Title: 1975 Buccaneer Red 455HO 4 speed
Post by: Dreamn2 on December 23, 2022, 10:58:33 AM
As if one wasn't enough, I also picked up this original 455HO 4 speed car this past June. it is an original paint car that had been sitting inside a garage with the original engine pulled since the late 80's - early 90's. Motor is currently being rebuilt. here are a few pics:

I had a silver one of those with the red interior back in 78-79. Rare car, only 857 made, all are 4 speeds. It was my first Pontiac and got me hooked on Trans Ams.

That is a real gem that doesn't need anything but elbow grease.  3 pedals, a 455, honeycombs, horse collar seats, you can't beat that!

That is amazing! How do you find these things? It would ne extremely had for me to sell that and I don't like solid roof cars. That thing is sexy!

Another cool find find. Funny thing, is that I haven't seen "any" Bucky red cars, with a maroon interior, until my 73 Texas car. (not that I'm a fan of that color combo). Would rather have black or white. Now you have one too. Just a matter of preference I guess. Also love the fact it's a 455, 4 spd, stripper...no AC. Looks like a nice driver. Good luck on the resto.
