My 1982 trans am, what do you think of it
it's a 75k mile car has a nearly mint condition tan leather interior, drivetrain and electronics have all been changed though. is it worth what a original non modded 82 would go for in the same condition.

Post some interior pics...car looks sweet! I like the rims, I've been debating on getting them, since the turbocast are next to impossible to find for a descent price and I'm kinda sick of my "formula" rims. They seem to go pretty low on Ebay too since not too many people like them.

is the gold paint you used on the rims the same color as the lower gold on the bottom of the car, Goldwing Metallic?

by electronics I mean the car now has all 1990 wiring throughout the car, every possible piece of wiring has been upgraded, I have been debating even putting a drivers side air bag in it since everything is on the car for it to work, the car has a 1990 corvette L-98 with f-body iron L-98 heads. It also has edelbrock lower TPI manifold with SLP runners, serpentine belt drive, dual electric f-body fans and the original automatic was replaced with a T-5.

the bottom is that goldwing but the wheels for some reason are just a shade off. I have a gold set of 14 inch turbo casts if your interested, and I also have 2 15x7 inch turbo cast wheels

you are correct they are the same, I was looking for this gold style for a few years to replace my 14 inch turbo casts, I would have paid your friend alot more than what he was asking LOL If you interested in a set of edelbrock TES headers and Y-pipe do a favor for me and there yours for free
thank you all for you nice comments on the car. And to ease all your minds no this car is never raced or beaten on and it will never become a KITT CAR. And no there is not a speck of rust anywhere on it. car was originally purchased in ontario, CA and has never been elsewhere .
for some reason most of my interior pictures are corrupt but here is one that wasnt
