GNREGISTRY ID: TTA01102E (TTA # 396) - Jim Chaudrue

E-MAIL: phillyturbosix@comcast.net

CLASS:  FSS - Factory Stock Show

PART A - OWNERSHIP:  This is a 20th Anniversary Turbo Trans Am that has had 5 owners including me. The current miles are 28,656. It is car # 396 of the 1324 built with T tops and leather as the only options.

Original dealer: Pitts Pontiac Rochester, NY
Amy Morgan was the first owner living in Rochester, NY. The car was then sold to Ralph Mangino JR. Owner of Mangino Pontiac Buick in Ballston Spa, NY. He kept it in the showroom and drove it on the weekends from time to time for a few years then it was sold to John Walker of Owings, MD. He then sold the car to Faust a guy in NE Philly via eBay. Faust then sold the car in just a few months to me in February of 2005. It was on eBay and the reserve was not met so we worked a deal out after the auction and I purchased the car from him
.

PART B -MOTOR:  Engine is 100% original and stock. I have the original spark plug wires that were custom for this car. The first owner took them off and put a set of Denso wires on the car to protect the original ones. The first owner also passed down the original AC Delco spark plugs from the factory. I still have them as well.

PART C - TRANNY:  Transmission is original stock other then some fluid changes along with the rear.

PART D - SUSPENSION: Everything is original stock. Factory stickers still on the rims, shocks, and springs. Everything is still original. The car got new tires back in 2000 as the originals were dry rotting. That owner installed a set of BFG G-Force KDW and they are still on the car.

PART E - BODY & PAINT:  Original all stock. Nothing has been touched on the car as far as paint and interior goes. The radio still has the original protective coating over the display.

PART F - PERFORMANCE:  Never been to the track.

PART G - OTHER:  All Original Stock.

Hello,

     I just sent in the form online for the black diamond award for my 1989 Turbo Trans AM # TTA01102D Rather then attaching pictures I'd like to give you a link to my web site with tons of pictures of my car. They are all recent. I have so many pictures I like of the car and I could never pick 9. This way you can browse these pictures at your own convenience. Thank you!
