I’ve officially fallen in love with the 2nd gen T/A. The look, the scarcity, the graphics. I hope they aren’t unreasonably priced for a decent project car when I get out of college and into stable finances (around 10 years).

Right now projects are around $3-8k and restored is $25-40k for the later models.

My friends dad had one exactly like this. It was gorgeous. Sandy came and ruined it though... ugh..

The second nose looks really nice with all the gold, better than the third “Bandit” nose.

Personally I prefer it without all the bling but definitely my favorite Transmaro body style.

A 79-81 model with a 70-73 nose would be just right.

The 78 TA is the best year. It has the cool front end and the bigger T-tops (the 76-77 had smaller tops, and the 79-81 front is hideous)

I so badly want to build one of these with a turbo LS motor.

Will they fit? I know on Camaros they changed the fenders after ‘77. Besides, to me you’re doing it backward.

I’ll meet you in the middle, sell you mine for $5k ;)

I installed a stereo on one of these a long time ago for a friend. It’s an interesting looking car, but a mechanical pile of crap, and the ride is miserable. But as a weekend fun car, it could work.
