Default '77 Trans Am 400/4-Speed - Beater/DD

Heres the T/A I picked up in September to use as a daily driver/beater/project. Whatever you want to call it. I'm slowly working on the cosmetics of the interior right now, but as soon as I get caught up on everything else I will move on to the bigger/better things for it such as quarter panels, the tail panel repair, and giving it a new paint job.

Anyway, it's pretty much bone stock right now, 2.41 (highway geared ftw) posi, 400 and the 4-speed w/ a CenterForce Dual Friction clutch. I plan to throw a RAIV (equiv.) cam in it, put a Edelbrock Performer intake on it, tune the Quadratoilet, install the headers I bought for it and put a full header-back Pypes exhaust on it. That should be the extent of my mods to it.



Heres some pics:








I think she got frostbite... No, it doesn't get driven in the snow. Had a lot of winds so it kind of made a wind tunnel out of the carport.

In the winter we have about 2 spots left in the driveway, unless we park them incredibly close (like 1" apart)

Summer, we're usually near the sidewalk. You know how long our driveway is too... :P

Figured it was time to do an update on goldie...







New interior (currently still waiting on doorpanels)



Audio system consists of an Alpine headunit, Pioneer speakers, two Alpine amps, and an Eclipse 10" subwoofer. Sounds pretty good!
