Picked up this 71 Espirit today. One repaint but interior appears to be original, except for the radio/speaker hacked console. Drives really nice. Showing 82k miles.

Good looking Esprit!

Is the hood a functional hood?

Got some color on the 70 RAIII. Figured it was as good a time as any to take a pic of the other two as well.

Default 1973 Trans Am before Resto Mod

I know this is a picture thread, but I have a video of my 1973 TA before the resto mod upgrade. The car will appear the same with the hood closed when the upgrades are finished. With the exception of being able to see the Dougs Headers and sub-frame connectors. I know the front end is high in this video, but that will be taken care of with upper and lower tubular control arms and QA1 coil overs. The next time you will see this is in the Super Duty section.

Took the 71 out today. Its a beautiful 60 degree March day. We don't get those often, so I had to take full advantage.
