wow.
2001 Trans Am. New in 01, only about 35,000 miles (long winters up here.)
-one headlight (bulb not the motor)
-clutch pedal return spring
-passenger side power window regulator
-the stock tires barely made it to 23,000 miles.
-stock clutch smoked
I should mention the car has nitrous, 60+ p***** at the strip, multiple
road trips, three burnout contests, and I generally beat the living tar
out of it, but it gets the oil changed every three months, and a full
going over on a regular basis.
I'm on the stock rear end, and launch at 5 grand with drag radials,
people keep expecting it to grenade. It probably will once I get the
new clutch in this year...
