This Turbo Trans Am Pace Car is owned
by Andy Kearns. Andy writes: "The 1980 Trans Am Pace Car was purchased for $750. The original 301 Turbo motor is gone, and a 4bbl 301 out of an 81 Bonneville sits in its place. I had originally purchased it as a parts car for my other projects, but I don't have the heart to tear it apart. The interior is in amazingly good shape, the body's really straight, and except for the turbo, it's a very complete, unmodified car. It'd been wrecked pretty hard in the front, and all the damaged body pieces replaced with new sheet metal, but I'm afraid the sub-frame needs to be replaced. Since the original engine's long gone, when I swap the sub-frame, I'll probably drop a 400 in, apply new paint and decals, and use it as a driver." Andy also owns an extremely nice '79 Formula that can be seen at the '79 Firebirds Lot#4. |
