The second generation of the Trans Am replaced the 'Coke bottle' styling with a more 'swoopy' body style, with the top of the rear window line going almost straight down to the lip of the trunk lid--a look that was to epitomize F-body styling for the longest period during the Firebird's lifetime. In 1977 emissions restrictions tightened which means 1976 was the last of the 'Big Cube Birds,' with only 7,100 units produced with the 455 engine. The 455 engine available in the second generation Firebird Trans Am was arguably the last high-performance engine of the original muscle car generation. This particular T/A is exactly that. Boasting its original, numbers matching 455 CID V8. Backing this beast is the original 4 speed manual transmission. This 3 owner car has just under 32,000 miles. This Bird would spend its downtime in a climate controlled facility ever since 1991. The only thing added to this all original beauty is a set of 'true-dual' exhaust in January 2014. Black was finally offered on a T/A this year, but only about 2590 of them. This exterior is draped in the limited Starlite Black, and was repainted with lacquer in 1991. The hood is emblazoned with...

The 1976 model was part of he ninth generation for Cadillac Eldorado's, produced from 1971-1978. For 1975, the Eldorado was given rectangular headlamps, a new egg crate grille, four wheel openings sans fender skirts and sharper, crisper lines resulting in a sleeker appearance appearance reminiscent of 1967-70 models. These styling cues carried over for the '76 model year but changed slightly with a new grill with the word Cadillac written in Script on the driver's side top corner. The 1976 Eldorado was a very successful car to sell, approximately 14000 were sold because at the time GM claimed they would no longer be producing convertibles. That was true the next 8 years.

The Eldorado has long been associated with Cadillac and was always at the top of Caddy's hierarchy with the models. The term Eldorado translates from Spanish to mean 'The Gilded One' or 'The Golden One'. Others use the term to refer to El Dorado, the mythical South American 'Lost City of Gold' that fascinated Spanish explorers. Sounds pretty fancy!

The body looks incredibly straight and there is evidence that the paint is original! For square body Chevy trucks this is a little bit of a rarity!

The drivetrain is the highly respected 400 V8, with GM strong 3 speed automatic transmission, Dana 44 front axle, and 12 bolt rear end spinning 3. 73:1 gears. The odometer shows just over 50,000 miles which the current owner believes to be original and put on about 4,000 of those miles.

The exterior is reported to be a 76 only color combination and is wearing 70s two tone in Spring Green and Willoway Green! The interior is also green!

The truck is reported to have spent much of its early life as a Montana ranch vehicle - lending credit to the superb survivorship condition of the body. The current owner has had possession for a little over 4 years, and the selling dealership reported their acquisition was from the 2nd owner. In short, a case can be made for the current owner being the 3rd owner.

The current owner did some extensive research to document the truck to his standards coming up with some very unique tidbits on the truck. He also did a...

The Chevrolet Corvette (C3) is a sports car that was produced from 1967 to 1982 by Chevrolet for the 1968 to 1982 model years. Engines and chassis components were mostly carried over from the previous generation, but the body and interior were new. It set new sales records with 53,807 produced for the 1979 model year. The C3 is the third generation of the Chevrolet Corvette, and marks the second time the Corvette would carry the Stingray name, though only for the 1969 - 1976 model years. This time it was a single word as opposed to Stingray as used for the 1963 - 1967 C2 generation. The name would then be retired until 2014 when it returned with the release of the C7. In 1975, service intervals were extended and electronic ignition and the federally mandated catalytic converter were introduced with 'unleaded fuel only' warnings on the fuel gauge and filler door. Dual exhaust pipes were...
