The car looks to be in original paint. The paint is very faded and old with the Special Edition decals faded right into the paint. Because the paint does appear to be original it's obvious that there was never any damage repair to this car. It appears straight and sits level on its wheels. I drove this car in many years ago. The engine is not the original block. It is a 400 Pontiac which is what the car should have. I was told the engine was rebuilt and it did run fine but I would put no trust in the previous owner's statement. I have not started it in the last eight years as I would have taken the engine in to be freshened at least. The body is solid. The little rust that there is can be corrected with those little $30 patch panels from Performance Years. The front floors are rusty as there was obviously water standing in them at some point. In my opinion the t-tops leaked as you can see the water line on the inside of the front floors. It's only the very bottoms. The rears are fine and are clean with paint showing. The trunk will require a small patch. Frames are clean. Still covered in paint. It will need a shaker assembly as I used it on a different car. My shop is a heated shop with concrete floors. The air is circulated and dried. The car has not deteriorated since I bought it and brought it home. My intent was to resto mod this one as I already have a 77 SE with 20k original miles on it. This car is a reasonably easy restoration project. It's has no unusual or any power options. It is a W-72 4 speed SE. Please contact me for additional pictures or information. I have had several Trans Ams and know these cars pretty well. Look for more cars as I have several more to sell. There will be a 78 4 speed Y88, 79 4 speed SE hardtop, 78 hardtop, 81 turbo SE. I may sell the 77. Thanks
