The rear end treatment , definitely needs a few more treatments .
Very impressed with their work on the front end.

I agree it is the best mod job I have ever seen on the front of one of these cars.
Nothing good to say about them in their stock form - front or rear.

The 71 TA: he has original #96 heads





I'd make sure it's a real TA? (no documents or VIN given)

Those bull horns make it look like it needs an orthodontist.
Nice cars though.

Comes with requisite garbage BFG's, though they look at least 20 years old by tread design.

The 72 is a nice car. The 71 is too, but with Edelbrock heads they're asking too much. Not a fan of the front bumper bullhorn option.

Agree. IMO the car is trying to do too much. It has a 69 400 like hood (not T/A), but also has a screaming chicken. The rear end would look better IMO without the T/A wing, but they did do a nice job. From someone who has 2 69 Firebird convertibles and drives a 2010 SS 6 speed Camaro every day, I understand the vision. If it was painted white with a blue paint job like a 69 T/A it would have worked better. Agree with Greg Reid's first reaction. I like it, but I don't hate it. I do appreciate it though, just for the good ol' college try to realize the vision.

Read the 67 convertible ad again and realized it says it comes with 2 front NOS fenders (see top of car). That's gotta be worth bank. This one looks like an outstanding base for a new project. $3100 NR in Ohio.

78 T/A 400 4 speed with a lot of work done to it. Needs interior work, but at $16.5K BIN in Delaware, it's reasonable. The skinny tires look bad and prolly make it ride rough, but that's an easy fix.

Dual snorkel under a shaker... interesting. Agree on the tires. Those 'no profile' tires are a terrible look on classic American cars IMO, especially a TA. Easy fix though.

79 T/A in Massachusetts at NR $2500. Project car with a rebuilt Olds 403, it's gotta cost $5K to rebuild an Olds. Really poor pics with none of the front end or interior.

Did eBay change the way they enforce listings?

When I listed my brake stuff on eBay I listed my email for technical info - they were always barking about it and once suspended me for 10 days even though they admitted no fee avoidance was happening. After that I told them to go **** in their hat.

And here this guy says the car is available for sale at their dealer and lists the phone number several times...

Probably is a GTO since it's titled that way. No 242 giveaway on the '72 models.
