Looking for opinions on this Trans Am

I am interested in looking at this car. Wondering what the thoughts are re: price, condition etc. I know it is the low horsepower model, but am not an expert on these cars. I like the looks of it, and it appears to be in good condition.

It looks to be in really nice shape. I'd be a bit afraid of the recent paint job, they often hide all sorts of problems that will pop up again later.

Looks decent. See if he has photos of the car before paint. Even better if he has bodywork photos. I had a 75 Esprit. These are very comfortable cars!

Fresh paint is nice but can hide a multitude of sins. Bring a spot rot gauge.

One spot to check on those cars are the spring eyes for the rear leaf springs. They often crack up on top where you can't see it, so run your hand around the spring eyes to feel for cracks or breakage.

A '75 Trans Am has at least a 400, which is all you need to know.

 

For those that ever wondered what that vacant slot in the console is for, this car shows what it is like when loaded with a Delco 8-track player.

Pretty car. Looks clean in the pictures. I'm not a fan of an automatic but if it works for you and wants to follow you home, embrace it and enjoy it. You don't see that year of T/A's for sale often.

Always liked these cars too... nice drivers ... Jim Rockford had the Esprit ...Very cool

It was on eBay I think....... bid went to around $16 or $17,000 ??? ... who knows how many bids were real though!!!

Always question when someone paints a car ... then sells it ... plus 400 eng is a smogger and automatic is a $$$$$$ killer..

Better to find one with original body and paint ( even if paint is old ) and GET THE 4SP ( not many guys buying automatic Firebirds or Camaros ). ....... When you go to sell one day .... the 4sp is what will sell the car.... IMHO
