“Little Red TA”
Last Updated: May 19, 2008
About
Bought in 2000 off car lot in Tucker, GA. Local Atlanta car in good condition. Son drove to high school until graduating in 2003. Wrecked once. Put front clip back on car and another engine was installed. Very good, reliable car. Has been driven all over eastern 1/2 of USA. Will make the 2008 Bandit Run again!
Specs
WS6, 403 CI Olds, Auto, Fisher T-Tops, Mayan Red with Black interior. 2.73 rear gears runs outstanding on a cruise and gets near 20 mpg!
Factory Options
Most Favoritely a AM-FM-8-TRACK-CB RADIO. Crank Windows, tilt wheel, rear window defroster, T-Tops. Rare options and not a lot of them!
Mods
Original engine in garage. Replacement engine out of another TA from salvage car. Only real mods have been to run true 'dual' exhaust with dual cats. Changed the snow flake 8" wheels (still have them) for Turbo Style 15 x 8's. Running 295/50-15s. Car handles really well with the wider, lower profile tires.

The only tank of fuel I can recall checking was the one where the Group was allowed to run Bristol Motor Speedway. The Little Red TA got 15.78 mpg but included 20-25 laps...
