82 TransAm Recaro Edition



My wife and I bought this 82 Recaro 6/9/03 and there were alot of things under the hood that just was't right, pictures will be posted for easier reference. I really wish I knew what the previous owners were thinking when they worked on this car.

I might have copied some of the O's as zeros or vice versa, hard to tell with stamped plates.


here are some of the first day pics, forgive me if they take a while to load I am still working on that problem.

Doesn't look like the greatest does it? A few months a couple Grand and little TLC and she will be almost perfect.

Here are a few pics after a little work on the engine and a quick middle of the night car wash.


As you can see from the carb, I haven't managed to fix all the rigging that has been done in the engine bay.

Unfortunately, After replacing the head gaskets this beast isn't running much anymore. I am still in the process of finding the problem and a way to unrig the carb.
