Just to add to this - I remember seeing #14 at a repair shop in Richardson, Texas about 3 or 4 years ago. Richardson is about 5-10 miles from Carrollton. It sat inside the "waiting" room - with a huge layer of dust on it. I remember it was #14. Other turbo Buick owners in the area told me...

Jan is a class-act. We are lucky to have him in the TTA community! Chris ----- 1989 Pontiac Turbo Trans Am #760 - 1,982 miles

I have never fixed the headlights on a TTA, but I have done it on a number of C4 Corvettes and it's not hard at all. The kit probably contains the 3 nylon bushings - it's just a matter of installing them (the old ones are probably nothing more than dust inside the motor). Take your time and...

Hey Jim - I'm in on this - probably for a couple sets of each style (stock and the modified ones). I won't be able to make it to the reunion, but please keep us up-to-date. Thanks! Chris ---------- 1989 Pontiac Turbo Trans Am #760 (1982 miles) 1988 Chevrolet Corvette 35th...

On the last page of the October 2009 issue of Motor Trend on the "(archive)" page, there is a short piece titled "Trans Am Greats - We shall never pass this way again". Has a nice pic of our TTA next to a '69 TA. It's pretty short, but hey, we'll take any coverage we can get! Chris...

Hey Maston - Whenever my battery drained (or I was replacing it), it did the same thing - the fan would kick on, just briefly. I don't think it has anything to do with the temp in the garage - I just think the low voltage from the battery is doing something to kick on the fan. My...

I just spoke to Jeni - she says they will ship today (Wednesday). Maston, I also PMed my phone #. Chris ---------- 1989 Pontiac Turbo Trans Am #760 (1890 miles) 1988 Chevrolet Corvette 35th Anniversary #1941/2050 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT 1983 Delorean DMC-12 1986 Toyota Supra MKII...

Having them shipped to either Maston's or UNGN's works for me. Chris ---------- 1989 Pontiac Turbo Trans Am #760 (1890 miles) 1988 Chevrolet Corvette 35th Anniversary #1941/2050 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT 1983 Delorean DMC-12 1986 Toyota Supra MKII 1985 Kawasaki Eliminator ZL900

Yep, heard of him. He was a big Pontiac collector and from what I had heard, he had some rare Pontiacs at one time. One of the magazines, can't remember which, did a story on him, I believe. Unfortunatly I never saw him or any of his cars. :( PM sent! Chris

I don't think Dick Poe still sells Pontiac. He sells others, including Toyota, but I don't think he does any GM lines anymore. Growing up in El Paso, I do remember him selling Pontiacs - would always go in and check out the latest Trans Ams. Chris ---------- 1989 Pontiac Turbo Trans Am...

Picking it up near the airport sounds good to me. I'm cool with that... Chris ---------- 1989 Pontiac Turbo Trans Am #760 (1890 miles) 1988 Chevrolet Corvette 35th Anniversary #1941/2050 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT 1983 Delorean DMC-12 1986 Toyota Supra MKII 1985 Kawasaki Eliminator ZL900

I wish I could have made it as well. It was car-buying day for the 15-year old. You know what a big day that is when it's your "first car". Looks like Jan got a real good taste of some Texas hospitality. I got to meet Jan Saturday. Great guy, with some interesting stories! Rob - looks...

Here I am! Sorry - haven't had a chance to chime in. Sunday is looking good - I think I can be there! Chris -------------------------------------- 1989 Pontiac Turbo Trans Am #760 (1850 miles) 1988 Chevrolet Corvette 35th Anniversary #1941/2050 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT 1983 Delorean...
