Car went to media blast. Every closed structure, even frame boxes were open. They are cleaned, blasted and three (3) layers of epoxy is painted all around. It's funny how small things make big difference: you don't have to worry anymore, is there rust somewhere inside of frames or not. Roof frames, deck filler panel, rear quarters, floor frames (front, middle and rear) are all cleaned this way. Crazy some say, but now it's done. Period. Hopefully this treatment will help my T/A to survive next 45 years on the road!

These pictures are taken in California 2013, just before my purchase. Previous owner has bought this car in 1998 and it have been waited for restoration since then. The previous owner is a Mopar enthusiastic and collector, started gather these gems in 1980's. His collection have been total 60 cars , but he has sold now 20 cars away. He still has 40 Mopars, not bad! He bought a few years ago another T/A, in better shape. He thought that one T/A is enough and this project was "on silent sale". Peter Jenslund knew this car and with excellent help of Peter I finally managed to buy this Trans Am. Not many T/A projects cars are on sale anymore! Some specs you all are waiting for - FF4 Light Green Metallic - Black Vinyl Top - Black interior - Black Steel Wheels, dog dish and ring trims - Buildsheet, fender tag, door tag - #Matching engine 340 T/A engine, fully repaired - Non matching TF727 transmission, needs repair I'll list more specs after investigating Build Sheet more carefully. Here are couple of shots of this project car (status October/2013): |
