I think most people who own a TA, will say that they like theirs best, especially if they have put a lot of time and effort in making it what it is today.
I like mine too!
I know, this pic has been posted a billion times, but its one of the only sets of pics i still have. I lost everything on my hardrive 6 months ago and have not had the chance to get new pics.

There are some sick TAs here!!! Here's mine before the Ram Air I hood, fresh paint and Breyton 18" wheels. It might not be the best but I like it.

i have an edelcrock rpm air gap, 1" spacer, holly 4150 carb, and a 4" air cleaner with a flat base. So i could lower is over 2" with ease and fit it under a smaller cowl if i wanted to.
383(Well, now I think it's a 350ish again.) Miniram, TKO 5-speed, Willwoods, Immaculate paint and body.
Beautiful

Hey //<86TA>\\ I do believe you are right about everyone thinking their own is the best but I just started the restore and build process on mine so it's ugly right now. But your's on the other hand, wow. I love the hood. I think cowl is so much better than the WS6 for our cars. Just my opinion though. Plus when I'm done an air horn sticking out of a WS6 hood won't look as intimidating as it will sticking out of a cowl.

guys, I think the spirit of this thread was to give credit to other members that have a Trans Am that you sincerely believe to be the best looking that you've seen. Have some humility and don't nominate yourself! There are plenty of "post pics of your ____" threads already

umm,please re-read post number 1.
original poster asked for some pics that were inspirational for whatever reason, and I think he has been provided with that by the amount of responses and gorgeous pics from our fellow third gen bird lovers.
But,if this an online carshow(us being judges of course)
I'm gonna have to agree with a few others here on Razors quasar blue bird!
That car is so nice,I would lick the drainplug when changing the oil! hahaha!

I agree with Jeremy. I took this thread to be post what you think looks best. Maybe I'm not as narcissistic as some of you but I nominated a bird other than my own. Obviously I think mine looks better, but that's because it's mine. If I thought his looked better mine would look like Schultzy's gorgeous bird.

I would have to say that if your looking for inspiration on a bad *** TA then i strongly agree with insane, his vert(before she decided to drive herself) is pure sex, and <86TA>'s car is the same way.
The only thing I like about wade flannery's t/a is the 4th gen wing. Nice work not my taste..hate the paint..mexican ish to me...rear wheels awsome..fronts ewww. But again..great work not for me.

i know that mine isnt the best out of any of these by far lol, and its kinda an old pic and the car was dirty at the time, but heres mine, i think its the best personally cuzi put so muchwork and money and time into it so far, so to me it holds more value.
(please mind the car, these pics were taken last winter, didnt have a chance to wash it and i now have a new interior as well)
I wouldn't have made a comment like I did without reading first. The part of the original post that I'm referring to is in the first line: "...i want to see pics of the best looking third gen trans am you have ever seen." If many people believe they've never seen a better looking third gen trans am than their own, then they're either very conceited or just not looking. It doesn't really matter at this point though since most people seem to have read the post the same way I have and are posting pictures of other people's cars that impress and inspire them.
