1978 Pontiac Trans Am Super Bandit Additional Info:
Car was bought as a running driver in need of some TLC. I wanted a fast street car and over the years have modified it quite a bit. Drives around town on pump gas without problems. Chance to own a true Classic! Must see to appreciate all the added features. Contact Kevin for more information, (620) 200-6295.
