I Forgot to say it is a 91 Trans Am GTA.....those were some pictures of when it was away for the winter so there is alot of junk in it like that string and my deck isnt into it here is some more pictures........... Under the hood is a bad mess too.... the owner b4 me never really took car of it to much he switched it to carberated it use to be EFI.... there is a 750 holly Double pumper on a 305 ho... i think thats to big of a carb for motor.

first and foremost.. remove steering wheel and burn it.

after that's done, I'd tend to the body/paint... which would give you good reason to keep it out of the mud as much as possible. My old man has a black on black 91 t/a 5 speed also, and they are definitly not a common combination. Best of luck with it!

wats wrong with the steering wheel. The stock camaro wheel is horrible, and i have seen t/a steering wheels with like a thousand buttons.

After the reason for the steering wheel being so ugly is offical, what steering wheel would you guys put.

Well, I suppose if the steering wheel tailored to the rest of the car's appearance it wouldn't be so bad, but it looks out of place. It almost looks plastic and cheap. If you really think stock steering wheels are that bad, I guess it's your call. I'd go with leather.

Looks like a clean car, but everyone's right, get 'er outta the muddd!

My dad has a steering wheel on his boat exactly like that

Thats a very nice ride man. My first suggestion would be some nice floor mats that would help keep the interior clean looking. Also, find something to cover the holes in the door panel.

But it definitly isnt a fixxer up, looks to be in great shape.
