Car: 1985 Tans Am Roadster Engine: 305 Carb Transmission: 5 Speed | 1985 Trans Am Vert 305 5Spd
Hello All!
I am new to this Community. I have been browsing around this and a couple other forums to educate myself on the 3rd Gen Trans Am Convertible. Since early June I have been keeping my eye on a Black/Black Pontiac Trans Am Convertible. And last weekend I finally took the plunge!
Some details of the car:
1985 305 5Speed 55,000 Miles Black/Black Bought New in Fremont, CA
Conversion was done in Bremen, IN by Autoform (so it's a lovely Roadster!)
The car runs Excellent! I just did my first ever doughnut run yesterday evening! 
I bought the car from the original owner's Family. Technically, according to the DMV I am the 3rd owner.
Unfortunately it does not look like they put a conversion number on the sticker, but it is dated to June 1985. Car was built May 1985.
I just fixed the hood shocks last nite, and my next project will be to restore the original Performance Sound Radio. I at least want the Tape Player to work so I can plug in an MP3 player. The speakers are blown, but if I turn down the bass it sounds great. So if anyone wants to save me the trouble and sell me a working unit, give me a price.
I will post more pictures in the next week or 2.
Finally, many thanks to everyine providing me with enough information to let me make up my mind at make one of the best purchases I have ever made!
