A new spanish member!

Hello friends!

I'd like to introduce myself to your nice community. My name is Daniel and I'm from Spain. I have a third generation (1986) Pontiac Trans Am WS6. It's a very nice car... and it's very dificult to see one of them in my country, so when I drive it all people look at me

I show in these images some pictures of my car:



I hope you like it... it's a really great car...

Cheers!

Hello mate! Don't wait anymore, it's a really nice car, buy the one you have seen for $600... in Spain these cars are very expensive because here we can't see them easily. I bought the mine for about $10000 the last year, and everybody here told me that I found a cheap unit.

Cheers!

Yes, if I would have bought it in USA I'd have saved a lot of money, but I didn't find a bit of time for go to United States and look some cars... and here's an added problem with the "Euro4" specifications... if I buy a foreigner car which doesn't have the Euro4 homologation I won't can register and drive it in my country, so I had to buy a Trans Am which is already registered in Spain

Cheers!

Re: A new spanish member!

Looks good. The wheels look to be in excellent condition. What is the mileage on the clock?

Thank you, RMK!

The clock shows "81240" milles, it isn't a new car but it seems not to be used a lot

Re: A new spanish member!

That's an ok mileage for a car that age and these engines and drive trains can take a lot. Drive it hard and enjoy it lots.

I think you won't find any problem in this process because third generation Camaro's mounted the same engines than Trans Am's. Corvette's mounted the L98 5.7 TPI engines too

Re: A new spanish member!

It looks good, JR350tpi. Don't think anymore and buy it... $600 is a very good price for this car. If it doesn't work properly you can repair it... in USA you can find a lot of pieces for these cars. You can visit www.rockauto.com and you will find all you can need for doing the maintenance for this nice machine!

Cheers!
