That was actually perfect that your wife came with you on this one. She was your Sally Fields riding in The Bandit II 😀

[@Slejj_Hamma]

I could be east bound & down with this all day long... 1991 v6 I had also had weak paint... in general, very reliable with good power... price is unbelievably low!!

[@mgtowoutlaw6950]

negative these cars arent worth 5 figures lol

[@Carl_Jr]

I had a 92 Camaro RS with that same engine and the same issues with heat and idle. This could also explain why your air conditioning setting is still blowing hot air, but on mine the heater control valve, which is up by the passenger side in front of the engine, was going bad. It's that little black thing right behind the AC compressor. I know technically you guys don't fix stuff but maybe let the new owner know, that could be the issue.

[@BuzzLOLOL]

I still have my '87 GTA version: i.pinimg.com/originals/0a/6e/92/0a6e925d76ea7b8a50b40ef04eb7a4b5.jpg

[@HgRoller]

Cleaning the MAF might fix your idling issue. Could be low compression in one cylinder, idle speed sensor might need to be adjusted, or could need new pistons and rings which would suck.

[@matthewnelson4298]

It's throttle body injection not Tune port injection

​@@rico1k13you can buy vacuum line by the foot at a parts store for pretty cheap. Just bring one of each size in (using a different car) and estimate the footage of each. Cut to length.

Sorry to burst ppl's bubble but that IS NOT a OEM 1991 Trans am ... I owned a 1991 Trans am GTA ... It has a different Rear Spoiler/ Tail lights. Base model Firebird that Stock Flat rear deck lid spoiler/Base model rear taillight - the 91-92 Formula had the Trans am/GTA rear spoiler/ Base model taillights/and the hood scoop was built into the hood curving on the left side - Base model Trans am had the same hood scoop .. GTA model had a Flat hood with built in Louvers .. The Trans am GTA models came with Leather Seats and a Tuned Port motor ... Cloth seats were Base Firebird/Formula .... The Hood Scoop on the vehicle is a Cheap Ebay Plastic one held on with 2 sided tape painted Black .... Sorry not Worth 10k. Wrong tires as they should be 245/50/16 on the Replica GTA wheels which were Deep dish on OEM models .. Windshield needs replaced .. I'm sure that vehicle has been repainted too at some point in its life. $2500 - $5000 car honestly with the miles if they are original

[@edgardaniels1402]

There’s a company that sells everything from the dash, steering wheel or any TV mod done to the T.A. all built to original KITT specs. You can go as deep as you want into that rabbit hole and it would be way better than a cheesy bandit tribute. (Even if it is a numbered car) they didn’t even put the polish swirls into the instrument bezel or the console.

[@codyralston1372]

Found one in Pennsylvania for $1,700 but needs “exhaust, breaks other TLC” and is unable to be driven home but it runs…. Which makes me think the breaks might be completely out on it. Makes me wonder if more than just the breaks need replaced. Especially for that price… the pictures look decent… but that’s because they’re pictures, as anyone with 2 brain cells to rub together knows, pictures only show what the seller WANTS to show.

[@edgardaniels1402]

1991’s lazy tribute to the famous 77, just wasn’t enough time gone by from that 3rd movie that we don’t like to admit exists. The body style was too close. Fun fact: Smokey and the Bandit 3 was originally titled “Smokey IS the Bandit and starred Jackie Gleason aka “Sheriff Buford T Justice” as the smokey and also as the bandit in some weird head trip he was on about never catching the bandit. Word has it that the movie tested so poorly that they called Jerry Reed in and re shot all of the bandit scenes and edited them into the movie. It is also rumored that the Gleason family bought every copy of the movie in existence and either destroyed them or vowed that the public would never see it. How I wish I could watch the original cut!! All of that being said, I just can’t “BOO” a damn bandit tribute!! Thwarted again Nick!! 😒

[@Simon-hf3lw]

Another beautiful automobile I just can't get enough love it. 👍

The bandit editions we're a 1977 a 1980 and either a 83 or 84 they didn't make a bandit edition on this year but it still looks nice

[@ripvanrevs]

I believe the original was a 76 with a 77 front clip. I have an 80 bandit with a 454 in it. It originally was a 301 turbo distinguished by the offset shaker and the solid "turbo" wheels. Thankfully mine got a new hood when they changed engines but kept the turbo wheels that I like because they are different than the honeycomb.

[@mikemalone4287]

@@ripvanrevs my apologies I looked it up according to Pontiac the car was a 1976 because the 77 wasn't out yet however Pontiac supplied the movie with front end clips for 77s that makes sense because in the movie as they are about to go into town you see the car on the side of the road and in fact the car has 76 wheels .you are right my friend
