About this Current Vehicle:

Craig bought the GTA on Feb. 9, 1999 with 78,500 on it to replace his 1981 Z-28 Camaro. In June 1999 Craig came home one night with a loud knock in the engine. He had a remanufactured motor installed so it is no longer a numbers matching car. In early 2003 he sold the GTA to a friend for $3500.00 and a year and 12,000 miles later on Feb. 2, 2004 he bought it back for $3,000. He replaced most of the front suspension parts, shocks, struts and brakes with OEM type parts.

Thanks for ALL of the great comments. This site is about Craig's love for cars, especially Trans AM's, and preserving his memory. I wish he could see what great people use this site. Smile
