    Just finished a restoration, it was taken down to a bare shell. We have 10s of thousands of dollars in invoices. It goes without mentioning, it's gorgeous! The colors, wheels, and that '78 front end are the ticket!
    EXTERIOR: The body was taken down to a shell and sandblasted. New full quarter panels were installed. Repainted its original Martinique blue, this beautiful color was only available for one year. All new decals including the screaming chicken on the hood Hurst hatch glass t-tops. New in 2023 17 in snowflake wheels with performance tires.
    INTERIOR: The door jambs are painted slick, the cards are new, and the weather stripping looks like it's been replaced. The seats have been re-cushioned and upholstered. The machined turned trim dash looks really nice as well as the gauges. The clock is not functional. The dash pad looks really nice, not split or cracked. The carpeting was replaced, and the center console refinished. There's a nice kenwood CD player that was added. The seatbelts look new, and we ordered new ashtrays for the rear. There’s also an aftermarket cloth headliner. It also has the formula steering wheel with tilt column.
    ENGINE COMPARTMENT: VIN number matching 400 motor that’s been hopped up. It has a comp cam, pushrods, and roller lifters. The heads were taken down and rebuilt with a valve job, resurfacing, and new valve seals. The inner fenders are new, the wiring harness is new as well as the alternator. Cruise control is still there as well.
    TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The inside trunk lid and jambs are painted slick; the weather stripping looks new. It comes with the original radio, there’s an extra body molding piece. The trunk looks all clean and original and painted black.
    UNDERSIDE: Underneath is restored, it practically looks new. It has the special handling package. The body was off the subframe. The front end was completely disassembled, painted, and rebuilt. Replaced bushings, ball joints and upgraded coil over adjustable shocks. The front is tied to the back with Hotchkiss frame connectors. In the back it has new leaf springs, bushings, and shocks. Great sounding Pypes Street Pro dual exhaust with stainless X-Pipe and mufflers. It also has the correct splitter chrome tips. Fuel tank looks new. It has disc brakes in front, new stainless lines. The floors are restored in a smooth semi gloss black, there's no rust.
    SERVICE: We inspected the car and repaired the reverse lights, charged the a/c, and gave it a front end alignment.
    This is a turnkey get in and go true muscle car! Taking it out on just our test drive gained tons of thumbs up and people rolling their windows down to take pictures. Don’t miss out on this nicely restored 1 year option only paint, and best looking late 70’s T/A.
    A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year membership.

    Exterior is gorgeous. My roommate had this year and color. Interior is good but that steering column would drive me crazy until I could restore it.

    This was posted one day ago and I'm just now seeing this I am shocked that it has not been sold yet. And once there is a stunning Trans Am in my all-time favorite color and this looks like it's bad to the bone outstanding to stare at and as usual there's no luck here for me as I do not have the finances that I wish I had to purchase this. But it's still all good because I know this one will go to a good home to someone who will that will love it.

    Looks great. If that’s a 78 it has 77 Trans Am decals. Why are the driver and passenger seat belts/shoulder harness missing. I had a 77 T/A.

    Mine was a '79 Nocturne Blue (403 Olds engine) with a custom blue jean rivet mark on the hood, which was applied by a girl named Kim (last name redacted). I was mad, but she was so stinkin' cute, it would've been like yelling at a puppy that tinkled on the carpet.

    Gorgeous car but I wonder why Pontiac didn't give it a more exciting shifter like Oldsmobile did with the Hurst shifters.

      So. I'm in the market, they mentioned it and I was hoping they would address the issue. I can totally understand your comment if you didn't add the ''GTFO'' comment. That was uncalled for Mr. Brooks the keyboard troll.@@brianbrooks6666

    • @VoloMuseumAutoSales
      @VoloMuseumAutoSales  Před 7 měsíci

      We already sold this one so the price is no longer listed. You could probably expect 12-16mpg city driving, depending on the driving. Maybe low 20s highway if you are good.

      That is usually the previous owners choice we got the vehicle from. We try not to change person preference items like that.

    @MarkRoberts-bj2me Před měsícem

    Why oh why do knuckleheads bastardize one of the most iconic models Detroit ever designed. This car obviously was not factory equipped with T-Tops since they would have been Fisher. After the W72 package T-Tops were the most important option considering most buyers opted for the WS6 Performance Package with their Poncho 400.
