Restored Trans Am Ram Air III 400 V8 Automatic Pwr Steering and Brakes /// A meticulously restored F-Body that's one of only 1,339 Ram Air III/3-speed Trans Ams produced for the 1970 model year, this first class Firebird wears clean Polar White 2-stage that's set off by aggressive blue war paint. The car's bodywork is solid throughout, with smooth, flat panels that are complemented by better-than-factory alignment. And today, this classic rolls as muscled MoTown royalty that's virtually guaranteed to... never go out of style! Under the hood, 400 cubic inches of proven Pontiac power hides a familiar 9799914 casting number behind a Ram Air III-spec "YZ" assembly stamp and a matching 117486 partial VIN. Behind the hot 400, a tough Turbo-Hydramatic 400 3-speed spins power to a tough 12-bolt axle that, according to its "E" assembly stamp, spins a posi-traction differential around 3.50 gears. Below that stellar drivetrain, a rebuilt Trans Am suspension, which includes correct power steering, thicker sway bars, better shocks and stiffer springs, complements with standard issue power front disc and rear drum brakes. At the center of the car, a throaty, true-dual exhaust system hangs rowdy Flowmaster mufflers in front of polished stainless tips. And everything rolls on a quartet of attractive Rally IIs, which twist 235/60R15 BF Goodrich Radial T/As. When it comes to interior décor, Pontiac's '70s team was firing on all eight cylinders. Correct vinyl buckets are clean and crisp, easily defying the car's age. In front of those seats, a warp-free dash splits rebuilt factory telemetry and modern Sony audio with an attractive, engine-turned instrument panel. Beneath that ledge, a molded console frames a small shifter. And the driver spins a black Formula Steering Wheel. When the sun is warm and the road is beckoning, this Trans Am is exactly the kind of classic that can answer the call! Call, click or visit for more information.
