one that looks exactly like that but also handles, grips, stops, etc.
One of the coolest cars ever built. Only in America. 😊
Love these trans Am when they first came out I remember when they first came out and I used to love the one that had baby blue rims and it was a baby blue color trans Am beautiful car with baby blue rims and baby blue color and baby blue interior. Came right out of the factory like that.
Still a great looking car👌🏼
