This is a paint job I did out of my garage about 3 years ago, and still looks like this.

Originally when my car came out of the factory it was two-tone.Ive always wanted to see what my cars factory color looked like.Hopefully someone will post in this thread a car with these same paint codes.
Savagevulcan,youre car is sweet.I think the black croslaces would look bad ***.But did you ever get youre nose grilles?

Thanks for the compliments. I havent seen too many white and black thirdgens so when it came time to paint i kept with the original scheme and i like how it has come out so far. I think it will look even better with those crosslaces i have ordered though
82knightrider: i just ordered the grilles from hawks last week. I looked around and that was the only place i could find them. The weather over here really beats on those grilles i guess.

That is a nice 1982 T/A. I see it has original tires on it. Amazing I love the white/black.

1983 T/A Blue/Black Original Paint (Needs help)



1983 T/A Silver/Black. (Needs to be running again)



I love Two Tone cars

thanks 82firebirdTA. It's amazing that my dad just parked it after the clutch stuck. 12 years later, his son is looking for a car and there is a nice 82 Trans Am with 22,000 miles sitting in the garage. After replacing the clutch disc, resealing the gas tank and getting a new sender unit it runs like new

I also like your car too. especially the silver and black one with the black GTA's. I think that is just about nicest combination for two tones.

Yeah man that an awesome color combo. I think you should keep it, but it's your car.

I think you were talking about my car? Nonetheless.. here's some red interior. I like that sunset orange/silver color combo! I like my color combo alright though, I haven't really seen any like mine round here before.

I like this picture too. To bad there's the house infront of the car. A super straight stretch of road in the desert would have been cool!
