I remember in tech school in the early 90's looking at late 70's gov't airphotos and being able to spot GM dealerships by all the F-bodies in their parking lots.

These 1976 model Trans Am`s are in my opinion the nicest Trans Am since the 1970 to 1973 models. - Absolute awesome car !

Sweet ride…. The manual transmission just puts it into dreamcar land 😊

Nothing better than a well seasoned Barret jackson car buff to sell a car... nice job Steve👍

@billsoltys7611 Год назад

One year only front end. To me it looks better than the 77-78 that has the rectangular headlights and definitely better than the 79-81. IMO, the 70-73 was the best looking Trans Am.

Had a 76 455 super fun car in the early 90s for sure

Steve could make you want to own a YuGo. Love his attention to details and knowledge. Beautiful car.

76 was Definity a GREAT year.

I think this one is a repeat that I've commented on before. With the VIN (from the HOC website) we win: 2 for Pontiac, W for Trans Am, 87 for two door coupe, Z for 400 V8 with four barrel, 6 for 1976 model year, N for Norwood, OH assembly and the rest is the production sequence. The Norwood, OH plant operated until August 1987 and production at that time was done solely at Van Nuys, CA through the 1992 model year. After that, production moved to St. Therese, Quebec Canada for model years 1993 to 2002. No tag, can't brag.

Just to let you know the collapsable spare was in my older brother's 671/2 Firebird 400 when he purchased the first Firebird sold in Mt Vernon, IL. I currently have a number matching 76 Trans Am with 455 4 speed. Fluxed, balanced with cam and chrome molly pistons. Dynode at 330hp 450 lbs of Torque. I have the dyno sheet and the engine build sheet. Original Quadrajet.

Very nice TA. Must say I disagree with the serpentine belt system being better than a V belt stock pulley system. I had a March pulley system on a 81 Trans Am 461 that was on the car when I purchased it. The serpentine belt would not stay on. Went through 4 of them. Pulled the serpentine system off and replaced with the factory V belt pulley set up. 7 yrs later never once threw a belt. Still running good to this day.

Steve I like yr style and trust what you say, and I like that you don't try to ram it down people's throats. You just tell us what it's got or hasn't and very fairly delivered. Onya mate, from West Australia.

I bought my first Trans Am in 1975 right off the dealer's lot. It was sterling silver with burgundy interior. It had the Pontiac 400 engine rated at 185 hp. I quickly modified the car putting on a true dual exhaust system complete with Hooker headers. Then many mods to the engine incl. the installation of a Crane cam. I was not happy with the stock car so I had it built the way it should have come from tge factory. Yes Trans Ams sales started to increase in 1975 and aftet the movie "Smokey and The Bandit" sales skyrocketed. So much so that Chevy brought back the Camaro Z/28 in 1977.

@yonihales9133 11 месяцев назад

Did you know in the movie Smokey and the bandit the cars used were the 76 TA year model as the 77 was not completed yet prior to the begining of filming of the movie although they did replace the 76 TAs front end with the soon to be released 77s . But the cars in the movie were in fact 1976 model year TAs.

@KevinTurner-hr1wg Год назад

The new style 77 Shaker was very small and barely rose above the hood level, and was changed for 78 making it higher, and the splitter tail pipes were only on the 455, the 400 had single straight pipes out the rear. And in 78 you got the dual resonator exhaust that gave it a little better sound than the previous single can sitting horizontal behind the rear axle. Guys started putting a "test pipe" you could buy at any Western Auto or from the JC Whitney Catalogie to remove the cat converter that not only freed up some exhaust flow but made it sound real good with a nice rumble.

@BuzzLOLOL Год назад

The GTO splitters were more vertical and in the rear of the wheel well behind the rear tire... close enough you could hear them with the windows rolled down... muffler shops were too lazy to put replacement splitters in the correct spot...

@KevinTurner-hr1wg Год назад

@@BuzzLOLOL my buddy had a 64 GTO with the splitters, yes a differant angle

@BuzzLOLOL Год назад

@@KevinTurner-hr1wg - Yeah, back in the day my and 2 neighbor kids '65 GTOs had the splitters in the wheel well... can't even find a picture of one that way now...

@@BuzzLOLOL my favorite the 65 before the 68 year change...

@terrybangley2281 6 месяцев назад

Yeah, the 77 shaker was 1 1/2 inches tall and in 78 it went to 2 inches ,

I could do without that dark and illegal window tinting.

@The_R-n-I_Guy Год назад

It's not illegal everywhere. But I also prefer a lighter tint. My eyesight isn't very good at night. And these F-Body cars don't have a lot of visibility to begin with
