Here are a couple '70 T/A's that I bought a couple years ago. I ended up selling both cars. Can't keep them all.

421 Tri Power four speed. It sat in this barn for 40 years. Five weeks after I pulled it out, a tornado leveled the barn.

Here are a couple pics of my 70 TA the Day I brought it home in 1978. Bought it parked on the street 1 day after the giant Blizzard in 1978. Over 3ft. of snow. The owner said "bring a battery and a snow shovel if you want it". I couldn't get there fast enough. Two friends, shovels, and a battery. "I won't take a penny less than $1500.00", he announced. I put the battery in, it cranked for 2 seconds and ran just fine. Gave him the money and drove it 20 miles home. Ram Air III, AC, 4-speed, no console, sandlewood custom interior.

This photo is from the day I picked up my '67. My son, who was 4 at the time, asked me when we could take it out for a drive. I told him we needed to clean it up first...a couple hours later I found him in the garage taking care of the clean-up himself.

I think this was 'the' day, if not soon thereafter. I'll have to do a deep dive for pics of my '69 GTO and 3rd/4th gen TAs (all long gone).
