Default '73 Trans Am back on the road

Some may remember I bought a red '73 column shift car from the PY Forum. It's an original Brewster car with the tan interior. It was running but not well and really was not road worthy.

Anyway, I buy the numbers matching car and start collecting parts. I find a correct carb, unitized distributor, interior from Legendary, correct air cleaner and a few other parts. Lloyd had a heated rear window as this car had the electrics pulled off. I found this window maybe late '80s and traded it to Shuma who somehow ended up at Lloyds. I find out Lloyd has it and buy it back.

So, I had the car a few years when someone approached me to buy but we couldn't agree on a number. Fast forward a year and he calls me back and this time we agree. I decided to sell because it needed a home, I didn't have the time.

So, three years later I get a text. I won't give his name but he was kind enough to send some pics and I thought I'd share. His only deviation from the build sheet is the chicken on the hood.

I'm sure he's not happy with that detail and will be fixed.
