I would think that with proper planning, one could graft 4 or 6 NACA ducts on that hood also.

Thanks Guys, The car is castillian bronze. I have every thing to make it a TA clone car but I am torn with doing a color change. What do you think about a castillian bronze TA with the Lucerine blue stripe kit?

I seem to recall there being a early 70's trans am for sale a while back that had been repainted Castillion Bronze. It looked pretty cool.

From the 73-77 A Body Tech section. IIRC that GT was delivered as shown from the factory.

After some work at the body shop and some home garage suspension work, I thought I'd post some pics of my 72 TA:

Splendid. I've been thinking for quite a while about mounting a complete (old parts of course) endura front bumper on the front of my garage up in the gable and hook it up to a motion sensor with a 12 volt source I think they look great used for anything. They're unmistakeably Pontiac.


nice car man.
