Just wondering who visits this board?
How about everyone listing the year, motor, trans,and other vital stats of their T/A?
Also leave a link to any web sites.
I have a 1978 T/A with a 400 running a Summit 272/282 cam ,'72 intake, Summit headers, Turbo 350 (soon to be 200-4r), and 3.23 gears.

[chas-3]

I have a 1979 Tenth Aniversary Trans Am, completely stock, T/A 6.6, 4 speed, 44K miles. My mom owned the car from 1979 to 1989, I have owned it since.

My other one is a 1969 Trans Am, Ram Air IV, 4 speed, 99K original miles. I have owned this very car twice, from 1982 to 1987 and from 1998 to present. You can see a picture here http://www.spottsperformance.com/gallery2.htm

Its toward the bottom of the page. Paul has yet to put my name on it, but it is the only '69 T/A there.

I have to describe a "useta have". It was a '78 Gold Special Edition, W72 4-speed car with a 3.42 posi. The Q-Jet was reworked and the cat was bypassed. I didn't take it to the track, but from street comparisions it was probably about 14.4s at 95 mph. The drive train was stock. From a 30 mph roll it had a hard time pulling away from my '68 Catalina wagon. I built a 428 for that and added a '65 tri-power.

My car is in pieces but I hope get the resto back underway soon. Life has been getting in the way for about the last year. Goal for the car is to appear 100% stock but run quite a bit better!

Just like the name says, I've got my second 78 Gold SE. Sold my first one over 15 years ago after a deer demolished the front end one night. Always regretted selling it, finally found another Gold SE and rescued it out of this guy's field for $1000. It still has the gold t-tops,original windshield with the gold tint at the top,no tears or burns in the console or seats,and the guy even gave me the original 15x8 wheels with it(had them in boxes in his barn!). I'll have to replace the rear quarters,trunk floor,carpet,door panels,etc. Non-running when I got it, motor will get plenty of TLC from me, just now getting ready to start restoration on whole car. I'm looking forward to learning more from everybody online here at PY.com.

[78 GHOST]

The "78 Ghost" name is from my PHS documented '78 T/A 6.6 no T tops. The car was all original in Jan. '01 when I got it with 51,000 miles. It is white with the light blue interior. The interior is original and the plastic was redone last summer. This is my driver and I drive it every week about 600 miles [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

It doesn't have any rust anywhere and is a truly great car to drive. Sporty with good power and gets about 22 MPG on the road.

Its a lightly optioned car with roll up windows, A/C, Cruise, and thats about all.

Pre-super tuneup, 16.6 at 91 MPH. -Matt
