Fabulous at 50! 1974 Trans Am Super-Duty carried on the torch for fading muscle car era.
When it comes to 1974 Pontiac Trans Ams, John Friske is pretty good shape.
Fifty years ago, John and his wife Connie, who reside in Verona, Wis., bought themselves a new 1974 Trans Am. Brand spanking new, Admiralty Blue, 400-cube V-8 with an automatic. Pretty sweet car for a couple of newlyweds.
"I've always wanted a Super-Duty, and I wanted a Super-Duty back then," chuckles John. "But we were just married, so we had to be a little more practical. She wanted the automatic transmission, I wanted the four-speed, of course, but that didn't work out."
