thats Jonel's 99 30th from cz28... definitely one of the prettiest TAs ever made right there!!

I think I'll get some 30th Anniversary stuff then!! Woot!

[JoeliusZ28]

97 would be 30th for the firebird, but not for the trans am. trans am started in 69

yeah but i was talking about the 30th camaro not the firebird so it was a 97. But anyways i went to vetters and had them run an alternator test. It was fine, my battery was shot. So guys next time winter rolls around remind me to take my battery out of my car cuz i don't learn from my mistakes

battery could've gone bad for other reasons than just leaving it in over the winter.

[wezeles]

ya keeping a battery in the cold isnt going to straight up kill them... a good battery will still take to a charge... i left mine outside all winter just bought it last summer, still had 85% charge so not to bad. besides thats what warrantys are for... if you can manage to really kill the battery every year atleast you will leave with a brand new battery at the end of your warranty

[thursday12889]

yeah well i bought the car less than a year ago, the battery is a little over a year old, and around here you need to be the original buyer in order to get a new battery if your going with the warranty. I don't if i told you this yet, but it was a duralast, and it was not built to last. Duralast has got to be the worst company ever. If i do any stock replacements like fuel/oil filters, anything little, I go ACDelco.

1997 wasnt the 30th anniversary for the firebird, 99' was. The bird was released in 69. You have to have seen one of the cool 99 trans ams with the white on white with blue stripes and blue chrome wheels. Those were the 30th anniversary birds.

Birds came out in '67. The Trans Am didn't come out until '69. How can you not know that?

my parents 30th anniversary Trans Am...yes it's a 99! number 1,075!
