Rear Disc Brake Conversion Kit - 1977 Transam

<< < (6/6)

1977 Transam:
I may as well spend the little extra and make it like new.

You certainly put a lot of mileage on your ride.

I need to get out and about a bit more.

After it gets the paint job refreshed in April I'll be happier to show it off.

Bit embarrassed with the way the paint has bubbled on her.

I've had other american cars that I've put more mileage on in less time.  When all these cars were new, they were built for use (and used as) as daily transport. 

As far as being embarrassed about the paint showing it's age, don't worry about it.  What others think about your car isn't important, as long as you like it.  The paint is lifting off my car in plenty of places, but that's just what happens as they get older.  Far more important for me is that I can jump in that car and drive it to Adelaide and back with confidence that it will perform flawlessly. 

1977 Transam:
The Transam starts first time every time which is a bonus.

Guess I just need to look at the bright side.  Glass half full eh. :)

Exactly.  You own a '77 Trans Am.  How many other people do you know have one?

1977 Transam:
Not many. As long as I have money in the bank account I will keep it.

Puts a smile on so many people's faces which is what makes it worthwhile for me.

Probably the same reason why everyone in the club has one.

And I'll never get sick of that v8 sound.........
