Ground Up Restored Trans Am Restomod 461 Stroker V8 5-speed Air Cond.
Ground Up Restored Trans Am Restomod 461 Stroker V8 5-speed Air Cond. ///
In a comprehensive restoration that was fully documented in a seven part series on the RK Motors blog, this Pontiac transformed from a solid, original pony car into a sorted, world class pro-tourer. The car's nut-and-bolt build began with a hit-free, 36K-mile body that, save for some cracked urethane and a bit of surface rust, needed no noteworthy repairs. With epoxy and primer nice and dry, hours of block sanding created super smooth surfaces for custom Black Sapphire Pearl that was mixed right here at the RKM Performance Center. Two stages of wet sanding led hours of intricate buffing. And, in preparation for the owner's cross-country road trip back home, we spent roughly 400 miles making sure this classic was fully sorted and ready to roll. Under the hood, an original, all-Pontiac stroker turns 461 cubic inches of displacement into 479 dyno-proven horsepower and a massive 594 lb./ft. of torque! Behind the potent engine, a tough Tremec TKO600 5-speed spins a twists a restoration-fresh 12-bolt. That powder-coated pumpkin makes excellent use of a forged pinion, 35-spline chromoly axles, Torino ends and 3.55 gears that are paired with a locker differential. A full Detroit Speed suspension follows power rack-and-pinion steering with quality JRi coil-overs. Stops are provided by 12 and 13-inch drilled and slotted rotors, the latter of which get clamped by monochromatic Baer calipers. And at the corners, attractive Rally II replicas spin 275/40ZR18 Nitto NT555s. Between the doors, original buckets wrap crisp Legendary vinyl around fresh padding. An original dash frames modern air conditioning next to modern audio. A fresh Ames Performance console features an artful SST shifter. And the driver spins an Ames Performance Formula Wheel around a tilting column. Call, click or visit https://www.RKMotors.com for more information on this awesome Trans Am!
