Hey guys I been around here for a long time but just recently joined up. I had my 1987 Transam since 1995 and did the engine and interior over in 2001 spending well over $20,000. Since then its basically been garaged and maybe driven 3000 miles at best due to marriage/kids. Just recently registered and insured it again so I can finally start to truly drive and enjoy this beast again. Just ordered 4 new tires and still have 4 brand new 16x8 GTA black honeycomb rims I got from Classic Industries back in 2000 still in the box. Here is what has been done so far: (any comments/suggestions/criticisms are all appreciated)

Well at least you got to keep the car. Most people I know get rid of their cars when they get married and/or have kids.

Have any pics of the car bud?

JohnnyT/A

Here is one I just took the other day. I can't figure out how to post more then 1 pic at a time on here. It pretty much looks like a sleeper. Never painted it yet.

The new rims and tires aren't on yet

Looks well preserved.

JohnnyT/A

Thanks. Yea no rust, straight body. The rear spoiler of course is toast though. When that day comes to paint it down the road I'm gonna have to get a new fiberglass one from Hawks.

Another interior

Had a lot of the interior vinyl wrapped.

I take it the console was wrapped too or it's still stock?

MY87LT

I meant dash pad. Sorry.

JohnnyT/A

The arm rest was wrapped but the dashboard is stock and stayed in perfect condition. The shift plate has some minor scratches though and the leather boot has some minor tears so I might get a new one from Hawks when there done reproducing an 85-92 automatic shift plate.

Considering dash pads are the first to crack, you've done a good job at maintaining it. What gauges do you have on the A pillar?

JohnnyT/A

There's an air/fuel ratio and fuel pressure.

JohnnyT/A

Hey guys after seeing what I have in this car so far, is there anything else that I can do to increase horsepower without having to reprogram the custom chip?? Minus nitrous and superchargers

JohnnyT/A

Anyone have any suggestions?
