I purchased this car as a roller, previous owner had intended to make a pro touring and had sold off engine and trans then lost interest.
I am a master certified ase technician since 1980, also the year of the first f body I purchased, probably 20 f bodys since 1980
It took a lot of parts from 3 different vehicles, 1979 truck for engine, 1979 trans am for super t10, 1978 f body for all brackets and under hood items.
Engine is a .030 over 400 small block truck engine with a mild cam, holley 1850 carb, starter and alternator rebuilt at local shop
Trans super t10 was opened up and inspected, 11 inch bellhousing and pressure plate. New flywheel
Many new parts Windshield, Aluminum Radiator, Headers, H pipe Exhaust, Carpet, Sof seal door seals, brake lines, fuel lines, etc
Rear axle posi 3.73 ratio
All a/c parts have been reinstalled but have not been charged with freon
Car has a near flawless paint job with great attention to detail
Interior minor signs of wear passenger seat has about a 3/4 inch spot on bottom
The last time i drove vehicle radio was cutting out at time but will include another same radio
As I said in beginning of listing I have had many fbodys and this is the cleanest in 30 years, cleaner than my keeper. I don't know much history of this car but can tell is has had high end work done to body it seems like its all metal. The right 1/4 panel has had some work because the pinch weld is not a factory weld. The body is straight an gets all the compliments when seen. All pinch welds including lower doors are clean, trunk is solid, no spare tire or jack. 
I like it but get mixed views on steering wheel it has a Trans Am steering wheel with a z28 cap in center, tilt column.
Car drives straight down the road, tight, has had an alignment.
I don't have enough documents or history but tend to believe by the condition of this car that the mileage is correct.
Please call with questions I just sold another car and asked the buyer if my description of vehicle was good and accurate and he said yes. Its hard to list everything so call. 
please contact to ask questions Ken 586-382-1356
Vehicle is for sale local and reserve the right to end auction early.
I don't get involved with shipping, I will make myself and car available if buyer makes all shipping arrangements.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.

Chevrolet SS previewed by Holden VF Commodore SS V show car

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

It won't be long before we see the official, production-ready Chevrolet SS sedan (hint: it will be revealed this weekend). And to tide us over until all of the official details are released about the US-spec version, we have this: the Holden VF Commodore SS V show car, a performance-oriented brother to the Calais V that debuted earlier in the week.
What we really want to know about the SS V is what lies underhood, but General Motors' Australian arm is keeping that under wraps until the Chevy model breaks cover this weekend. Nevertheless, it's obvious that the SS V will be a serious performer, with all sorts of aggressive cues driving that home on the car's exterior. Take a look at those 20-inch billet aluminum wheels that hide big Brembo brake calipers up front, the sculpted hood and front fascia, the wide air intakes with LED running lights and the quad exhaust pipes out back. It's like the Pontiac G8 GXP never even left us.
Inside, there's a sporty-looking interior with aluminum accents that mix in with black leather and suede surfaces, all tied together in the middle with an eight-inch MyLink touchscreen infotainment system. It looks great, and again, while we don't know anything regarding powertrain details, it makes us oh-so happy to see a manual shifter smack dab in the middle of the center console.
