You wouldn’t want to be driving the school bus, with a full load of screaming kids on board. My neighbours kids catch the school bus at the top of our road at 06:30am. Poor little buggers.

In my day we walked to school , no matter what the weather was !

Always loved Neon signs. Love um. The craze in FL late 90’s was neon license plate frames. They did them in all different Color’s , I had purple ones.

The white T/A is nice, and it’s a 455. Wouldn’t like to run it now tho, a 400 is bad enough but those 455’s really sucked it down.

455’s drink more fuel than a thirsty camel

It's got that big black rubber bumper as well... All is forgive for the flaming bird.

My own thirstiest car was my 1969 mustang Shelby GT500. That mother gulped it down. Around North London, it was mid single figures. It was a pound a gallon in those days as well.

74 and 75 Pontiac F bodies did have that black bumper strip, the 76 lost it and it improved the look of the car. But of course it is correct and in period for the time. Still a very nice car to own nowadays

The Firebird in all models always looked good in silver, especially with a red interior
Once the 74/75 black bumper strip was removed it improved the look for 76 .

Always thought the wheel arch “spats” or “flares” a little strange on the Trans Am’s. Yes, they looked great, certainly the front ones that run into the spoiler finished off the frontal look, but surely they should also be behind each arch to protect the body from dirt/debris etc.

a few aftermarket suppliers did do rear ones and I’ve seen a few cars with them on over the years. They look good on once fitted.

I remember me and dad buying 2 x 1982 Trans Ams in Belgium in 1982 . I thought they were so modern compared to the 1981 models. Both were black of course. They flew out.
