Judge Man - did you or your friend look at the numbers to make sure it was actually a TA? We had a friend that was bragging about trading a non running Porsche for a 73 TA, 400 auto. My husband got to looking at it, wrote the numbers down and later looked them up. It was a 73 (ppl before put a 79 TA front end on it), it was not a TA, is was a Espirit, 350, auto. The only thing that was true about the car was it had a posi rear end and the engine and tranny had recently been rebuilt. He was so disappointed in it despite having a new drivetrain, he sold it to us for cheap!

I like your car. I think I've always liked the Formula hood better than the TA hood (the ones that came ALL the way to the front).

Cool ride,

1974 Trans Am, Admiralty Blue, no bird, 89,000 original miles, originally a 400cid 4-spd, now 472cid Edelbrock heads, headers, etc., 2.73 posi, poly bushings, orginal springs, gas shocks, still debating on 8" snowflakes or 8" rally II's. When my buddy gave me the car 12yrs ago it had been setting for 10yrs before that with spun rod bearings. The second owner had swapped the original heads, cam and pistons out for a set of RAIII's, 0.030 over pistons, RAIV cam, and headers. They had also added a gold bird and other decals which I didn't know were not stock until I got on here. It also had 7" snowflakes on it. Those are some of the reasons why I wasn't worried about fully restoring the car plus the fact that back when my buddy originally bought it we had all these big dreams of how the car should be and now I get to put it as close to that as I can.

I am currently flying a '65 goat(grazing perhaps), but in '75 through '78 I was flying a stellar blue 1975 Formula 400. I still dream that I have that car in my garage.

Hey to start off with Thanks Trev .... I think the silver is the best myself. I see alot of red and white but you dont see very many silver in 75. Hey Banitone thanks also. Yes she has some get up and go to her. It took me some time to find the power but I think Im on the right track with her. I took the motor out of her last weekend. Im going to do a few more mods to her. Freshen her up some ....new gaskets and things but I know where Im losing power so I have to work on that. Its just so must fun when Mustangs pull up to me at the lights. I just laugh...Hit the gas and laugh.... I hope to have her rocking for the Pontiac Nationals in 2005. It sure is fun driving Pontiac's You got to love it.....PhatDaddy and PhatDaddy Racing

I have a friend that just bought a 76TA.It has some unusual options.It has a vinyle roof and a stripe going down the back of the car.I've seen firebirds with vinyle tops but never a TA.If anybody has any info on these options,please let me know.Thanks Tim

Greg Reid · 04-19-2004, 10:10 AM

Guess I'll pile on here too..
1974 Trans Am, 455, A/C delete, Admiralty Blue with deluxe interior in basic black.
Here is a link to some of the minor restoration photos. It's basically a project car that runs and drives great as is but deserves a full resto.

74 Formula 400, soon to be a 455 under the hood.

cchicken · 11-25-2004, 09:02 PM

I've got a 76 T/A 50th Anniversary with a 400-4speed combo. It's got Hurst Hatches and is all stock other than the dual exhaust. Currently its only got 52,000 miles and is pretty much perfect. The interior is black and its even still got the factory AM/FM radio. I'll try to get some pics up this weekend..
