Listing Description

1981 PONTIAC NASCAR TRANS AM INDY 500 PACE CAR (FACTORY \"Y85\" OPTIONED CAR) WITH ULTRA RARE FACTORY RECARO INTERIOR, WITH FACTORY GLASS T-TOPS. Super cool cruiser with lots of power and character. LOTS OF WORK DONE ON THIS GORGEOUSLY STRAIGHT MUSCLE CAROPTIONS: Power SteeringPower DISC BrakesPower WindowsV8 EngineTurbo Hydramatic TransmissionDual Exhaust Stock Aluminum Wheels w/White Letter Radial TiresNASCAR INDY 500 PACE CAR Package (this is a REAL NASCAR Pace Car) GlassT-Tops Stock RECARO InteriorSuper nice and straight body. No evidence of accidents from what I saw. NO waviness, very straight body with original panels! Excellent gaps. Doors open and close perfect! Paint still shows well although it was done a while back. I actually owned this car a few years ago and by some stroke of luck I got it back from a dealer that purchased it from the fellow I sold it to. It\'s virtually in the same shape I left it, but runs better and has had some minor upgrades like a rebuilt carburetor, NEW battery and NEW aluminum radiator.Interior has the factory RECARO style seats and door panels with red inserts. This really makes the car stand out and you just don\'t seem them around anymore as they are virtually all gone or in high dollar collections. All in good driver quality shape. SOLID FRAME and EXCELLENT FLOORBOARDS as well with GOOD trunk! Mechanically it runs/drives great! This car originally came equipped with an anemic and powerless 4.9L turbocharged engine boasting a puny 200hp. It\'s been upgraded to a 6.6L 400ci 300hp Pontiac engine for better reliability and performance. Car starts right up, runs beautifully and drives nice and straight with nice shifting transmission. Car is TURN-KEY and will drive anywhere!Priced at $12500. Find another one this nice for that price. Trans Ams are getting harder to find now.
