My favorite muscle car of the 70’s, the 73 Trans AM SD455! Brewster green is still my favorite color ie. MCQ. Although white, not being my favorite color, just fits…So, another movie reference, the Trans AM in the movie Thunderbolt And Lightfoot.
@@jamesthompson8008 Cool fact I didn’t know! Another one of my favorite movies, At Close Range with Christoper and Sean Penn used a real Sherwood green 70 Chevelle LS-6 that was apparently owned by the producer of that movie. Off topic I know but couldn’t resist…
Same car in “Light foot and Thunderbolt” 1974 Clint Eastwood, George Kennedy, Jeff Bridges! 3 legends with a legendary car in action! Clint did by that car after the movie was made!!!❤
Bernie loved his firebirds , he worked nights at the KCBMC AT 4900 SPEAKER ROAD I remember him at lunch talking about going to gulf coarse s after work , and wading into the little ponds feeling for gulf balls with his toes , cleaning them up to resale them. I ask him once about Snapping turtles, He said he never worried about them. I pray he will be on the right side of the GULF , from one Pontiac fan to another ,
Yup. I'd go a step further out too. I suggest my favorite is the 1970-72 that would have been far more often found with a stripe from front to tail and no bird on the hood. I've never been a fan of the hood bird. I always preferred the cars that deleted it or the guys that painted 'em and chose not to include it. Today though, if the car originally came with the screaming chicken, you really should put it back on there after fresh paint. It''s too tied to the over all value and appeal of the car to most people. I grudgingly accept that I'm in the minority on this one all these years later.
@@Dogboy1960 I did not have on on my 74, I thought it looked better without it. I had the red and always thought it would look cool with a white stripe like the 70-72 blue cars had.
I'm speechless, mouth open and a bit jealous at the same time! What an incredible collection this man had, a real Pontiac lover. Glad you purchased the car for your collection. Hope to see it once, the day I'm in the states again. Cheers from France y'all 👍
My #1 Favorite Muscle Car. Looked at a 73 Buccaneer red with the big bird, blk int, 455 4 spd 40 years ago for $2,000. Didn't buy it and have been kicking myself ever since. Hands down the best sounding, looking, performing muscle car ever made in my eyes.
I have a similar experience. In 1990, I looked at a 73 Trans Am 455 4 speed buccaneer red with black interior. He wanted 4500$. I passed...what a mistake.
Dead wrong!!! It does matter!! He enjoyed all his life every single day! when he woke up and go to be with all these treasures!!! You can’t buy that feeling with a world full of money! Money is not everything always!
OMG!!! @ 3 mins. into your video, and seeing his collection, makes me wonder what his profession was. the price of the building alone, never mind the collection. Wow. And that car. A stick shift, 73 SD. Unreal. And it sounds so good. Nice find. :)
Eh, I don't know. These cars are on a farm. The buildings metal could have been built originally for the farm itself rather than the cars now in them. I don't think the owner needed to be especially well off. The real question? How many years did it take to accumulate 'em all. The over all collectable nature of them today isn't a good representation of just how inexpensively most were very likely originally purchased for. This was clearly a guy with a passion for his Pontiacs. Mostly about Trans Ams but enough randomness in the GTOs and 1st gen firebirds too to call it a Pontiac thing as much as a Trans Am thing. In the 1970s, 80s and even to the early 1990s these cars could be acquired for what amounts to small change today by a guy who meets the definition of a "hoarder". This looks a lot like an estate sale after his death by the daughter. She's lucky that dad's choices are worth a few extra bucks today. I bet there was long period of time when his family thought he was crazy to a fault over so many cars.
@@Dogboy1960 Yeah, you could be right. I know I bought my Ponchos used, for pennies on the dollar back then. Who'ld've thunk these things would be worth what they're pullin in today. But anyone saving them, might think hard about how long they wanna hold onto them. Us older grey haired/balding folk, (that "really" appreciate them, and know their history), are dying off by the hoards. The kids now-a-days, are only interested in those stupid phones and videos to keep them entertained. It's a sad fact, but go to any drags now-a-days, (and not a special event day,) and the place is barely 1/2 full. I still have a 73 T/A in storage (for over 30 yrs), and hoping to do something with it, B4 I croak. :(
@@joequillun7790 Hid sight it's 20/20 for sure. When they panned across all those cars one in particular caught my eye. A 1970 GTO. I Bought one my senior year in High School in 1978. Well used by the time I got it. Paid $1,000 even for it. Build the 400 but never did manage to do anything about the badly faded paint. I sold the car in 1983. Got a little more than I'd paid for it. I managed to squeeze $1,500 out of the guy who bought but had to really pitch HARD the idea of how fast it was and that despite the poor condition of the paint it was still very "straight" and rust free. Like a lot of older guys who had cars they wish they never sold I've thought about that car and considered looking for a good example more than once.
My God can you imagine walking into something like this, not only the cars but the parts also. It makes me happy to see something like this, would have loved to talked to that gentleman. I have a 1968 Firebird 400 which I bought in 1973 for 51 years now, glad to see others have such an appreciation for the Pontiac model line.
Very nice find. Will look nice in your collection. Glad this 73 4spd SD is going to a good home. Thanks for taking us along to see the other jewels inside the building. That 79 400 4 spd 10th Anniversary was sweet also. Plus that 70 GTO Judge 💪🏻 Nice video! 👍
I was fortunate to own the same car except is was the basic 455. Then 5 years later, bought a '74 Formula FB w/SD-455. Had two sheets for window stickers. A few yrs after that found and restored a '74 Grand Am loaded two sheet window sticker. It had the Muncie 4-spd. All rare cars with documentation.
I had a 71 Grandville with a 455 HO in it. I didnt know it until I took it to Western Auto to get a water pump. The parts counter guy came out to look some numbers on it and noticed it. The lady I bought the car from bought it new off the lot in 71, the 455 the car came with "blew" she said at 10K miles. She said the dealer had a low mileage "totaled out sports car" in the motor pool (her terminology) and they swapped that motor into the Grandville under warranty as opposed to rebuilding hers. Im assuming that car was a Trans Am. The guy at Western Auto wanted to write me a check on the spot for the car, but It was the only car I had. This was in 1992, Ft. Worth, Texas.
Nice find, those 455sd motors are 💪and with a rare manual👍. I have numbers matching all original 74,000 mile 70 ta with a 400 4 speed 3:73 gears, white with blue stripe I drove back from arizona 16 yrs ago. Lol I paid $11,500 for it, at the time thought I overpaid. Made it up to WI then had to have it towed home, fuel pump went bad 8 miles from my driveway. Today this ta still has the original paint motor and interior. I replaced exhaust and added flowmaster mufflers thats it. Its still plenty fast for this 50 year old man.
Amazing collection, I'm also pretty regularly surprised when these collections pop up and most of the family never seems to be interested in keeping hardly any of them nuts. Had my pop bought that jewel new I'd never part with it js
What an amazing collection. While the SD is my favorite, it is too valuable to drive the way It should be driven. I'd settle for any of them with a 400 pontiac motor and a 4 speed.
This probably the best video i have ever watched about my favorite car. I bought a 1979 gold WS6 TA new in 79, and to me. It was love at first site. I have had many TA's over the years, and currently own a 2000 WS6 TA. But this find with all those gorgeous pontiacs is like heaven on earth to me. My wife and i love pontiacs. That 1973 SD 455 is my biggest dream car. I never cared what was quicker or faster, the Trans Am was it for me. I cannot say enough about how impressed i am with your work and how far you go to get the job done 😊😊😊. I love all Trans Am's, but the 1970 - 1974 really hit home for me. At least now i know who to contact when i want to get a Great resto, hopefully you all will hsve something from the 2nd Gen. For me to purchase or restore for us. Thank you again for this Great channel and your love if cars. 😊😊😊😊
Saw a similar 73 SD for sale in the Auto Trader magazine in 1989. In Ottawa, Ontario. It was up on blocks and covered. Asking price was $12,000 Canadian then.
Congratulations to Dave on getting the SD. This is the story from Dave’s perspective, it is not however the complete story. Diana actually sold the car, twice. She agreed to sell the car to another party who had the cash in hand waiting only for her to obtain a clear title. Diana then backed out after telling the other party they had just bought themselves a Super Duty. Hopefully Diana removed Bernie’s ashes from the trunk before Dave loaded it on the trailer.
It weird to see why people collect things like cars over their lifetime. All these cars require massive maintenance and need to be driven. Even with low mileage every detail needs to be checked and serviced. For any buyer it is very difficult to explain these lucky owners why the value is below their expectations. But to walk through such a barn must be pretty exciting. 😊😊😊
There is good news though. If you like the '79 Trans Am best of the bunch. You're really in a good place. This is the most affordable of the bunch from the 2nd generation today. I see good examples of the '79 TA for sale pretty often and at relatively cheap prices too. If you really want one now may be the time to do it. All 2nd gen Trans Ams have risen in price pretty significantly over the last few years yet the '79s have lagged behind......not hard to imagine the gap may begin to close up some in the future as people begin to figure that out that a Trans Am from a year they might have preferred has risen out of the reach of their budget.
I daily drove a ‘79 400 4 speed TA, bought it in ‘83 with 35000 miles on it. That thing moved with emissions and cat removed, shaker opened and carb massaged. NHRA rated them at 260 to 280 net HP. Not to be confused with the Olds 403, which you’ll see more of today with the auto trans.
I worked in rural hospice care for about 10 years, I saw this a few times. Guys had collected cars their whole life with plans to restore this or that. What they mostly collected was dust. When they died the kids would just auction off the whole thing.
Amazing video, you work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K into trading from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires
Hello, I am very interested. As you know, there are tons of investments out there and without solid knowledge, I can't decide what is best. Can you explain further how you invest and earn?
Same, I operate a wide- range of Investments with help from My Financial Adviser. My advice is to get a professional who will help you, plan and enhance your management skills. For the record, working with Ann Marie strunk, has been an amazing experience.
I'm favoured, $90K every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America,, all thanks to Ms Ann Marie strunk😊
A guy in town has a brown one trimmed in gold,his has a 455 with a 3 speed manual floor shift,and claims he bought it new like that,but it's not a 73, it looks like an early 80's model
Not hating on the owner but this is sort of cautionary tale stuff. Far too many of us accumulate projects that will take more years and resources than we have left. Sort of a reminder for me to get out in my garage and get that car done.
Nice find -- congrats on landing that one! Imagine being the high school kid that ordered the car, based on Dad promising you that you'll get any car you want upon graduation -- only to have Dad shoot it down seeing what you had picked out. I'd have been so p*ssed.
I know of a gentleman that owns a huge farm....and he has 3 heated buildings full of older cars...The reason I know I repaired a roof on one of his buildings...Inside one of the buildings I counted 30 cars...and 8 were early Trans And....3 superbirds...2 Dodge Daytonas...4 all steel 40 or 41 Willys...And I know the other buildings are full of cars...I also seen numerous auto parts and even several real early Harleys....The owner is in his late 80's...And from what I can gather he's still active...at least that's what his son says.....Happy Days...
Yet all over the news ya hear farmers are struggling. Hmmm Lotta cars, something doesn't add up. Around here at $115.00 per parking spot for heated indoor storage, not only does he have alot, he's losing alot of money he could be making also. That's not a sign of a financially struggling farm, like the media would have us believe.
To me the best years for the T/A were 70-73, after that the nose configuration just doesn’t work for me. I had a brand new 1971 455 HO T/A, unfortunately it was one of the worst cars I ever owned. The HO engine in my opinion was not a particularly good engine. They replaced mine 3 times, before I gave up, and ordered a new 1972 W-30 Olds 442, which I still have to this day. The TA rode and handled great, and the power was very good as well, but the engine just would not stay together. I think the 73 455 SD with a 4 speed, in the green color, with a buff interior, in my opinion is the pinnacle of the TransAm. Just my personal preference.
@mattnessB72 you are correct!!! Low out 400 rated 330 hp which if you have ever driven one you would know that pontiac advertisement underrated hp.& torque specs...
Maybe do some more research on the SD motor. Had lots of special parts. Completely different block. Only made 290 yes but was setup to make vig power with minor changes. Seriously, check it out.
What i don't get is why people collect all these cars for other people to exploit.....They could have had just a few mint ones to enjoy every day and plenty of money to enjoy life....
4:49 Watching your videos feels like uncovering hidden treasures. Awesome!
Very nice find,I hope too own one someday!❤😊.
Pontiac muscle, can't be beat!!!
This barn find story was mind-blowing! Keep sharing these treasures. 10:48
My favorite muscle car of the 70’s, the 73 Trans AM SD455! Brewster green is still my favorite color ie. MCQ. Although white, not being my favorite color, just fits…So, another movie reference, the Trans AM in the movie Thunderbolt And Lightfoot.
@craigz9590 And that T/A in the movie was actually Clint Eastwood's personal car.

I remember growing up through the 80s and a neighbor having one of these. The guy loved that car. As long as he was alive, it was his daily.
I have loved Trans Ams since I was a kid. There were some beautiful cars in this clip. Congratulations on your purchase !
Same car in “Light foot and Thunderbolt”
1974 Clint Eastwood, George Kennedy, Jeff Bridges! 3 legends with a legendary car in action! Clint did by that car after the movie was made!!!❤
Kept inside nice and dry, perfect!👍😁
He was very good at taking things apart.
Wow. I’m in HEAVEN !! Had a 77 f bird & 78 T/a.
one of the best looking American cars ever made
Bernie loved his firebirds , he worked nights at the KCBMC AT 4900 SPEAKER ROAD I remember him at lunch talking about going to gulf coarse s after work , and wading into the little ponds feeling for gulf balls with his toes , cleaning them up to resale them.

At 4:13 in video, that was a 4 speed 1979 Anniversary edition. A true Pontiac, 400. Wow.
thanks for showing the video ,& telling the story history of previous own .
Oh God!! Am I in heaven? This is the place I want to be and die!! The almighty Pontiac❤❤❤❤❤
Super Duty = eas a special block with distributor upgrade and other special bits - my favorite 455 SD .
That is my number 1 wish car. I bought a 74 Sd-455 new but always like the 70-73 styling better.

Amazing collection, I'm also pretty regularly surprised when these collections pop up and most of the family never seems to be interested in keeping hardly any of them nuts. Had my pop bought that jewel new I'd never part with it js
Awesome heartfelt story :(. Should have also filmed from the driver's POV to get a read on those miles. Can't wait for the follow-up restoration video
I could be best friends forever with the person that owns this collection
The guy that did the motor rebuild built the 462 stroker for my ‘67. He knows how to make things go fast.
My favorite is the 1980 silver turbo anniversary car.The one that came with the turbo wheels.
What an amazing collection. While the SD is my favorite, it is too valuable to drive the way It should be driven. I'd settle for any of them with a 400 pontiac motor and a 4 speed.
Seen lots of '75s, my first car was a 75 formula when i was 16. Actually there were a lot of firsts that happened for me in that car. 😎
Man, what a beautiful collection 😍
Great video, great story. I just truly hope that the car's worth a 100,000 plus ..Hopefully that's what restore muscle car paid them for it...
This probably the best video i have ever watched about my favorite car. I bought a 1979 gold WS6 TA new in 79, and to me. It was love at first site.

From one good home to another. Lucky car
PMD all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Notice how in all the Ford, Chevy, and Mopar rivalries and debate, no one hates on Pontiac.
Awesome video Dave
Geezus! I want a 79 so bad.. I should got it back in my 20's but life. That place is heaven on earth.
There is good news though. If you like the '79 Trans Am best of the bunch. You're really in a good place. This is the most affordable of the bunch from the 2nd generation today.

I've got a w72 79 that I will probably be getting rid of within a year. Let me know if you want to inquire.

Skol Brother, Poncho Power! 🏁
Super Duty vid starts at 6:00
Burt Reynolds said in smokey and the bandit I'm the only man who can drink up a trans am ...... honey hush ❤️
I worked in rural hospice care for about 10 years, I saw this a few times. Guys had collected cars their whole life with plans to restore this or that. What they mostly collected was dust. When they died the kids would just auction off the whole thing.
Should be a lesson to us to stop storing up stuff for "someday". Do it while you can. Though it did provide funds for the family.
Bet that wasn't cheap. Nice find !!
Amazing video, you work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K into trading from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires

The 2 front fender skirts are missing on the left n right fenders ......but a nice 455 Super duty trans am
Nice to obtain but totally understandable ,or any of those for sale. Thanks.
I had a seventy five with a four hundred four speed when I was seventeen. I would love to have one like this.
Quick question, around 10:52, I see what I think is a PCV hose to the valley pan.
Shouldn't SDs have that in the drivers side valve cover?
Thanks
I saw a video somewhere on youtube of this car and the old man that owned it ,he was talking about the 5 speed he put in it
I'd be in heaven!
i feel light headed grandma
WOW
Wow talk about cool, it doesn't get any better than that !
So odd why how people just take random parts off cars for no reason and leave them like that. So much that doesnt make sense on these cars.
A guy in town has a brown one trimmed in gold,his has a 455 with a 3 speed manual floor shift,and claims he bought it new like that,but it's not a 73, it looks like an early 80's model
Last year for a 455 was 76 so he didn't buy it new like that
thank you
I want the brown one over you left shoulder
Great find, what an amazing collection! Question, are those the original wheels on the SD? They look a little wider than what I remember.
Almost bought a TA SD 455 for $2500. I had just sold a nice camaro and wifey said no
Are you still with wifey
They were great cars, not like the crap they built 2day. Nick Melbourne Australia
I had a 1976 in south Georgia
Sold it running with no rust. 600 hundred dollars. Lol
Did they mention that 74 SD TA has the wrong rear tail light panel?
It looked like quite a few of the Shaker hoods were missing off some of them cards what's up with that
I had one of those n red. A UPS truck totaled it.
Not hating on the owner but this is sort of cautionary tale stuff. Far too many of us accumulate projects that will take more years and resources than we have left. Sort of a reminder for me to get out in my garage and get that car done.
RIP Bernie.
That original 4-speed, is it an M-22 Rockcrusher?
Mighty bitchin buy you've made, and made some new friends as well.😁
Can I make my 75 Granville convertible sound like That please God pretty please. NICE
Nice find -- congrats on landing that one! Imagine being the high school kid that ordered the car, based on Dad promising you that you'll get any car you want upon graduation -- only to have Dad shoot it down seeing what you had picked out. I'd have been so p*ssed.

I know of a gentleman that owns a huge farm....and he has 3 heated buildings full of older cars...The reason I know I repaired a roof on one of his buildings...Inside one of the buildings I counted 30 cars...and 8 were early Trans And....3 superbirds...2 Dodge Daytonas...4 all steel 40 or 41 Willys...And I know the other buildings are full of cars...I also seen numerous auto parts and even several real early Harleys....The owner is in his late 80's...And from what I can gather he's still active...at least that's what his son says.....Happy Days...
Yet all over the news ya hear farmers are struggling. Hmmm Lotta cars, something doesn't add up. Around here at $115.00 per parking spot for heated indoor storage, not only does he have alot, he's losing alot of money he could be making also. That's not a sign of a financially struggling farm, like the media would have us believe.
Just a hint to help grow your channel. Invest in a couple of ''Rode'' mics for 200 bucks or so.
If the owner charged admission say a $100/hr. I would gladly pay the price to walk around in the buildings for an or two.
Almost too good to be true!
Sweeeeeeet
To me the best years for the T/A were 70-73, after that the nose configuration just doesn’t work for me. I had a brand new 1971 455 HO T/A, unfortunately it was one of the worst cars I ever owned. The HO engine in my opinion was not a particularly good engine. They replaced mine 3 times, before I gave up, and ordered a new 1972 W-30 Olds 442, which I still have to this day. The TA rode and handled great, and the power was very good as well, but the engine just would not stay together. I think the 73 455 SD with a 4 speed, in the green color, with a buff interior, in my opinion is the pinnacle of the TransAm. Just my personal preference.
MACHO T/A
You must have been a big fan of the 180 horsepower 70s Pontiacs..
Completely inaccurate.
@mattnessB72 you are correct!!! Low out 400 rated 330 hp which if you have ever driven one you would know that pontiac advertisement underrated hp.& torque specs...
TAKE EM APART AND LEAVE EM SIT
Don't have the SD chrome valve covers?
I don’t think I saw a 68. The first car I ever owned in 1979
Again…with the “Barn Find”. It’s not a Barn if it costs over $100K …lol. Great car though!
Did you buy this from people in Tonganoxie Kansas
Where is this place?
Why is the paint so beat compared to the rest??
only original once Please just cleanup & keep the history
Big deal it was a smog motor just like the 455.290 hp for SD and 250 hp for regular 455.
Maybe do some more research on the SD motor. Had lots of special parts. Completely different block. Only made 290 yes but was setup to make vig power with minor changes. Seriously, check it out.
What i don't get is why people collect all these cars for other people to exploit.....They could have had just a few mint ones to enjoy every day and plenty of money to enjoy life....
