looks very nice and has the good options (formula wheel, tach gauges), but I wander why the tires have been replaced at only 8900 miles.

They probably flatspotted or started to dry rot after 40 years.

Tires that old are good for display only, even considering that the rubber quality was better then IMHO.

Certainly not my style, but it's refreshing to see one instead of another Trans Am.

Very cool looking Esprit.



I was wondering about the documents in the pics showing the order sheet with dealer Steidle Pontiac in OH (where the owner lived) and a document holder (thingy ) at top left with dealer name of Jack White Pontiac in California?
Steidle buy it from White?

Just a weird observation for me I guess.

I doubt that it was actually sold NEW in California.....with a Pontiac V8...

I bought a 77 Esprit parts car...from California....years ago.....and it had a 350 Olds in it...yes 350...NOT 403....

That was the year that ALL California bound TA's lost the Pontiac 400...for the 403 Olds...
