so i bought the 1995 trans am :) THIS THING HAULS ***! :)

its a one owner, originally from hawaii ( i kind of didnt believe this at first, but when i got hte car and all the records and found a hawaii pontiac dealership business card in it, well that cleared all doubts) 84,900 miles 1 owner, married couple in their late 40s/early 50s, the husband being in the DEPT OF DEFENSE! lol... the sticker on the window even said so....

the car is completely bone stock, the engine bay was semi dirty, but not like neglected, just not a person who would clean the engine on a regular basis.. i did the tire shine trick and it came out good

TTOPS ROCK :)

there are a few little things being a 9 year old car but are all minor... the power antenna doesnt work, the motor moves but th shaft just stays up... the headlight motor on the drivers side makes a grinding noise afer the light goes down, im told its just a $30 gear... and there are 2 small dings on the pass side from a grocery cart... but other than that the car is damn near mint! i installed my mp3 player in it, because tape decks are so 90s LOL, i dont think the dash had ever been apart.

heres some pics of the car i took at an fbody meet yesterday

im still undecided as to what to do with the sc.

Sweet. Sound like you got a nice car. I own a '97 T/A. Here's a great website for info on these cars. www.f-bodyhideout.com

thanks for the info...i have the typical grinding motor gear noise, which the previous owner said could be the motor... but i think ill try this free fix first and see if it works..

As luck would have it my headlights have been good. Haven't ran into that problem ..yet. When I get to my home pc I have alot more links to T/A stuff. I found a site that sells steel gear replacements for the headlights so you never have the problem again.

One place I found for a turbo is ststurbo.com. I'm looking into getting one for my car soon as I stroke the engine :) According to the reviews, alot of ppl that have used one love them.
