The Super Tuner was state of the art in 1977! With Jensen coaxial speakers!

The only 2nd gen's that where getting any Love ,where the early 1970-1973 Z28's and mostly all the Trans Am's with pontiac bigblock's-I Really liked both version's of 2nd gen fbody's and owned quite a few of them,I got lucky as all my 2nd gen's where 4 speed stick cars..My last 2nd gen was this Trans am-it was a 301 originally with a super T10 4 speed non Ttop-It had a built pontiac 400 when I bought it, That for Some reason Blew up-LOL , So That gave me the perfect excuse to put a Very mean Full roller BBC 454-I prepped the car for Street/strip but Kept the 4 speed in it-The car would not HOOK!! There was Too much power and Even with Full race slicks-it would just spin.. I had lots of fun with this 2nd gen -But with Regret ,I Had to sell it to fund another project-But I kept the Motor-The guy I sold it too Was gonna restore it back to original-I sold it to him with the original Snowflakes&amp; unmolested shaker =
