  • Wow that T/A looks and sounds flawless!!! wicked job!

  • My dad owned maybe 12-15 classic muscle cars from a 63 Vette to a 70 Hemi Cuda and a 39 ford Rat . . .He said the 6.6 T/A was the only car that ever scared the living $hit out of him. . . He says as long as you have the balls to hold the pedal down, the car would keep accellerating. . . I can't wait to ownz one.

  • Or If you wanna be the king Buy a 1973 SD 455 TA ..200K dls

  • 1978 SE Black TA is NOT a 1st choice for a true collector.If you know those cars here is what you want..same year 1978 400 4 SPEED WS6 W72 Car It will smoke this TA on the Spot..4 Speed Trans Ams are the way to go and on top of that you want the W72 Perf PKG and handling WS6..Period.Color does NOT matter..I Have a Martinique blue WS6 W72 4 speed 400 W Build sheet..

  • 3:38 gives me goosebumps everytime. This is my dream car. About how much would something like this probably cost in 20 years?

  • Looks great, my brother in law just got the same one, same year.

    He is now fully restoring it and keeping it original too.

    As original in keeping the same radio in it.

    Too bad you have a cd player in it, not original.

    But we all make tiny mistakes, great job though!

  • there is no car on earth I want more than the black 1978 t-top trans am

  • DAMN I WANT THIS CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • this is the best trans am i've seen on youtube.com....my pops had an oringinal 1978 se ... same interior deluxe velor. & those are the original honeycomb rims from the 78 se.... 1 thing I've never seen is any other 78TA se have is a firebird hood ornament which was pretty original... I wonder why... pretty unique I guess.... oh yeah if any body knows why ... holla ..1

  • fuck porn, i got this to jack off to lol

  • Nice Trans Am. I can tell this uses a 77's graphics and '79 and later tops/roof. I love how it's hopped up over stock. Great car...

  • I would've thought the burnout would be bigger, but I guess you don't want to make the client's tires bald. At least I assume he let off the throttle a bit.

  • man I got a 1978 firebird, shes my daily driver. got the origional 231 6 cylinder in it. I want to drop an 8 in it and get the interior redone. I am more interested in a less than restored but high performance job, interior restored to origional, suspension, rear end and thats about it. Again I dont want it to be a perfect fully restored car but I want it to be really nice and reliable with some performance. Body is in perfect condition with a nice paint job. Could you give me an estimate?

  • put a fast ez efi in that TA

  • If I only had the money!!!!! What a beauty!!!

  • like the car a lot but have you ever restored a hurst hatch car and if you have is there vids on youtube?

  • Motherfucker forgot to call the white house

  • hey how much would it be to restore one for me? it has all matching numbers, but it doesnt start, allready tried new starter, battery, etc.... so engine blow? idk i got it from a friend for 100 bucks... :S

  • i had a 78 just like this one..only differnece was. mine didnt have the eagle on the hood.. I wish i had another!

  • beauty of a car, great job. One day I'd love to own one of these.

  • You do great work. Tommy Denic sold me one that was supposedly 'restored'. I have vids on utube keyword 'tdenic'. Tell me what you think about my TA??

  • I dont know who is Tomyy Denic, but that car you show there is far from "restored".

  • Looks the same as the one on rocky 2

  • ugh makes me want one so much more!!!

  • car looks perfect and very clean

    want a job restoring mine now?

  • absolutelym call 305.412.5000

  • out of all the t/a i've seen on here yours is restored to the best detail and i'm picky when it comes to that !so far your the only peron i've seen that i'd trust to restore mine going by the detail of yours! so i will absolutly be given you a call

  • Cutting Crew " I just died in your arms tonight" ftw 5/5

    T/A 's something GM never should've axed... pure Americana

  • Thats my lottery car

  • Sick Trans Am. Way to go by releasing it's real power. I have a 79 and it runs good, but I want to make mine run like this someday. This one flies like hell! What was the 0-60? It looked like 5 seconds lol. These cars are powerful and can run with anything. Pontiac power!

    At least I know where to get stuff for my Trans Am now. Trans Am Florida kicks ass.

  • how much HP do these TA produce

  • @drtrash11 Stock they produced around 220 hp. Its not that much power, but you have to consider many things of the late 70s and then youll understand why the firebird went from almost 360 or 370 hp to 220hp.

  • @Nachor4 thats reasonable for this car. I think the 1974 formula 400 produced over 300HP right? But this car looks great. Even beter than my 2000 TA.

  • @drtrash11 Yeah, you got that right. Then, with the oil crisis and the enviromental laws, the engines where enourmous but the didnt produce too muche power. But, what the hell 220 its more than enough to feel it on your back right? Hehe. Take care man. Greetings from Argentina.

  • Listening to the wheels sqeal can put right to sleep...I just love it. Beautiful TA!

  • I like to hear someone speak who has an eye for detail!!! Good Job my friend.

  • sucks no more pontiac!!!!!

  • Nice video on the car but I really really hate this guys attitude about his oak trees. Just another green go with a fucked up attitude.

  • wow thats my favorite body T/A And Thats My Fav Color In That Car Black With The Golden Eagle

  • You restore it and the first thing you do ist spinning starts?

    Hmmm. :(

  • The car was built to do what you see in the video, quaility and best parts were used, no need to be affraid, it wont break down, we build quality engines that can and will tolerate this and more, all of them have elctronic Rpm limiter. YOU GET A RELIABLE MACHINE HERE MEANT TO BE DRIVEN.

  • can i have a job

  • So much power. I would love to own one. I have an 84 but the 78 or 77 Trans Am is my dream car.

  • though I'm a Mustang fanatic this piece is very sweet

  • Oh no I would never try that at home ....lol ....

  • Damn! I luv that sound. That's a mean-ass sound!

  • I am getting a 79, similar to this one next week! My dream car! This Trans Am is sick, what is all done to it? I want to do the same thing to mine. Where can I get stuff for my Trans Am?

  • Who the feck needs AC ? Do you live in the jungle or what ?

  • yes in the Jungle, Miami, where you and everyone wish to be now , no snow, sunny year round, beautiful beaches and hot girls everywhere. And BTW this car is a factory A/C car.

  • for firebird hood decals look online for a company called Phoenix Graphics. They have factory approved replicas.

  • do you guys know where i can get a firebird painted on my 2000 Pontiac Firebird TRANS AM WS6's hood like the one in the pic

  • *vid

  • we are dealers for phoenix graphics , GM licensed decals, we have special prices this week, call us at 305.412.5000

  • ebay

  • We have Dick Heads like that here, that cut our trees on out nature strips down, i feel your pain, at least you got the guys, nice car i drove a turbo trans am for a week hear in Oz and man did that car go.5*

  • what exhaust are on this? and headers?

  • Beautiful car , but i would have gone with a replica factory radio that plays mps etc year one has them, beautiful car though

    best of luck w/ it

  • 2 questions...........

    1, are you sure it isnt aftermarket t tops?

    2, could it be the smaller t tops?

  • I've got a question, I am looking at buying a 78 TA and the t-tops don't go back as far as the window does, but on the 78 TA that I already have the t-tops go all the way to the back of the window. Is there a reason for this?

  • you wil find 3 types of t tops on TA's

    1- Hurst t tops 1976-march1978 small ones

    2- fisher t tops bigger than hurst march 1978-1981

    3- concept t tops, this were not factory installed but many Ta's had them installed afyerwards, they are somewhat rare and they cover the whole roof and have less leaks than factory ones.

  • Thanks it must be the Hurst t-tops

    you really know your TAs

  • Experts

  • Damn Guatas.

    Beautiful job on the car.

  • I just bought a 'beaut off Ebay. Keyword (tdenic) If YOU'RE pissed you have to look at this!

  • However now that Pontiac is shut down within the next year or 2 they will probably jump in price by alot.

  • what exhaust does he have on that? Sounds like a `cuda.

  • yeah it does sounds like a mopar

  • how could you mistake a Pontiac 400 for anything else

  • My dream car.

  • Nice work. Even the decal placement is spot on.

  • Wow, just awesome! And how nice it sounds... Perfect. BTW, what is THE place for buying restorated Trans Am to overseas? I´m living in Finland and maybe some day I can buy one of those babies... Redline muscle cars is in Oklahoma, but are there any reliable dealers in Florida or east coast?

  • very nice car!

  • i wouldint say they were that rare, im in uk and theres a few for sale over here, around £8-10k thats what $14k+

  • fully restored you got to l
