Yes, the Hurst T-Tops, AC and the Pontiac 400 (not the Olds 403) are a MUST. I will have a fully restored one at some point in my garage. My wife already knows it, there is no discussion to it. lol.

There is a lot of chatter about the t-tops. If you actually want to enjoy riding and driving the car, make sure it doesn't have those fucking godawful '70s GM t-tops. Yes I understand it "makes" the S&B car, but they are really bad when it comes to leaks, rattles, and sometimes picking up and flying off on the highway.

PS, I'd rather have a red '73. Best combination of nose, bird, color, back window, and engine.





PSS, I've been white trash a long, long time. This was my dad's '77 Trans Am SE (Special Edition) which is the same model used in the movie.

I've rebuilt a Pontiac 400 before. Those 6x heads are heavy as hell. It took 2 people with a pry bar to get those head bolts loose.

Haha, most likely it will have a modified motor that will appear stock to give it a lil more power and a lumpy cam.

Definitely will be a fun ride. Love the trans am from that movie. I just wish the third movie never happened
