1978 Pontiac Trans Am Special Edition running ( Smokey & The Bandit )
My '78 Trans Am 400 CID 4 BBL V8, 200-R4 auto transmission with overdrive and a 12 bolt rear main wth Richmond 4:11 gears. Built in Norwood, OH, it was shipped to Atlanta, GA and spent all of her life there until I bought it in August '08. My son Spencer and I flew down to Atlanta and drove her back - boy was that a blast! The registration is the same as in Smokey & The Bandit. The rims were reconditioned perfectly and the brand new tires have less than 50 miles. The interior will be completely restored by the end of September (new vinyl seats, door panels and bezel are all that's needed).

1978 Trans Am 360 doughnut burnout in super tight space !!!
Only a trained stunt man should try something this crazy! Notice there is a tow truck in front, a Tahoe behind, and a telephone pole across the street. Plus, only a WS6 Trans Am with a 400 pontiac and tight rear end can pull a controlled 360 burnout in such a tight space with total control of the car at all times!

Caught on Camera - Fishing for Hummers
http://www.traviskraft.com Retrieving a Hummer from the bottom of a frozen lake in North Dakota...
Uncle Frank was out ice fishing with his family and they drove over a part of the lake that has warm springs under it(there were no markings or warnings) and the front end went through the ice. Frank and his family were able to get out quickly before the entire thing went through the ice narrowly escaping.
Thankfully no one was hurt but it was a close call.
2 days later he had to return to get the Hummer from the bottom of the lake. It is the law that you must retrieve the vehicle. It was covered by insurance.
We had no idea how to get a vehicle from the bottom of a frozen lake so I went along to document it. It was quite a process as you will see.
I am used to living in Los Angeles so I had a lot of trouble being in that extreme cold.
Grandpa was drilling holes to ice fish while we waited and he worked up quite a sweat.
