  • Ever seen a 79 TA wit original engine oil cooler?

    Saw a low miles one yesterday.Have never seen a gas engine equipped GM car with that before.Looked just like the diesel equipped versions.Could it be a rare option?

          I have to take pics of this car.Its an 18 thousand miles black on black car,that has been inside a Museum for a long time.It could have been fitted with the engine oil cooler at a later time.But it sure looked factory.Isnt there some kind of option codes for this..?.

            there are some trans am sperts out there , is it a 400 WS6 car ? they built a few in 79
            4 speed only with 4 wheel discs
            most trans ams were either 403 or 301 in 79

              Oil cooler is standard on my 5.7 9C1 Police cars... nice big one in front of the A.C condenser. the 94-96 Impala's gm cheaped out and did the in radiator tank oil cooler. but the 9C1's still got the good external one..

                  is it an early (late 79) turbo t/a?

                      Dont know about late or early.It has a 403.The oil cooler is in the radiator.Looks like original lines and clips.
