83 TA ready for winter-Interior/Exterior

It’s been a good driving season but it’s time to be parked for the winter! Got it all shined up and covered. Hopefully the winter goes quick!

The original floor mats are out of the car to keep them as new and replaced with Lloyd mats!

Mint! Quick question about my 83. Gold decal on mine is on the nose, not the hood like yours. Is the hood the correct location? Possible the PO stuck it in the wrong place...

Thanks so much! Yeah the bird decal should be on the hood, mine is original paint and decals. Your car looks great! Love the black 82 and 83s!

We have our clubs fall color tour this weekend, but the days of enjoying my T/A are numbered for 2022.

What cover is that you have there?

Fall color run sounds fun! The car cover is a Coverking Satin Stretch custom fit cover. It’s a great cover, super soft!

Beautiful Trans Am! I'm getting ready to put mine away soon too, mother nature blessed western Pa with a nice weekend though so I'll have it out again tomorrow.

I'd love to get a light cover like that for mine.

I just added some Fall Color Tour photos to my car's thread HERE.
