Well gang I'm at the point where I really want to build the 85% composite TA and one of these cars has to go in order to fund the project... That said I figured the timing might be right to offer up the "WarHorse", my White on White 73TA I took to SEMA and the Optima this past year.

The car features the following goodies:
-Carbon Fiber nose
-Carbon Fiber custom built flared fenders
-Carbon Fiber inner fender wells
-Carbon Fiber Hood
-Carbon Fiber shaker
-Carbon Fiber wheel flares
-DSE sub
-Ride Tech 4 Link
-T 56 Magnum (if bought with motor options below)
-9" floater
-Wilwood Brakes
-Custom built 12" Rallie II styled 3 piece rims that feature 335 BFG's on all 4 corners
-Custom covered Sparco 505 seats and upholstery

Currently I have pulled and sold the motor from the car and thought this just might the right time to offer it up in the following manor/s:
1- As a roller that is complete less motor and trans $70,000USD
2- As a running car with a zero mile LS2 and T56 Magnum $78,000
3- As a running car with a 416 built LQ4 and T56 Magnum $83,000
- the 416 would have New scogg and dicky LS3 heads and a Wiseco rotating mass

As you can see I'm at a cross road where I can offer some flexibility in the drive line so I thought I'd put this out there and see if there is interest in the car while providing options to a potential buyer....

Clearly this is a unique Trans Am that is unlike any other TA in the market place... It handles like it's on rails and an absolute blast to drive.... The seats are super comfortable so long drives are a breeze and pending the power chosen it'll pretty darn quick to say the least.... The pictures tell the story and I'm available for questions at 416-566-9660
Thanks,
Albert

Albert,

Unless I missed it, please put the location of the car in the ad. :thumbsup:

Also, fwiw, what kind of motor was pulled from the car. BBP or LS?

Car is located in Toronto right now, however it has had the clearance to sell into the USA already so crossing the boarder is a no brain deal with this car....

Sold the Pontiac 473 injected motor out of the car and like advertised I'm weighing options with the impute from possible buyers.... Currently has no motor but will likely end up with LS2 with T56 Magnum in it....

Albert,

Good info.

BTW-did you start with a NOM and tranny TA/shell?

Car started as a rust free, however long in the tooth 50,000 mile white on white 73 TA 455 auto car and dam near every piece of the car outside of the shell/tub was replaced with custom fabrication and Carbon...

Ultimately it was a test bed for many of the products we've developed at Carbon Kustoms ltd. and it's extremely quick in the right hands. The suspension and brakes are sorted and it handles like it's on rails. I believe the addition of an LS based platform will shore up it's only weak link and table a reliable extremely fun car in the end...

T-man posting yet again LOL.....
You've asked for things in the past from both myself and Scott and in every case you've had more conditions than a heart attack,, or excuses than a child.

You play this game of trying to see if there was an endless bottom in a price that finds others financing your project, or you pass after wasting a ton of their time. Or the wind blows from the east and you can't make your mind up. Or the wind blows from the west and you can't make your mind up.... What the Hell do you need pic's of this engine bay for??? You won't buy the car,,, frankly you sir can't buy the car with all the money in America.... Just stay off my thread/s please...

Just a quick update on the 73.... The car was chosen as a return SEMA car and will be the feature car in MSD's booth.... It has had the following mods made to it.

1- The power train is a West Bend Dyno 416ci LS3 that has dyno time on it only as of this post...

2- The car has been wrapped and a custom one off chin spoiler and front wheel flare package has be built for the car. All graphics are vinyl and can be removed (including the complete wrap for that matter which would leave you with a white 73 TA with a Blue Hood bird)

3- A brand new set of of 4 335 Rivals will be on the car this week......

So the updated price is $85.000 USD all fresh and ready to go....
