There is a nice TTA for sale on ebay, of course the price unrealistic, but we have seen this before.
Pontiac Firebird Trans Am | eBay

Observation: It has a build sheet with it-first time I have seen one of those with a TTA. Anybody have one? I see it says PAS on it. Pretty cool.

Question: On the plastic radiator support-does anyone else have that 'squiggly" line kind of molded into the plastic? Mine is like that and I thought it was damaged or had been exposed to heat when it was being worked on. Just curious to why it is there.
 
That car is pretty nice, however it appears to have had the exhaust tips removed and re-welded back on. Also it is missing the converter cover. I would expect at that price that it would be an all original un modded car.

I think my cars have those swirly things too.
 
That's the build sheet that PAS removed and put into the folder for each of our cars ... they are all in safe hands apparently however for us to get access to them that is a different story ... Scott Kelly promised to get them all back / or get access to them all to scan and share with us all ... so fingers crossed.

I've seen a couple but would love a copy of mine as they do contain all the info pertaining the build of the car.

For the plastic radiator piece; the wave pattern you see is due to the plastic flowing into the mold and cooling down unevenly or slightly too quick; that kind of creates odd patterns in the final product. No requirement for a pretty looking part or they would have done them differently (but cost more $$$).
 
Jan you are dead on w/the Rad. piece, both of mine have it; and yes that is a interesting car that w mcicker speak's of..
 
For only having 9k miles and the astronomical asking price, the car better be a time capsule museum piece, and its not. Along with the aforementioned converter inspection cover and tips welded back on, the factory airbox is missing as well.
 
And, no hoodliner, cut out stock turbo shield for 3" downpipe, not stock appearing turbo, saggy headliner, just to name a few. Lets not forget the nice key fob in the owners kit!

Well I hope they get for it what it is worth!

Looks like the tranny cross member is hacked as well, what is that rod welded on there?? Not to mention the intake hoses are incorrect.
 
I think those are subframe connectors. Lots of little nuances for a low mile car with a big price tag
 
well... if you would load your car on the trailer, then go out and drive it in 1320 foot increments, all of a sudden "low miles" has a whole different meaning? DontKnow:
 
Or instead of a trailer u disconnect the odometer drive it for years then reconnect and waaaalla low milage TTA.:detective:
 
Cool build sheet. I was going to say I have a sheet but it doesn't have nearly as much info. As that one. I hope Scott can score them. As for the rad shroud. Mine has those lines also.
