New to the F-Bodies..
Hi Everyone
As the title implies I have just obtained from my extended family a 1991 Pontiac Trans Am in need of some work.

I just want to introduce myself to this board.

Well the work I know of it needs is at least one front fender (passenger) as well as passenger rear 1/4 panel. Possibly one floor pan.
Mechanically it has a possible flooding issue (low idle = stall), drivers headlight needs the gear fixed, and the hood sometimes refuses to release. Their suggestion to open the hood was to pop the hood, driver it for a few minutes and then open it.
I'll have more details after the weather gets better and I can take a good look at it.

i had the same hood problem on my old 85 before i sold it.It took me pulling on the hood release while my dad or somebody would have to pull up on the hood to get it to pop.it was a rediculous procedure.
Hopefully you get all the problems sorted out
