Mine was a ‘73 “Trans Am Orange”. <-—LOL

3 speed with the 258 straight 6.

Toughest, most dependable car I’ve ever had.

For a 2WD, it excelled at ‘swamping’ down in the river bottom.

I had a lot of good times in that car.

My ex used it as a trade in on a VW Rabbit and it got hauled to a junk yard in WV.

About 2 weeks later, my mom spotted it on I81, being driven by some young kid.

The odometer had stopped at 238K, probably a year or so before being traded in.

For all I know, that thing is still out there, somewhere....at least I hope so.

Good ol’ funny lookin’ car.

:)

The rich kids in school made fun of me because of mine. They drove Trans-Ams, Firebirds, Mustangs and Chargers. When times were lean, I could drive all over town because of the fuel mileage while they were stuck in the drive way.
