That is AWESOME!!!!! I can appreciate it and like it a lot. Bad news is. Its just so far out of my budget it may as well be a million dollars.



Edit: Just learned its a Camaro turned into a TA. A company somewhere is making them. I have no more info on it.

I posted pics of a convertible last year.
23rd Lake of the Ozarks Shootout
I talked to the owner of the car for half an hour. This one wasn't built buy transamdepot. It was the 3rd car the company built and then They went up. That's was his wife's car, he had the only t-top the same company built.

Also on page 1 there's pics of the corvet boat stangkilla posted the link to for the for sale ad.

Same year, now if Chevy decides to make the 6th gen Camaro look like the 2nd gen and somebody make that into a Bandit clone, then and only then I might show some interest.

That track the car is at looks famliar, is it in the Forza series?

Man I would kill for a Year One Bandit T/A. I have a Firebird right now I'm going to make a T/A clone from.

The 5th gen car is nice, but I'm just not that into it. I believe the guy who built the first 5th gen T/A is over on a couple of Trans Am sites I'm on. He had one for sale on eBay not too long ago.

I wish they would re make that movie, they have everything else. They would probably have some stupid new actor playing the bandit tho. There were some movies in the 90's based on Smokey and the Bandit that had a black Dodge Stealth RT/TT in it.

That Year One TA looks pretty sweet, but the new model one looks pretty... crappy. I mean look at the difference between these two cars! It's ridiculous!

Wait a minute. Pontiac is not in business. So no, no new smokey and the bandit.

How about Ashton Kutcher as the Bandit, Kristen Stewart as Frog, Jack Black as the Snowman and Will Ferrel as Buford T. Justice? And iPhones instead of CB radios?

No thanks. Gives me stomach cramps just thinking about it.
