Motors Charlotte and we'll hook you up with a great car like this
awesome Pontiac Trans Am!
PARALLEL BANDIT
Leaving GM's famous Van Nuys manufacturing facility as a legitimate
W-code Trans Am, this striking resto-mod has been fully stripped
and treated to a 2-year, ground-up restoration that was completed
in late 2016. That rebirth included a glowing coat of Pewter Silver
2-stage, which was detailed with brilliant "PONTIAC and "TRANS AM"
decals. And those decals look great spliced with custom-airbrushed
Screaming Chicken call-outs. At the front of the car, custom,
repositioned grilles hang LED parking lamps and Chevrolet C/K
headlights between a vivid arrowhead and aftermarket fog lamps.
Behind those grilles, a great looking "T/A-LS" branded Shaker
anchors tinted glass beneath brushed stainless trim. At the sides
of that hood, familiar wheel spoilers frame custom fender vents,
painted mirrors and fifth generation Corvette door handles. And at
the back of the car, a rounded D80 trunk wing aligns sequential
taillights above polished side-splitter exhaust.
T/A-LS
Lift the car's dramatic hood and you'll find a potent Vortec 5300
small block that'll provide miles of reliable power! Up top, a
polished Spectre air tube fronts a subtle Edelbrock throttle body,
which fronts a proven LS1 intake. That intake feeds aluminum 241
heads, which weave polished Trans Am valve covers between hot MSD
coil packs and sleeved MSD plug wires. Beneath those heads, a cast
iron block, honed and acid dipped during the engine's 2014 rebuild,
plays well with a GM bottom end and a Lingenfelter Performance cam.
Spent gasses are jettisoned through compact shorty headers. And an
aluminum radiator wears a polished overflow, corrugated hoses and
an electric puller fan. Aesthetically, the engine bay looks
fantastic, with a massaged, body-matched firewall complementing
braced, body-matched fenders. And thoughtful detailing includes a
polished Mr. gasket breather, Eddie Motorsports hood supports and
quality Aeromotive fuel components.
A DRIVER'S CAR
At the bottom of this Trans Am, a fully restored chassis is no
stranger to miles of all-weather fun! In the middle of those proven
bones, a tough 4L60E 4-speed sends power to a familiar GM 10-bolt.
Below that stellar powertrain, a lowered suspension combines a
powder-coated subframe with a beefy rear sway bar and quality
Bilstein shocks. Turns come courtesy of GM power steering. A
polished master cylinder cinches two Wilwood calipers around vented
rotors, and two GM calipers around drilled rotors. Aluminized
exhaust pipes a deep roar through rowdy Magnaflow mufflers. And at
the corners of those tubes, modern Snowflakes spin requisite red
birds inside two 255/45ZR17 BF Goodrich g-Force Sports and two
275/40ZR17 BF Goodrich g-Force Sports.
MODERN MODDED
Open this Pontiac's massive doors and you'll find a cozy custom
interior that's a great mix of modern amenities and classic style.
The clean cockpit begins with tall Procar buckets that feature
unique, body-matched vinyl. In front of those seats, a massaged
dash hangs a custom, engine-turned instrument panel behind vivid
Speedhut telemetry, a handy USB port and controls for modern air
conditioning. Below those seats, rich carpet floats Trans Am themed
floor mats around a molded console that's finished with a factory
shifter. Opposite that console, custom door panels seat big kick
speakers, juiced by a modern Kenwood CD player, in front of factory
power windows and factory power door locks. In front of the driver,
a tilting column spins a leather-wrapped Formula Steering Wheel.
And behind the passengers, a carpeted trunk stashes a JL Audio amp
and JL Audio subwoofer beneath crisp deck speakers.
