Post pics & info of your 3rd gen for ID purposes, so we can say "Hi"
#51
Hello, I'm a newbie and have just completed registration to the 3rd gen board. I don't have any decent pics of my ride, but I'll give you folks a brief description of my 1982 Trans Am. It's factory white(and still is) with factory smoked T-tops and red velour interior. It has a black Phoenix on the hood, and the body and ground effects are trimmed in black as well. It has a 5.0L HO carburated engine with a non-stock aluminum Z28 dual plane intake, a 650 Holley spreadbore, and camshaft and timing set with 1969 300hp-350 specs, stock automatic tranny, and performance suspension package with the factory 3:42 axle package and disc brakes on all four corners. It also has the factory stock aluminum turbine wheels with T/A Radials and the original plastic wheel covers.
This isn't the fastest car on the planet, but it is a rocket sled on rails when it comes to handling and cornering, and if you floor the gas pedal, you better be ready for a thrill, because it is "fairly quick".
I'm looking forward to doing some light restoration and a few little "performance enhancing" modifications in the future, so from time to time, I'll be reading posts and throwing a few questions at you guys. Here in the near future, I'll get it out of the garage and snap a pic or two to post up for you.
