Hello Bandit,
Always liked the 65----color--bluemist slate??

Very nice----
Have to ask--the name Bandit--it's from the Burt Reynolds movies--right???----

The color is code "B" for Blue Charcoal.
The color is stunning in the sun with all the metallic. It varies in the sun/shade etc. Looks like it changes. It is the factory correct color.

Yes Bandit is from good old Burt Reynolds. See picture attached on the advertisement for the 1981 Turbo Trans Am Special Edition. It has Burt sitting on the top with the CB microphone in his hand. Check out my website and you can see my 81 Bandit TA. It has the factory CB radio also. It is built in the AM/FM radio. It even works.
That TA is also for sale. It has 41,000 documented owner history miles. Its a nice cruise night car. Slooooow but nice!

Bandit,
I can look at nice gto's all day long--Didn't realize the GTO market had gone that high--but I'm always a 1/2 a step behind the times.---Again Nice goat--JoeG /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

JoeG,
Thanks for the praise.
The GTO market in general is up.
The early 70-72 TA's and 73-74 Super Duty TA's have also shot up. I have been following them for years now, daily.

Was the Trans Am in the Smokey and the Bandit movie a 79 model?

[Bandit]

Smokey and the Bandit (1977 model year)
Smokey and the Bandit II (1981 model year)
Smokey and the Bandit III (1983 model year) ??

They also make Special Edition TA's (Bandits) for 1978, 1979 and 1980
Hope this helps.

Does the 81 TA have a round handle Hurst Shifter? I think Camaro used the Hurst from 69 to 71 but the TA used the Hurst 69 to 81?

[Bandit]

No Hurst shifter here. The TA's used to put a shifter that can be toggled to the right and shifted thru the gears. This one does not have that. My 79 TA did. I beleive the shifters are the same for Camaro's and TA's.

[JoeC]

I am talking about the 4 speed. The 70-71 Camaro shifter is different then the TA shifter. The TA had two or there different round handle hurst levers (4 speed) I have been trying to figure out which is which because I have seen at least 4 different Hurst round handle 4 sp shift levers from 69 to about 79.
The Smokey and the Bandit movies were cool /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

I had to have a musclecar when I saw Burt fly out the back of the semi with the TA. I was hooked at 11 years old!

JOE, THE 69 SHIFTER IS DIFFERENT FROM THE 70-81 SHIFTER, BUT IS SHARED WITH BOTH F BODYS. AS FOR THE SHIFTER CHANGING THRUOUT THE 70'S, MY ONLY ANSWER IS MAYBE WHEN THEY SWITCHED TO THE T-10 TRANNY IS WHEN THEY CHANGED THE SHIFTER. DON /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif
