Fort Lauderdale, Florida
My pride and joy! I had looked for years trying to find a replacement for the 1980 black Turbo Trans Am that I had to trade in. I recently learned that it was totaled when the guy’s wife hit a cow with it. I finally found this one a couple of years ago and couldn’t resist. I still wish I had my first one though; a black one and a gold one would look sweet in my driveway.
