1982 Pontiac Trans Am Advertisement - Modified

Post by James_kr » Sat Feb 17, 2007 6:50 am

Hi All,

I made some videos with my friend on these forums (ausknight2k) a month or two ago when he came over to my place in the evening. I changed some video from the original 82 ad to clips of his car.

I will tell you (and I am sure he will too) that the car is still being restored and has been butchered by the previous owner. The work he is putting into the car is amazing and it is progressing.

Anyway, here is the video I made:

Pretty cool. I just love the cheesy 80's elevator music. :lol:

I think its funny when the voice says "The elegant interior" and you see the rip in the side of the seat. They will be recovered into tan eventually.

AusKnight2k will probably tell you something about it.

I love the end title "by Pontiac and no-one else", What is the Chevrolet Camaro then, its the same as a Firebird!! LOL

Have you got the original copy, I would love to see that.

Thanks James_kr! Brilliant work with the video!

Since that video was made, I've now put on the correct wheels, it's now back to it's original look ... :dance: Now it just needs a few coats of black, which it orignally was ... :roll: :cry:

Its hard to say just how good it looks now compared to what it was a couple of months ago! The new rims and hubcaps make so much difference. I can't wait till it starts being stripped back and everything can be fixed.

P.S Reply to my e-mail!!
