I bought this car a about two years ago. This was after my a first car, which was a 1994 firebird with a 3.4l V6 that my dad bought for me. I sold the '94 and bought this 1989 Trans Am that I saw for sale not far from my house.

It is all stock. The paint job was done shortly before i obtained the car. It was my everyday car all through my senior year of high school. The everyday driving has been replaced with a 1993 Nissan Sentra because of high gas prices making me broke.

A angle of the car that I like, really shows off all of the 80s glory.

Another shot of the car after a good cleaning, I really like taking pictures after it has had a bath

The car has the L03 305 in it. I have a flowmaster-type exhaust on it, I say 'type' because it some off-brand muffler that i bought, it really gives a low rumble that I sometime just start the car and listen to because of the pure awesomeness.

I Havent really done anything engine-wise or performance oriented. Other than an open-element air cleaner, and a 180 deg thermostat. The 305 doesn't really do much for performing, but the handling of this car is something else!

I know the springs all the way around have been replaced with something other than stock, and every bushing on the front and rear sway bars are polyeurethane. The guy that owned it before me did a ton of suspension work on the car. Everything underneath is brand new. (Shocks, Springs, Sway bar mounts, all bushings)

It handles like nothing else I have driven, I love taking high speed curves on the country roads around where I live.

I have plans for the car, its just hard saving any money trying to pay for college, gas, bills etc. etc. But there will be a time when I can build up the little 305 hopefully! I just like to cruise on the weekends in a mean looking car. Thats about it guys! Will be posting a lot more pictures soon!
