Screamin’ Smokey — the ’81 Trans Am

-

The Pontiac Trans Am could hardly be called a sleeper or a wallflower, but we reckon that’s the point. Ashley takes a look at the history of the ‘Screaming Chicken’ most famous for taking Burt Reynolds coast-to-coast in Smokey and the Bandit, and chats to the owners of this ground-up rebuilt example, Brian and Enid Service, which even includes the requisite CB radio and confederat­e flag plates.
