Finished in Polar White over a Blue knit interior, this 1970 Pontiac Trans Am is the recipient of a 2-year rotisserie restoration. The car comes with restoration receipts and PHS docs and is a blast to drive!

The car has excellent bodywork and a brand new two-stage paint job. All of the chrome and stainless has been redone, and all of the rubber seals and body bushings have been replaced. The engine compartment is nicely restored with the correct paint finishes, and the undercarriage is finished in correct red oxide primer. Also new is all the glass, which has been replaced with the correct looking, green tint glass. The front subframe and control arms have been powder coated to provide a little extra protection and a really nice finish.

The interior has been redone with new reproduction parts from Ames Performance. All of the soft parts are new as are the interior trim parts, handles, and lights. The gauges work correctly as do all of the interior lights.

The car is a PHS correct factory 4-speed, Ram Air III spec from the factory. The engine is a correct, 1970 Ram Air III engine and has been rebuilt to factory spec and is not numbers matching. The matching-numbers 4-speed transmission comes with the car, however, it was noisy after the rebuild and has a different professionally rebuilt tranny currently installed. It was rebuilt by a 4-speed specialist and is very smooth with a nice linkage. The car runs with a rebuilt Pontiac Rochester Q-Jet, factory manifolds, and an upgraded electronic ignition system. The exhaust system is the Firebird SD spec system from Ames performance and has a great sound without being overly noisy. The rear end is the posi 3.31 unit which has been rebuilt, and the clutch is a Centerforce dual friction unit.
