1980 Trans Am

This is a car I really regret selling. I bought this car off of my cousin for $1000. All it needed was new pushrods, a driveshaft and a little love. The car was non running when I received it but it had a lot of go fast parts already on it. The engine, transmission and 12-bolt differential were all of my cousin's '72 Nova SS, that's why the original drive shaft didn't fit, it was 4 inches too short. Here are the specks of the car.

Engine: 1972 350 Chevy 4-bolt mains 0.30 over, Comp Cams 280H magnum cam, 10.5:1 flat top pistons, 1967 Corvette "fuelie" heads large valve, Performer RPM intake w/ holley 750cfm Double Pumper later to be changed to a Holley Street Dominator tunnel ram w/ 2 Holley 600cfm carbs. Electronic ignition and electric fuel pump. Approx. 450 Horsepower. This car roared.

Transmission: 1972 Turbo-Hydromatic 350 (TH350)

Differential: 1972 Nova 12-Bolt w/ 4.11 gears

Other goodies of the car include power windows an trunk, 15x6" Cragar SS rims in the front and 15x10" Cragar SS reverse rims in the back. Fireglo orange paint with white stripes. Chrome valve covers and air cleaners.

Now for the pics.
