The preponderance of evidence points to Trans Am here. Hood graphics and scoops were so 1970s
supcoach ◊ 2018-12-30 01:46	Or someone made a Trans Am out of a wrecked Firebird. Not beyond the realm of possibility. Burt Reynolds loved his TA in Smokey and the Bandit. I prefer the Knight Rider stealthy KITT look.
