Red '83 Trans Am This 1983 Trans Am belongs to Ross Meyers of Templestowe, Australia. The car was purchased in 1983 already converted to right hand drive from another Australian for $19,000 Australian (about $15,000 US). The previous owner had swapped the 305 for a 350 but kept the original cross-fire injection setup. He'd also added a new cam that proved to be to much for the car and caused it to barely idle during cold weather. Needless to say it didn't take long before Ross got tired of the car stalling so a new cam was selected and provided by a local cam company (Crow Cams). During the installation of the new cam he found out the heads had some cracks so new ones were bought and installed. A new Hypertech chip, a rear wing, stiffer suspension bushings, and host of new stereo equipment were also added. Ross has posted a best time of 15.47 @ 88mph.

This cool looking convertible WS6 Trans Am comes to us from an owner who lives only minutes from the (now closing :^( ) Plant in St. Therese that built the Firebirds. Michael Glazer owns this one. Michael writes:

     "Hi there, I just came across your site. Pretty cool! Here are some pics of my 2001 Ram Air Trans Am WS-6 convertible! I live about 10 minutes away from the GM plant where they make these babies, so I drove up there and took a whole bunch of pics of the plant. (You’ll notice it in one of the pics..) As a matter of fact, if you’re interested, I could send you the 15 or so pics of the plant which you could put up as a special section on your site… All the best!"

This entry marks the second time a Firebird has been located in two different lots.

This Trans Am is owned by Svein Arne Holmedal. Svein writes:

     "Hello again! The car came to Norway in '81 - '82, then it was blue. I have painted it red and changed the color inside from white to red and black. The car has been restored outside as you can see. It was original when it came to Norway. Specifications of the Trans Am:

Year Model: 1979 Trans Am
Engine: 403, w/ Holley 600cfm carb
Gear: TH350/ safe-T-Trac rear
Wheels:  295/265-15

The car was converted to a convertible at National Coach Engineering of Michigan. I have seen someplace there was made about 200 convertibles built in 1979. If there is somebody that can tell me more about the car, they can write to me at: Svein Arne Holmedal"

Yves Beaupre' owns this red convertible 1977 Trans Am. Yves writes:

     "Hi, my name is Yves Beaupré, from Cantley Québec, Canada. My Trans Am '77 convertible has a 454ci engine with a 4 barrel carb under the hood, with 500 hp. The car has a black interior and a black convertible top. I started the frame-off restoration. Slowly but surely, I began to search for the broken and/or missing parts for the car. Best of all I meet people with common interests and made friends along the way. It's been a long two years but it was worth it! The only person happier than me that the car is finished is my local gas station owner! Happy motoring! I didn't just buy a car, I bought a dream."

Recently, Yves sent me some updated pics of his Trans Am showing off a new set of rims.
