I just found a guy who probably has the last remaining GM billboards from '84 Z28's and Trans Ams. The Z28 billboard says "Z28 The Legend Lives" and the other says "Conquer the Wind, Pontiac Trans Am". These are the actual billboards GM used along side roads in 1984. They measure approx. 9 1/2 by 20 feet. They come in sections and go up like wallpaper. Now I just need to get my pole barn built so I can put them up on the wall!!!

Nope, all he had were a bunch of '84 Z28 billboards and a few '84 Trans Am ones. I've already bought half of what he had and I'm buying the rest right after my party.

Worldwide Camaro had 2 of the 2002 Camaro SS 35th Anniversary billboards. So many people asked about them that you would think that somebody would own them today. I recently found out that when WCA moved to Titusville, FL, they took the billboards to the dump. I told them for 2 years that I wanted them and many others from the local club did too. That pissed me and many others off. How could they just trash these when so many people were drooling over them and it was no big deal to them.

I hope they didn't trash the signs they had from the old Norwood factory. I think those were taken home before they got trashed

Pretty cool!
I have a 1979 Trans Am billboard ad, as well as that 1984 Trans Am billboard ad!
I just wish I did have enough room to put them both up!
Want to sell one of the 1984 Trans Am ones? And how much?
Email me at:

Thanks,

George
