Dyno testing and tuning a 1976 Bandit Trans Am
After the paint and decals, it was time to get this hot rod tuned up. I took it to the best muscle car guy in the Denver Metro area. Jay can squeeze every horse out of this all stock car without modifying anything. it's still all numbers matching, and after this test he's already gotten me another 38 hp. to play with.
1979 Pontiac Trans Am - TA 1/4 mile G-Tech runs and having some fun
This is my 79 TA - it has 230,000 mile on the original 403 Olds motor and its turbo 350 trans. I've added performance parts to both the engine and trans but the heads have never been off the block and trans has never been rebuilt. It does have edelbrock performer cam and intake, Dynomax headers, dual Exhaust, shift kit in the trans, 3.42:1 rear gear, welded sub-frame connections, and an electric black-max fan. Plus Re-tuned Q-jet carb

You are viewing a low mileage REAL L-75 455 Trans Am. Just 39,000 from new, this unrestored, and original paint example is the standard to which others will be judged. It is like going back in time 30 years as the factory "flaws" are intact. You will see the body color overspray from the factory on the floorboards and elsewhere. The factory undercoat is present in the wheel wells. The trunk compartment finish is as new and will be used to judge restored examples of this era, as will the shade of carousel red and how it is applied. The underside of this car is clean and dry and in fantastic condition. Pride of ownership shows in how clean and intact this 1 of 7,099 presents itself today. I shake my head every time I look at this car and wonder how it survived 34 years and still be in this condition. This time machine will put a smile on your face as you remember how things were in the day.
