bad guys black ta
was the trans am really destroyed or is it sitting in a hollywood backlot gathering dust?
shareNot 100% sure, but the TA looked pretty totalled after they rolled it and blew it up... it's gone.
shareare you even sure it's a T/A? I haven't seen this movie in many years but being a fanatic of cars even as a kid I remember the hood having the double snorkel which only came on Formulas.
shareits customized with shaker and hood scoops ...it was a nice car thats why im wondering if they used more than one and if one still exists
shareI liked it better than the vette!
shareIIRC it had the T/A fender scoops AND the Formula hood, with the T/A shaker poking thru. Odd combo, not factory, but they did the same thing on Ponch's T/A on the "CHiPs" TV show.
"As god as my witness... I thought turkeys could fly."
At the time I liked it better than the Corvette too.
shareAnd six plus years later someone finally says, because they are the same car.
I'd say that the car that got destroyed was a back up car.
I don't think it's custom... Pretty sure you COULD order the shaker WITH the dual snorkle hood on Firebird Formulas in the early 70's... but few did. Probably very, very rare. But so you know, here are some pictures...
