Build story
1976 pontiac trans am
Bought it in October 2009. Rebuilt the pontiac 400 engine and th350 transmission. Installed Hotchkis lowering suspension and subframe connectors.
Started Doing body and paint work in 2013 car was in peices in a garage for 9 years put it back on the road in 2022. Car is in primer and door jambs were painted hugger orange (carousel red) single stage.
In 2024 I was laid off from work and decided to do a quick and cheep paint job on the car. I bought Kubota orange tractor paint from home hadrware and used automotive hardener and reducer to make a cheap single stage paint. Hugger orange is a very close match to kubot orange. I set up a cheep car canopy in my driveway and painted the car in sections because the tent wasn't big enough to do it all at once. All in probably painted the car for around $200. The car was featured in Deboss Garage youtube video with Derek Bieri from Vice Grip Garage when they had a meet and greet in Dunnville Ontario in September 2024.
