Re: Trans AM/GTA

At least it brought this thread up to the top so I could read it, didn't see it (wasn't here) the first time around. Great car and even better story. And for what it's worth I think it's a pretty darn special car.

Re: Trans AM/GTA

Thanks everyone! I have managed to hold onto the car while battling prostate cancer and the death of my previous wife three years ago. The car looks exactly the same with all maintenance completed as needed. During times that I couldn't work on her myself, a trusted mechanic has completed any repairs. It currently has 32K miles and can be driven anywhere anytime
