The odometer reads 31,754, which represents the actual mileage on
this Pontiac Trans Am Ram Air III. Options for this 1970 1/2
Pontiac Trans Am include: AM/FM Radio, Power Brakes, Power
Steering, Seat Belts, Vinyl Interior, Raised White Letter Radial
Tires, and Rally Wheels. Powering this 70.5' Trans Am is the
numbers matching 400 CID Ram Air III V8 engine, which produces 335
horsepower. The original 4 speed manual transmission transfers the
power to the rear end as smooth as butter. Almost everything is
still original, all the way down to the hose clamps and battery
cables. All fluids and filters were replaced during an extensive
service in 2013. Every effort was made to preserve the originality
during the service, including the left manifold being removed,
planed, and reinstalled with a fresh gasket. The original brakes
and front wheel bearings were also serviced, being disassembled,
cleaned, and reassembled with new brake pads on the front disc
brakes. The original Polar White paint, blue center stripe, and
decals show some signs of aging, including some checking and a
little surface rust in spots. There are no holes in any panels, and
for it being original, the 46 year old paint and body looks pretty
darn good. The blue vinyl interior and seat backs received a
thorough cleaning and or refinishing, along with the dash, door
panels, console, and seat belts. This Trans Am Ram Air III has been
owned by the same individual since July 1970, and comes with the
original Pontiac Protect-O-Plate and owner's manual. Pontiac
produced almost 3196 Trans Am in for 1970. These are known as 1970
1/2 models due to a labor strike that delayed the release of the
Trans Am. Of those 3,196 Trans Ams, 3,108 were built with the 400
CID Ram Air III V8 engine, and just 1,769 came equipped with a 4
speed manual transmission. This is an extremely rare opportunity to
own one of just 1,769 cars produced in 1970, and possibly one of a
handful of survivor cars that are still road worthy today. To view
