If you think this is just another Trans Am

THINK AGAIN!

OLD FORGE Motorcars is proud to offer this amazing magazine feature Trans Am. Purchased new the owner was disappointed in the Pontiac's performance and driving dynamics compared to his Ferrari Boxer 512, so he built his Trans Am to be comparable to his Ferrari. Copies of the magazine article comparing his 2 cars from Sports Cars of the World are available. We will not respond to email requests.

The owner started by replacing the anemic factory installed Chevy 305 with a Danny Jesel built 355 with a roller tappet cam and aluminum heads. Dynoed a 502hp @ 7000 rpm, the recommended redline is 8500 rpm! 0-60 time 3.5 seconds quarter mile 11.80 sec@120.5 mph.

The car was sent to Ed Moran for a complete suspension rebuild using Herb Adams VSE suspension as the base - the result is a Trans Am that rides similar to a factory produced car but one that handles and corners much better. The build took in excess of 1000 hours, the result is amazing.

Our multi-point inspection gives this beast a thumbs up except for the aftermarket 220 mph odometer/speedometer which is not working correctly.

Rest assured this Trans Am is second to none in performance and driving dynamics - you will love it!

Peter has transformed his love of cars into a business helping to bring together collector car sellers and buyers. Old Forge Motorcars operates out of the former Lincoln Mercury Dealership building.
