It goes without saying that cars like this are almost impossible to find. I believe that it would be extremely difficult if not impossible to find a better example of a well-optioned, unrestored Trans Am with this level of original paperwork. This car has been beautifully preserved for over four decades and is ideal for a collector looking for the best.
