1970 Trans Am w/600HP

[TransamMs]

I own a lucerne blue 74' T/A400and shes so awesome! I'll never sell her cus shes my second 74' i lost my first one when i was 19! I wrecked her in a street race..im more mature now!

[fixxedstr10]

Why did you get rid of it? ??

[surf403]

Nice car but whats with the big ass wide walled tires on the front??

[Bogey12High]

Love those classic lines and the paint! Is that the original Lucerne Blue?

[estandid]

Why the hell cant people like Japanese sports cars and american sports cars?

[bpktrucking]

funny thing is Pontiac says there are no 1970 T/A's they were all titled 1970 and a 1/2 because of the Pontiac strike

[surf403]

Whats with the big ass truck tires on the front??

[MiracleMile90]

Nice, but if you've got 600 hp to throw around, why have a 4:11 posi? Wouldn't that thing have had trouble reaching 140? I'd stick with the lowest gear ratio I could get if I were to have a car with that much power.

[mrbill672]

SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  love her

[peak199]

My first car ever was a 69' GTO Judge with a heavily modified 400,4 speed, 456 12 bolt and every goodie you can imagine.I miss that car now.I still dream about it.25 years later,I still dream about it,then I wake up and I am pissed I don't still own it!

[MurPaDiLos]

I have a 79 Trans Am, just kinda curious about the stance.

what suspension is on her? Stock?

also what tires? they seem really nice and wide? Still 15s?

I'm guessing 245/60s or bigger?

I have the original snowflakes, so I'm sticking with those.

anyways love the ride, hope to meet you at next year's bandit run!

thanks

[TheZackfair13]

nice trans am, dont see many where im at like that one!

[MrWhiteHunter]

yeah well like i said a million time,get the best sway bar you can get and update the suspention and take that muscle car agains any other cars,like i saw a 1970 charger beating a Lambo. of the year and some other new cars in a TRANS AM like race track!! And the 1/4 miles?? please that was a joke.

[TheZackfair13]

@MrWhiteHunter i dont doubt that the charger beat that lambo, you tune a classic like those, and with some time and effort can get alot of horses out of it. but it takes time ill bet.

[MrWhiteHunter]

@TheZackfair13 Well yeah,but basic old school mecanique.Exp.440 mopar engine rated at 375 HP 450 lbs Torque.Remove the manif.carbs,ect....spend avrage 4000$ on a tunel ram"blower" and you got your self and very Fu...g fast car.400 HP BOST and about the same for Torque.Now do the math for ANY imports ,that from the get,go was not made for any of this.

[MiracleMile90]

@MrWhiteHunter: All you'd need then is a low gear ratio, and you'd be all set to go, go, go! ;-)

[HUEA45]

i wish i had one, i love muscle cars, what a shame kids today think these little 4 banger ricers are the shit;

[ninjairuken]

Im a car guy, I have owned both Imports and Domestics My current car being a 1997 Comp Ta. I have owned Imports (4Bangers) That would put my Ta with its Vortech SC 383 dick in the dirt. Problem is, most kids can not afford to mod their cars the right way. And instead do stuff to them that make them look cheap and run like shit. 170hp 1995 Eclipse GS would also stomp my car going through any pass in the Rockie Mountains. Like I said I love all cars. Just stating my opinion..Nice 70 TA in the vid

[natker13]

i know ur absolutely right

muscle beats em every time

[shadowsremain666]

i guess i'm one of the few different ones then. i'm 17, my first car was a 94 firebird formula with a 6-speed manual and the LT1 350. i was an idiot and wrecked that going 95. busted my ass for the last 6 months to pay back the money i borrowed. now i'm looking into a 78 formula. i've never had much respect for ricers, but American Muscle flat out kicks ass.

[justinwjsap]

@shadowsremain666 lol you sound alot like me. just my first car was a 78 t/a got it at 17 wrecked it doing 110 and spent about 6 months saving to fix it ($4200) trust me you'll take it easy with your next car.

[TheZackfair13]

@justinwjsap sweet! you gotta love the sound those 70s cars make comin down the street

[TheZackfair13]

@shadowsremain666 you got that right!

[handymann3]

@HUEA45 not all kids are like that. I am working on a 1981 T/A and building a olds 403 to about 450 hp and 500 tq to drop in and am only 15.

[TheZackfair13]

@handymann3 DAYUM! im a year younger than you and id love to own and fix a 1972 charger. currently im helping my freind fix his 67 skylark, and i hope to get enough cash for my own muscle car soon! youre lucky to work on cars like that! i envy you :)

[TheZackfair13]

@HUEA45 not all of us! im 14, and im saving any little dollar i can get for a 72 dodge charger, and my best friend owns a 67 skylark, and hes only 12! i got another friend in my neighborhood looking into trying to get a 69 camaro. and a girl on my steet has an 84 trans am in her garage. you gotta admit sum of us love the big blocks. and to me newer cars other kids like look like shit compared to the classics and big blocks that refined the experience

[rawnie79]

need one.

[pwkid]

Hey what Indian Mill you got in there? I myself am building a 455 .030 (462).

[Z28nander]

amazing sound man

[Stevie01177]

Is it stick

[themunkeymachine]

Yes...the description says it's a four speed...the Trans Am of that generation either had a three speed auto or a 4 speed manual...and that doesn't have 600 HP....it's wayyy too quiet for 600 HP....sounds pretty stock to me.

[joejonasstory]

that looks just like mine!!!!

[camrycamrycamry]

wow nice trans am!!!!

[7freddie7]

You had to put in the lead additive every time you fueled up with this car, or no?

[tmcgwow]

1970 blue wooo hooo!!!!!

[ShadowRejects]

wow, looks like a cobra and a camaro and a bumblebee, nice

[GTOGreg]

Love it. Sounds like a vintage Pontiac should.

[GoncasMan]

I like the sound, beatiful machine, i want one ;) who doesn't? ...

[bigO00mustang]

i agree. damn dude, what do you have in it??

[ddvtsh]

I think this is the nicest looking Trans Am of any year. Especially with the grill.

[restoreamusclecar]

This was a car we had years ago, not anything we restored, the motor was built by Butler Performance, prior to purchasing the car. It would really only run on TT111 high octane fuel, but ran really strong! It is no longer around, a local friend bought it and still has it today after several years. It really needed a new paint job and some time spent on light detailing, but showed well as a nice driver. Thanks

[BigDNick01]

i dont get it, how come all old cars have that sound in the engine? like blow up popping sounds or something? i want my car to sound liek that =(

[biff1212]

The simple answer is a long duration camshaft. You will get the lumpy idle. These older engines are large displacement torque monsters. Not even close to what we have nowadays. If you want a car to sound like that buy a 60's or 70's musclecar!

[fatboyguss]

or get flowmasters or a cherrybombs aka glasspacs

[tjfreak]

You could put any kind of throaty / growling exhaust on a stock , new generation Charger - Challenger - Mustang - GTO.. or what ever... although you can get a nice note from them... This thunder will never come out them.

[fatboyguss]

you can also get a badass cam and get that cool loping

[HUEA45]

i agree with you man youll never hear that authentic roar from these new cars

[peak199]

@restoreamusclecar Butler do know Pontiac motors inside and out!

[lfgmike]

that is a classic

[goofyguitar]

ill trade u my 94 formula for it =D

[pttttttttttt]

tres belle trans am !

[Ibanezman1007]

Now that is a nice car!!!!!

[Opi07]

that is a really sweet car!!!!! I bet they're really rare to find nowadays........

[Ibanezman1007]

I used to own a 1973 Firebird 350 4 BBL bored .40 over. Hurst shifter God I miss that car!!!

[1Bandit455]

Wicked--Pontiac Power.

[restoreamusclecar]

Thanks!

[imqm2]

whore!

[restoreamusclecar]

Thanks! I try... :-)

[varflane]

Hi,I own an orange 72 455, just had a tremec 5 speed fitted - goes like a rocket! saving for a respray, black would look better. Not many of these in the UK, they fetch a lot of cash here. I dont ever expect to sell it, thanks for the vid, not many of these on you-tube. Mike in London.

[restoreamusclecar]

Mike, checkout my website when you get a chance. RestoreaMusclecar Thanks for the great comments. Dave

[foxfirefilms]

I'll trade my 67 GTO for it today..

[russ8]

Love the car!!!

[restoreamusclecar]

Thanks, i miss driving it!

[cnh320generallee]

thats one hell of a car id like one

[restoreamusclecar]

They are getting tough to find, but can still be built if you want one.

[keaganmurphy]

sounds real good

[restoreamusclecar]

Thanks. It has flowmaster 40s with Ram Air Manifolds with 2.5" collectors!

[PAPASMURF22696]

That was my favorite car ever made...

[Trendyrapslut]

I absolutely love it. My favorite firebirds are the 70-73.

[restoreamusclecar]

70-73 are Mine too!  Thanks

[FirebirdFreak]

nice ride

[restoreamusclecar]

Thanks!  It is a lot of fun.
