Vehicle Description

This is one of the hottest cars on the market- 1978 Trans Am and of course it needs to be Bandit black! This one has vin # matched motor and trans. It has been off the frame restored.

EXTERIOR: It doesn't get any more desirable than the black and gold Bandit package. Factory black- code 19. This car has a super clean, straight body. Panels and scoops fit nice, rubber bumpers are excellent. The paint has a polished gloss black finish front to back. It has the complete correct gold decal kit. The gold grills look new. The shaker hood is not cut or modified. Windshield looks new. Has optional glass t-tops. Door jambs are painted real nice, weatherstrips and sill plates have been replaced. New BFG tires on 15 inch snowflake wheels.

INTERIOR: Freshly restored. Seats have been reupholstered, the console is excellent- no cigarette burns or holes drilled. Dash area is clean, not cut or drilled.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It has a vin # matched Pontiac 400 motor. It appears to be completely stock- complete air cleaner and snorkel, vacuum lines properly ran etc. Everything is cleaned up and painted nicely too. Features include air conditioning, cruise control, power steering and brakes. The air was updated to R134 freon.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Very clean and complete. Has mat, collapsible spare with air bottle, jack and t-top bags. Paint is nice, has decals and new weatherstrip.

UNDERSIDE: It was seperated from the frame for restoration. The floors are really clean original metal sprayed in primer like it left the factory. The lower inner 1/4s are clean original metal. Everything under this car was restored- every bolt, clip, bushing. The front end was rebuilt, shocks replaced. Brakes, lines, hoses were replaced, etc. E-brake assembly is complete. Bottom of motor is clean, new starter, has flywheel cover. Correct exhaust that splits into dials with splitter tips. Has original posi rear and vin # matched turbo 350 trans.
