June 2019 COTM **Winner**
Congratulations, punkmaster98! Your kick-*** '84 Trans Am is our TGO June 2019 COTM Winner. Personally, I love to see Third Gens with modified original, or swapped modern power plants, on the dynos, and staying relevant among late model 'Vettes, modded 4th Gens, and the like. That, and when all that hard work pays off, and all those little personal touches come together to make something that would be a favorite pet in any garage. Nice work.
This car has truely been my most favorite of what I've owned to date. Picked this one up in Norfolk VA bone stock with blue interior. The perfect canvas to make my own. To make it a little different I did a few cosmetic and drivetrain changes to make it standout but nothing too wild I hope. Brand new lq4 shortblock with a cammotion titan 4 cam., t-56, Ford 8.8, full exhaust with 2nd gen T/A tips, reupholstered recaro seats, Wings west spoiler, C4 front brakes and 98-02 ls1 Rears. Big Thanks to some of the members here for guidance and assistance on this one.
