1978 Trans am build

[classiccarfixers]

I have been building my pro touring trans am for several years now. I thought I would start a project thread and post what has been accomplished so far. I started with a very solid Western 1978 Trans am, the original intent was to build a basic stock driver. After getting it torn down it started to take on a new direction. I wanted to stick with a pontiac engine and not do an ls conversion. I found an 1969 428 block and started with that as the foundation for the engine build. The front sub frame will be replaced with the Detroit Speed sub frame and the rear suspension replaced with the Heidt IRS and 9" rear end. I also did the Detroit Speed mini tub and converted the door handles to Kindig it door handles.
