Description of 1986 Pontiac Trans Am 5.7 GTA conversion |
1986 Pontiac Trans Am. GTA conversion. A beautiful 1986 Trans Am. 5. 7 liter (350 c. i. ) high performance engine built by a GM dealer in Zionsville Indiana. 4 wheel disc brake WS6 package. T-Tops. only 83. 00 miles and OUTSTANDING recent black paint. This is a special car. It was built around a 1986 Trans Am. using major performance components from a wrecked 1987 Trans Am GTA. The GTA donated its 5. 7 motor. complete rear axle with 4 wheel brakes. special GTA wheels. seats and special center console to this car. PLEASE SEE THE VIDEO LINKS POSTED BELOW. Why do this? Because the complete original drive train and interior in this car was lost when the car was stolen. and then recovered years ago. So. . . . that was the perfect opportunity to step up to the 5. 7 GTA specs. The 5. 7 wasn't available in a Trans Am until 1987. and then only in the GTA. This car was built by 2 older. experienced gentlemen who decided to purchase a wrecked GTA to rebuild this T/A. rather than a standard 5. 0 liter Trans Am (305 c. i. Chevy) which is a much less powerful and capable vehicle. This makes this T/A much better than it ever was before. A few years later they traded with me for a V8 speed boat- which was a little over a year ago now. They did it right and it shows. Right down to a performance engine build at a Chevy dealer in Zionsville (remember-the 5. 7 was a Chevy motor). One turn of the key and I PROMISE you will smile! It sounds awesome! Hooker Competition short-style headers and a rumbling exhaust note see to that. The paint really is beautiful (see video). and make no mistake. it is brutally fast. True story. I did noticed 2 mechanical points that either weren't finished. or were intentionally done this way and I want to point them out. The GTA must have had power windows. because the switches are still in the GTA center console which is in this car. and this car did not have power windows originally. The windows are still manual as they always were. If you choose to convert them to power all the switches are in place. Not a big deal really. The second item is that the air condition was never reinstalled. I am assuming that since they were building a performance car. it must not have been important to them. or it was intentional. About the ONLY item you will need to attend to soon will be tires. Or. at no additional charge. I have a great set of Z28 wheels and tires I would be happy to switch them with. Your choice. Other than that. it's an awesome car. Please call me at 219-488-4647. Thank you.
