What a knockout! Butler Built engine, overdrive automatic, 4 wheel
disc, plus custom paint and custom interior! This Pro Touring Trans
Am tribute car was built to be driven and enjoyed. It was also well
maintained; we have an invoice dated 02/05/2024 for $10,585 in
service. No disappointments here, just a fantastic vehicle that
won't drain the 401k!
EXTERIOR: What a pretty paint job! The Cameo white paint was
applied with great detail and polished to a smooth and reflective
finish. In the right lighting you can catch little hints of a blue
pearl sheen. The stripes were applied under the clear coat and are
virtually smooth to the touch. Looking down the side of the body it
is nice and straight with smooth contours and crisp lines. All the
panels have been painstakingly aligned with consistent gaps that
are definitely above average. The doors close easily with minimal
effort. All the glass is crystal clear plus the rubber seals and
fuzzy strips were replaced. The Trans Am hood, scoops and spoilers
really enhance the profile. It was upgraded with high intensity
headlights. The front grille and facia are in fantastic shape. All
the chrome has been refinished and has a beautiful shine. It's
sitting on a pair if polished aluminum mags by American Racing that
are wrapped in BFGoodrich radial tires.
INTERIOR: Super comfortable interior with high back bucket seats
that recline too. There is a very practical center console with a
carbon fiber finish, storage compartment, overdrive automatic
shifter and Kenwood touchscreen stereo. The rear seat is covered
with matching upholstery. The headliner, rear view mirror, sun
visors, dash pad, gauge bezel, gauges, vents, and door panels have
all been replaced. It also has a tilt steering column and we
installed a totally sweet leather wrapped wheel. 6x9 speakers were
added to the rear shelf and the dome light is working too.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This thing runs fantastic, so nice and smooth.
Under the hood is a Butler built engine, they are known for their
consistent performance and turnkey reliability. It's flanked by a
set of long tube headers and spark plug wire holders. Topped off
with a Weber carburetor, Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, fuel
pressure regulator, HEI distributor, and MSD digital 6al ignition
box. It's also equipped with air conditioning, power steering, and
power brakes. The master cylinder and booster were upgraded to a
chrome unit with a proportioning valve. All the lines and hoses
have been replaced. Fresh looking radiator. The underside of the
hood, fenderwells and firewall are neatly painted satin black.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid and jamb are painted body
color. The weatherstrip was replaced. Under the rubber mat is
insulation then solid metal with a neatly applied spatter finish
paint. It comes with a full size spare tire mounted on a matching
rim and a jack assembly too.
UNDERSIDE: The front end steering and suspension looks like it has
been rebuilt. It was also upgraded with a fatter sway bar and frame
connectors to tie the front to the back and prevent twisting.
Further upgrades include disc brakes at all four wheels. Out back
the shocks look recent and it has traction bars also. It's
retrofitted with an electric fuel pump and inline filter mounted in
back by the tank. The dual exhaust system has a crossover pipe and
Flowmaster mufflers. Looking up at the Butler 400 performance
engine it's nice and clean. It was upgraded with a 700R4 overdrive
automatic trans that has an aluminum pan and a GForce trans brace.
The 10 bolt rear end has an aluminum girdle cover. The floors
appear to be solid and rust free with neatly applied black
paint.
SERVICE: After our thorough inspection we replaced the glove box
light assembly, adjusted the steering gearbox, tightened exhaust
clamps, and replaced the steering wheel.
Only about 600 Trans Am's were made in 1969. Today on the market
they range in price from $100,000-$200,000. Save big with this high
quality tribute that's just a small fraction of the price!
For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the
highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide
is my professional opinion based on my experience with these
vehicles. However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a
personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always
available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is
to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase
the car and share our team's insights. **Our cars are displayed
within a museum setting. If you are interested in a specific
vehicle, please schedule an appointment with a salesperson to view
it. Without an appointment, there is an admission fee to enter the
showroom. If you decide to purchase a car, your admission will be
refunded, and you'll receive a one-year museum membership.
