Slimpsy1647545505 Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Loved the movie when I was a kid. . and enjoyed watching the "Celebrity rides" build on this car. It's a nice modern retro interpretation of the classic smokey and the bandit car. And you can own it for just under 220,000 ...icky. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Year-One-Trans-Am-signed-by-Burt-Reynolds_W0QQitemZ160182386610QQihZ006QQcategoryZ6427QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPLN SUX Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 I don't know, the LS7 addition seems pretty impressive to me. 427... 800... 427... 800... 427... 800... Maybe its just me, but 1300 all motor ponies on Sunoco 94 would be a pretty sick end to the recreation of a classic getaway car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benner Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 That's pretty sick but I'd rather just buy an LS7 with the 14K I don't have and through it in my Formula Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsey Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 I pretty much want anything that is the "Burt Reynolds" edition. Still would have went gold on the rims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImUrOBGYN Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 When I was a kid I wanted one sooo bad. That and a Countach. There was someone who lived in my apt complex in San Gabriel then who had one. I used to just go out in the parking lot and stare at it whenever I went by. I would never have a giant fucking bird or anything else for that matter on the hood of any car I own but would still do it for that one.

TTQ B4U Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 agree.....excellent looking and nicely done ride. I could do without the BR logos though, but understand. as a kid, I remember loving that car and had like three copies of hot wheels cars and several models that I built. very sexy but not for the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitrousbird Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 I'm not quite grasping where this crazy price comes from. In all honesty, how much does a restored/mint condition 79 T/A go for now stock? Now throw in 50k (includes labor) of these goodies that have been added, and there ya go. I can possibly see selling this car for more than 75k-80k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They actually built 30 of these, with different engine options. I have the show tivo'd. . it was a 3 part series . . . I believe it was on speed, but not completely sure. They basically bought 30 t/a bodies from various junk yards around the country and stripped them, put all new floors and hardware in, custom interiors, upgraded the lights to LED in rear and euro clears in front and machined custom rims. They are definitely banking a good profit though. And of course burt got one for free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 People with no skills and time to do it but have money will pay just about anything for things they want and that are in limited supply. I agree on the price. I'd pay perhaps the equiv. of a ZO6 for it, but no more. Just me perhaps. I'm not quite grasping where this crazy price comes from.

Vander Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 I'm surprised this hasn't been posted earlier! Or am I mistaking this with the BAN-ONE, etc? What the hell could you fit a 800ci in? 572's are hard to fit in some vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clifford Automotive Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 Looking at the pictures. That paint doesnt look to hot. Every reflection of the light is dual and not crisp.
