Default Newbie here with 79 t/a

Been lurking for a while, but this is my official intro I guess.

I have had Supras ever since I was 20, but I was interested in a change of pace and have always wanted to toy with one of these. Its got a tired 400 in it with a 200R4. I am gonna put an LS 6L in it and maybe a T56 later on. We'll see.
So without further adieu, my new 1979 Trans Am.





















First big 'mod' was swapping out door panels. Here's what was there, and the new ones below

Old door panels







New door panels, still need to finish the pass. side
