1980 Pontiac Trans Am SE with T-Tops
1980 Pontiac Trans Am Pace SE Description
Greetings, I am selling my 1980 Pontiac Firebird/Trans Am,was originally an Indy/Daytona Pace Edition Y85 SE(only 5,700 made).
Car is pretty clean, obviously been garaged and not driven in snow or rain. Undercarriage and body is in great shape for it's age.
Nice body, very solid floors and trunk. The drain plugs are clean and nice,
The body bushings are good, door bushings are perfect(open and close well). Front end parts are all good and it drives nice- no vibrations or pulling. Low Mile chassis for sure. Clean wheel wells, quarter panels, doors(new window sweeps too), glass good.
Has T-Tops, cameo white exterior, has had one repaint -before I got it-, holding up well and shines alright still.
Original matching Vin # x87 stickers are still on the door.
Is an X87 code/vin car, comes with the stock/original WS6 factory options (steering gears and hd sway, 4 wheel disc brakes stock, air-cooled 15X8 turbo rims, and Positrac rear -with original tag still on it.)
Has subframe connectors, and lakewood ladder bars set up right. Rides and drives great on street, strip, or highway. (No Problem with going over speed bumps at all either)
This Trans Am has an L-88 style 2 1/2 cowl fiberglass hood(in photos).
The original Turbo TA hood is long gone, don't ask please.
Has a recent, probuilt, balanced 74 SBC 350 with lopey cam, high torque starter, 3" duals and Thrush mufflers out to rear axle--sounds amazing.
TH350 trans w/ blue 2200 stall converter, shift kit nice chirp, chrome pan, and B-M ratchet shifter. 4 core radiator.
The engine oil stays clean, and fluids all good.. Engine has no knocks or ticks or smoke and is turn-key.
This '80 TA has:
MSD 6a ignition, MSD billet distributor, holley fuel pump(loud) and regulator, Weiand intake, two fans, cam, chrome oil and trans pans, Chrome alternator, aluminum water pump, trans cooler. Edelbrock carb, tube headers, 3" dual exhaust with crossover. Performance shocks.
What needs Work:
The wiper motor needs to be re-installed and mounted proper, but works. And ..heater/defrost is aftermarket- needing vents to be hooked up, but I have a box of vent parts to come with the car.... Original one piece carpet still looks fine.
Interior--dash has been repaired and showing it.
Also needs: a visor, the T-tops are nice and tight-but one t-top inner plastic trim needs replacement, the headliner starting to droop, steering wheel's under trim piece missing(20$ replace)... Glove box lock, trunk lock/key, also needs replacement but electric popper works in glovebox. Has aftermarket heater/blower
Body: Driver's fender is puckering on the lower by door( when open is the only visible rust forming spot, see photo) and body/paint will need attention eventually. Diamond plating installed by previous owner.
Has decent black/houndstooth seats, ok cd player, decent remote alarm with two remotes., a master- shut-off switch, and new $$ battery mounted in trunk.
Great car, needs nothing to drive, but far from being a "show" car.
I have a clean title in my name, in hand, I've been the owner past few years.
and I will be happy to share more photos, answer any questions, talk on the phone, etc.
I can even help ship the car (loading onto a truck, meeting a driver), reasonably, and even keep it in my garage for a few more weeks-- after payment clears only--until you are ready to have it delivered!.
I would like payment within 7 days. Come see the car if you are interested! I reside conveniently in between cities of Milwaukee and Chicago. I welcome your bids--- but please do not bid if you cannot pay please!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks! Neil G.
