Description

This 1972 Pontiac Trans Am survivor is very rare due to the factory shut-down in April of 1972. Manufacture date is January of 1972 out of the Norwood, Ohio, plant and my uncle purchased the vehicle in February off the showroom floor at Quality Pontiac in Albuquerque, NM. He is unable to drive it anymore and it needs to be with someone who appreciates this classic muscle car (which has lived its whole life in New Mexico). We have the original title issued April 3, 1972. Pontiac produced 1286 Trans Ams in 1972 and only 458 with the Muncie 4 speed manual transmission. See the photo of factory specs. for more information.
Original parts and matching numbers are here. Starts easily, runs strong and solid. The complete unrestored condition of a car this age is hard to find. Most Trans Ams of this era have been taken apart more than once. Buyer should choose their own technicians and craftsmen for any restoration.
Uncle changed the carburetor within the first few years to a Holley but saved the original in a box and later replaced with a newer Holley. The purchase includes all three carbs: original Rochester, older Holley in a box and installed Holley. Some suspension parts were changed out in the 90’s but all original parts were kept. Front grill guard was repainted in the 70’s due to paint chips from road debris. Stored in a climate controlled shop since 1977. Driver’s seat has sun damage where it is near the window (adhesive residue from old duck tape repair makes it worse). Some cracks in the dash are also from sun. There has been touch-up work done around the back window where a metal sun shade was once attached. Some paint repair also around the license plate where gas nozzles chipped. We also have the original window cranks but one is damaged. There is a dimple on the passenger side rear fender and a small paint chip on the driver's side rear fender. I have included pictures to show these imperfections. Also exhaust manifolds were replaced recently due to theft of originals.
