Oh God I missed Rabbit here on the channel. He’s amongst the best story teller. He should come more often !

[@tannerhoward9538]

He has his own KZbin channel now if you didn’t know! Rabbits Used Cars is awesome!

Man I miss that one , But we always have a new fun ride coming through the RUC. Hope everyone is having a kick ass Monday - Rabbit 😎

[@deeredude]

Hope your Monday is going good too brother. 🤜🤛

[@Captain-Awesome]

Thank you Rabbit!! Great Story as usual. My day is going pretty good, just contracted to build a 2.5 million dollar home 👍🏻. I am kicking around building a spec with a full basement as the garage. I would pull in to the one car garage and a lift would drop me down to the garage basement. I am in the Southlake/Westlake part of Texas just outside of Dallas. The only part I don’t have figured out is a lift that would work and have a battery back up. Thoughts? It’s on a smaller lot and I am trying to maximize the A/C area and have something Real Cool.

[@unstablebobgable]

Good evening brother. Great car, great story!

[@dreamworldtony]

Hey Rabbit - what's a rotisserie restore?

[@kavinskysmith4094]

@@dreamworldtony its when the car is rigged up on a Rotisserie like they would do a chicken, like the body, which is an unibody construction is put onto a rotating piece of metal so they can literally roll the car around, stationary, 360 degree's clockwise like a chicken to get at it as they build it up and fix it, that way your not going up and down on a lift all the time or standing over it and scratching the paint while you put things together on it plus when your spraying it and rust proofing it, you just turn the car over and dont have to touch anything plus being an unibody construction means its built like the dukes of hazzard charger, its all sheet metal on sheet metal, hence why those folded in as bad as they did, so that allows you to get at the bodywork to wield and spot wield it in abit better. and also hence why things like the wonderbar exist to better brace the body as the body is the structure, which they kinda inadvertently did with the camera rig on the knight rider cars granted their gets a point where you take it off and put it on the ground and do the lift and final fitment type thing, but its a key thing they do to rebuild the structure of a car like that.

[@codyhennings]

6 minutes in before double digits, it’s about a Trans Am, and it’s Rob Pitts. Going to be a good day.

[@alfredocontreras2575]

Seriously. We should start every week with a Rabbit story!!

Yeah, If ya wanna be lied to every week. 😆😂🤣

Any Rabbit story gets played all the way through. Everytime!

I live in Vegas and I know the guy that bought that car. My first car (30 yrs ago) was a 79 TA. I love this one.

Yessss!!! A rabbit story?!?! It's gonna be a good week!

Love rabbits stories almost as much as eds!!!Ed's 1 of the best people on these platforms who actually cares and takes the time out of his sch to answer random texts to his number about old cars!!Cara!!! Absolutely the top guy around!!!! Love ya ed!!!Ed!!!! Kevin

[@SA-zoom1]

The 79 was never a bandit movie car. The one from Bandit 2 was the 1980 4.9 turbo with the side hood bulge (not the shaker) gold turbofin rims and decals. The 79 was the Rocky 2 car, with the 6.6 engine, although Rocky's was a hardtop rather than a T Top. Seems like any black Trans Am is called a Bandit now. That said that is an absolutely gorgeous car. Just stunning.

[@d00z3r]

nobody said it was a movie car, the OO was born in 79 so he wanted a 79 not a 77, in the video Rabbit even says that the new owner literally changed the nose and tail to a 77 to be an exact replica..... and if your looking for a "Hero" car, one doesnt exist....... all 3 cars from GM/Pontiac were destroyed, due to accidents and the such, not to keep it out of collectors hands..... lol

[@SA-zoom1]

@@d00z3r no. Not at all. Rabbit said "the 79 was in Bandit 2" which it 100% was not. Nothing to do with the actual movie cars. The 79 is a very different car to the 1980 that was in Bandit 2.

[@pgtmr2713]

Just looking at the thumbnail, I said okay that is not a bandit. So I stared at it for a minute. Visually nothing is right. Even the too perfect black paint.

[@SA-zoom1]

@@pgtmr2713 its a nice car, but the 77/78 cars built by year one are so much better in every possible way.

[@aphromew4502]

Rabbit is my favorite storyteller. The only AMA subscriber Q&A presenter of whom I watched the entire video, beginning to end.

[@haydenp2755]

Rabbit is by far the best storyteller on this channel.

[@Veldkamp88]

Back in 07, during my senior year of high school, my 96 TA blew its engine. That following weekend, I spotted an 81 TA for sale. I gave the guy a call, and the end result was 2gs, and my blown TA for his TA. The 81 had barely no rust, but it had the crap 301. Two days later, the guy called me and said that he wanted 5gs and my TA for the 81. I told him that we had already made the agreement for 2 and my car. I then asked why does he wanted more for the 81. The a-hole never told me he had it for sale on eBay and that the bid went up. I told him that I wasn't offering any more money for the 81 because I was only 18 years old, and my job then was pushing carts for a supermarket. He had the audacity to ask me to go ask my parents. My parents weren't going to help. If I wanted something, I had to work for it. Anyway, the guy screwed me over, and I called him a genuine scumbag. It still kicks me in the ass today what would have happened if I did get that 81. Hopefully, I will have one before I'm dead.

Rabbit must have been born from alien's!!! Because it's impossible to believe he could have possibly been born amongst us mortals with these stories. hahahahahaaa Home Run Baby!! Another hit out of the park!!

[@SeasonedPersona]

I love listening to Rob tell a story. He sounds like someone I'd sit down next to at my hometown bar

[@HellOnWheels8]

Yes sir another excellent one VINWIKI! This car will live on in one of the greatest places in the states! With an owner that will share it no doubt! -🤘

[@whipshinedetailing]

I could listen to Rabbit describe muscle cars all day long.

[@Captain-Awesome]

When you can like the video before it starts 👍🏻

[@cesariojpn]

Supposedly a Bandit Trans Am helped lead the Canadian Trucker Convoy partially/was a part of the convoy. Wonder if VinWiki can get the story of that guy!

[@obsidian00]

It would be sweet! People tend to forget that Bandit was a Trucker…that was HIS rig that Snowman was rolling!

Coffee ☕ and Rabbit. What a CLASSIC.

I feel like Rabbit is the walking definition of Las Vegas

Rabbit's Chanel is a story galore, love it so much. Family "might not be most appropriate sometimes", love his stories on road trips!

[@LEGIOXIIIG]

Best storyteller on this channel, hands down. God bless you Rabbit buddy. Happy New Year!

that has got to be the ONLY trans am i would ever want to own , that Bandit trans am . it's definitely a famous ride to car dudes like me 😎 I'd take that particular trans am over a new Lamborghini anyday

Rabbit must have some backyard bbq party stories that would be interesting.

Had a black and gold '79 400 4spd in '80. Lived a few minutes from Seaside Heights on the Jersey Shore. My neighbors used to joke with my parents that I needed to keep the T-tops on it because hot girls were always falling out the sky into my car. Fun times.

🤔Cash???Now the question is whether Rabbit has ever been pulled over and had his cash taken away bc of civil asset forfeiture?

I too would have put a '77 nose on that '79. You just can't beat it. It's one of those cases where the customizers want to make their car look older.

Pulling equipment for the oil field in the middle of nowhere with a 1 ton dually and 30ft dovetail on dirt roads and wooden backwoods built bridges, you just learn to take those spray painted weight capacities as a suggestion. I've seen the roof to a covered bridge in pieces at the bottom of the hill. They probably double its capacity cutting that off....
