SUNRISE AUTOMOTIVE LLC IS PROUD TO OFFER THIS AWESOME 1979 PONTIAC TRANS AM! I SHOT 486 PICTURES TO EXPOSE THE PAINT PROCESS, UST FREE CALIFORNIA BODY, SSENTIALLY ONE OWNER / EXTENSIVE SERVICE DOCUMENTATION FROM DAY ONE!
THIS SOLAR GOLD TRANS AM WAS BUILT IN THE GM VAN NUYS CALIFORNIA PLANT ON 4/10/79 AND SHIPPED TO JACK AMICK MOTORS INC. IN AUBURN CALIFORNIA. THIS T/A WAS PURCHASED NEW BY LARRY DOWDRICK ON 5/23/79. MR. DOWDRICK OWNED THIS PONTIAC UNTIL 4/30/2010 ALMOST 31 YEARS! THE SERVICE RECORDS ON THIS CAR IS PHENOMENAL! OVER 100 PIECES!! LARRY KEPT THIS TRANS AM SERVICED LIKE CLOCKWORK. IT WOULD VERY HARD TO CONVEY ALL THE DOCUMENTATION CONCERNING THIS CAR, OWEVER THE NEW OWNER INHERITS ALL OF IT. WE ACQUIRED THIS CAR FROM ANOTHER DEALER ON 2/8/11. I PERSONALLY DROVE THIS CAR THE LAST 4 YEARS BEFORE I DECIDED TO TEAR IT DOWN AND PAINT IT RECENTLY.
SINCE THE CAR WAS ROCK SOLID AND DROVE EXCELLENT I LEFT THE DRIVE TRAIN IN AND PAINT IT APART. BEING ASSEMBLED IN VAN NUYS CALIFORNIA THIS CAR WAS PAINTED WITH WATERBOURNE PAINT DUE TO STRINGENT AIR EMISSIONS. I DID LEAVE THE ORIGINAL PAINT ON THE FLOOR PANS AND SIDE COWLS CONSIDERING THEY WERE IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION.
PAINT PROCESS: (PLEASE VIEW THE PICTURES)
STRIPPED THE SHELL AND ALL PARTS COMPLETELY REMOVED BOTH DOORS AND MEDIA BLASTED JAMS REFINISHED 4 WHEEL FLARES AND 4 PIECES OF WELTING 3 REAR SPOILERS, ECK LID, ILLER PANEL, HIN SPOILER, 2 FENDER AIR EXTRACTORS, FENDERS, RONT AND REAR BUMPERS, HAKER, HINGE SPRINGS, HINGE PINS, OOD, MIRRORS 4 PIECES, TRUNK BOLTS. 38 INDIVIDUAL PIECES PAINTED IN ALL!!!!

INTERIOR: ALL NEW HOBNAIL LOMBARDY CLOTH SEATS, nbsp;NEW DOOR PANELS COMPLETE NEW WEATHERSTRIPS, nbsp;NEW CARPET, OS SHIFTER PLATE.
THIS CAR IS CORRECT, T RUNS AND DRIVES AWESOME, nbsp;I REPLACED THE HEATER CORE IN THE PROCESS AND CLEANED THE HEATER BOX AND ALL THE DUCT WORK FOR A FRESH CLEAN SMELL. THE A/C IS COLD. THE ORIGINAL CATALYTIC CONVERTER IS STILL GOOD! THE FUEL TANK IS NEW .
