Rare Pontiac Trans Am Macho

The history
In 1977 Kyle and Dennis started to buy 26 Pontiac Trans-am's from Pontiac dealers to have them tuned and cosmetically changed to a more ''Macho” style Trans Am, they tuned the cars to make them better driving and better looking. The two were called Dennis/ Kyle Mecham. Every Trans Am they build is different from each other beside a few special editions they build, they changed the following items on the car:
Hooker Headers
Koni Shocks
Reprogrammed Automatic Transmissions
Shorter / stiffer springs
Different timing settings distributor / ignition.
160 MPH speedometer
8000RPM Tachometer
Special Paint
No Mufflers only Catalytic Converters.
So like we said, Dennis and Kyle Mecham built 26 performance-tweaked Trans Ams that they dubbed as Macho T/ A The modified Trans Ams were a hit and the company, DKM designs performance, sold all they could build. Which eventually made 203 of them in total in 1978, and they marked the car's trough other Pontiac dealers. They claimed that everything in the 70's was Macho, and thus why they called the modified Trans-am Macho T/ A. And said, “It may not be the best name, but how can you forget it?”

These Macho's Trans Am never show up for sale because of its rareness and when they show up they are sold in a flash, the looking is awesome, driving it is awesome, and hearing its awesome! The interior of the car is just all perfect and all new or original and correct, the Red interior looks amazingly next to the platinum silver exterior paint, we just love this one! 400 engine and automatic transmission combination had originally 200 horsepower but with these tuning extra's they gained around 50 horsepower extra, this Trans Am is quick! This 77/ 78/ 79 Model trans-ams are the most popular Trans-am at the moment because of the Smokey and the Bandit Serie on TV.
