Default My 71 T/A Clone build

Hi guys!

So Im new to PY, but not to Pontiacs. I've been checking out this place for a while now and I like it here! Now, on to the car!

Btw, its being cloned into a 73 SD455. Hence the 73 nose, rear bumper, engine bay parts, and seats.

The car is a 71 Esprit that I picked up for a song (try 3 figures!... with all the parts!!!!) and has been a project I've been working on with my Dad for the past year or so. A tree branch fell on the roof and wrecked the T/A hood that was on it. Other then the minor tree damage, it was solid as could be, with the original floors, trunk, and 1 quarter still there. It had no engine, so I went out and got a 73 455 to mate to the ST10 4speed. The rear was junk, so a good Pontiac buddy of ours gave us a free posi rear which was like new! I then picked up a nice rust free T/A hood. The fenders that are on it now are the old ones which are full of bondo and rot, but I have a mint pair of rust free ones that will go on when the car is painted.

I have a ton of pics, and will post most up here. Let me know what you think!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.

Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
