WELCOME TO THE GTA SOURCE PAGE!

1987 was a watershed year for Pontiac's Third Generation F-Body platform..... several new additions were made to the Firebird lineup from top to bottom, and the Trans Am model benefited from virtually all the additions.

Introduced as an higher-end performance/luxury option package for the 1987 Trans Am.... and to highlight the Pontiac F-Body introduction of the GM 5.7L (350 c.i.) Tuned-Port-Injection V8 engine.... the TRANS AM GTA debuted amid a flurry of activity in the Pontiac F-car lineup, and eventually moved into place as the flagship 1987-1992 Pontiac Firebird model.... for the auto enthusiast who wanted a bit more "panache" from his car, in both style and performance.

During its five years of production, the "Gran Turismo Americano" edition of the Trans Am evolved into the "ultimate" luxury performance Third-Generation Firebird.

Looks like Fall is upon us

Submitted by Frankie on Mon, 11/08/2010 - 23:47

Well, it looks like Fall is upon us finally... and I for one am glad the temperatures are cooling off.  This
past summer was a pretty brutal one at times here in Arkansas.  So what does the coming of the
cooler months have in store for your GTA?  Full usage, partial cruising, occasional sojourns.... or
full-boat storage?  I know mine will see the occasional clear-day drive; I've never been one to put
them up completely - I can't be that patient! 

Whatever your plans, be sure to share them with the rest of us here at The Source Page.  Use the Page itself, the Message Forums, or the new Facebook page.  No limitations....

Hey, this is an all-weather, all-season website -- all GTAs all the time:  24 - 7 - 365 !

Hope the new layout is still proving to be useful for both new arrivals and the "old faithful" user as
well.  That was one of the main goals in the successful redesign and from what I've heard so far,
there are definite improvements here for users.  Still deciding on what some of the upcoming
new additions will be, content-wise.  There will definitely be a new diecast section, the GTA
Spotlight feature will return in the New Year, and a new photo archive will come on board as well.

Do YOU have some ideas?  If so, please send them in for consideration.  You may have just the next
exciting addition to The Source Page.  The email link is at the LH side of the page....

Thanks for being here and for continuing to support The GTA Source Page.
