Jim Wangers' 1969 Trans Am Ram Air III found in Alaska

Jim Wangers' 1969 Trans Am Ram Air III found in Alaska | Barn Find Hunter - Ep. 50

5 років тому

Tom Cotter travels to North Pole, Alaska, where he meets Terry and Preston, a father/son team of muscle-car enthusiasts and fellow barn-find hunters. Just like Tom, Terry and Preston spend their weekends driving around looking for hidden treasures in nearby towns. In their endeavors, they have uncovered many rare and desirable muscle cars, but none as important as a 1969 Trans Am Ram Air III that once belonged to Jim Wangers, the man behind the original Pontiac GTO. Follow along as Tom takes you on a tour of Terry and Preston’s barn-find collection.

I work in Las Vegas and we replaced a broken utility pole in one of the old neighborhoods. Weird place that looked like a bunch of giant tuff-sheds scattered about on an acre of concrete driveway. Turned out to be a car collection distributed among 20 or so buildings. Part of the Maloofs collection. What a shame that most of the cars will never see the light of day again. Including a 16 cylinder Cadillac owned by Tom Mix and a couple of Duesenbergs. One building was nothing but 1941 Cadillacs the next was all 1942 Cadillacs. You get the picture, but they won't ever be appreciated the way they should be. Smelled more like death than life in them buildings. Sad.

My idea of heaven! I'm from England but grew up reading up on and pawing over photos of American cars in books and magazines. You guys knew how to build cars, and it's easy for people to forget today the influence that American automotive styling had on the products of other countries. Despite Europe having smaller roads and damaged economies after WW1 and 2, I think that the working relationship and ownership that GM, Ford and later and briefly Chrysler had with European operations worked incredibly well. There may be exceptions, but I think overall the balance between the American HQs and the domestic management of Vauxhall, Opel, Ford of Britain and Germany and Rootes and Simca was spot on.

I restored a Pontiac GTO The Judge from 1968 20 years ago. The car was in a garage for over 20 years when we found him, had only a few miles, the car was the only GTO sold in Biel (Switzerland) to a General Motors dealer from Bellach. The car should be in a warehouse somewhere in Bettlach today. I worked on this GTO all summer, it was an honor for me.

But I understand that gm beat them down alot over the years for what they did and tried to accomplish. Do I like the later 04-06 gtos no do I think they are a real gto no. I also don't blame Jim for that since even after gm stuck the Chevy engines in them, Pontiac tried to remain there own by trying other things to stand out.

My Daddy raised me to be a "gearhead" just like he was. All of these cars bring back such memories! First car he bought me was a brown Ford Maverick when I first learned to drive in '78. Can't recall what year that car was. He also bought me a sweet Ford "Gran Torino" Same color as the Torino you featured on Preston's episode! The year of that one had to be close to the Torino you featured! Some years later, I fell in love with and purchased a 76 Firebird which had been transformed into a one of a kind Firebird. 400 automatic, Riverside Red was the color. It had Corvette rims. The "Firebird" on the hood was airbrushed! It featured all kinds of really special details! I loved that car!!! I zoomed around in it for a long time! Then, my dad stored it in his garage for me when I wanted to galavant across the world After he passed, nobody knew what ever became of that beauty!

I’ve lived here in AK for 40+ years and I’m still amazed at how many cars are stashed away here! I found my 70 GTO a couple of years ago with 21,000 miles on it that sat in a garage since the late 70’s!

@gen_xecutioner 5 років тому

Was it by any chance white, brown interior, auto?

@billness2635 5 років тому

No. It was originally Keylime green with Sandlewood interior. The first owner had it repainted in a 1978 Cadillac Coral colour in the late 70’s. otherwise, it’s original in every other way. Absolutely rust free! Pretty unusual for AK.

@mattkaustickomments 5 років тому

I would never have guessed you would find cars like this in AK! Would never guess the climate would be dry enough plus I figured muscle cars would have been to impractical to have up there.

@billness2635 5 років тому

Matt Kustom Kostumes You’re right on all counts! But it didn’t stop sales of them to drive the few roads we had back then. Almost all were put away for winters and we drove beater cars. Late April to mid October is the typical driving season. Our one dedicated drag strip opens in mid May and runs until Labor Day. We got a lot more roads paved starting in the 80’s. There are plenty of cars hidden in garages here that haven’t seen the light of day in years!

@mattkaustickomments 5 років тому

Bill Ness, cool! I also suppose the limited driving season kept the mileage low in them too.

Per Jim Wangers: 1969 Trans Am "We introduced the Trans Am and The Judge to the media simultaneously at Riverside. After the PR event, the cars went to local dealerships. The Judges disappeared, but we couldn't give the Trans Ams away. The Trans Am didn't really come into its own until the second-generation. And, despite only 697 being built, it's still no more valuable than the 1969 SS 396 Camaro I have on the other side of the room. This car is actually one of those event cars. I didn't buy it until the late '70s, by which time the engine had seized (though the block was repairable). The interior is untouched, but it's been repainted. It's got just 47,000 miles on it."

I'm 38 yrs old and I remember riding around with my dad when I was 6 in a 78 Ford station wagon wood grain and all 460bbf 2x4's to raise the suspension to clear the fat tires aluminum slots side pipe's, I don't remember much of anything at that age but, jumping up pointing and saying"cool car dad, look!"and guessing at the year and model of it, never told the story till now, it's just one of the very few memories I've ever had with him. I thought it would be appropriate to share with you all.

70 dislikes? Wtf? Why? These classics are gorgeous. Living pieces of nostalgia that bring happiness to lots of different kinds of ppl. Did ya hear that TA? How about that 69 cobra? I'd give almost anything to have my 76 firebird back.

I hear ya...wish I'd never let my 64 dart 3on the tree or even worse my 66 fastback ...that one I'll never forgive my self...( Went into the Navy ... Mom sold her house and no place to store it so I told her to sell it.. I got a whopping $1200 for it in 1981)
