Y88 SPECIAL EDITION TRANS AM

The car has the original motor and automatic transmission. It runs great and even catches a little tire shifting into second gear. The car had been sitting in a heated garage for 15 years before I found it and completed the restoration in 2018. The car is documented, and a copy of the original invoice is included. The original gold tinted T tops with storage bags are there along with original unused mini spare tire and jack assembly. New BF Goodrich TA tires and original owner's manual and some other market brochuresare included.

The car is located just north of Houston, Texas and can be delivered within a reasonable distance for free. I would prefer not to sell it at Mecum Houston auction, so I have a reasonable reserve on it.
