CONCEPT TRANS AM Kevin Morgan Designs - A Concept Trans Am Then it was time for the T/A Nationals again. I set up with Dave Hall one more time. This time with more merchandise and more identity. The response was beyond overwhelming...people went nuts! I was signing autographs, selling merchandise etc. It was BEYOND A DREAM! Currenty in 2008 my 69 influenced Concept Trans Am has appeared in the June 08 edition of High Performance Pontiac Magazine. Another version of my Concept Trans Am will be featured in Pontiac Enthusiast Magazine! Watch for that. The Concept Drawings - Bringing Back The Fire                            |

I was born in 1973. Growing up I loved Smokey & The Bandit, I had a lot of Trans Am & Smokey & The Bandit toys. I loved Trans Ams! Finally in 2004 I purchased my first T/A, a 1981 T-top car. I became obsessed with Trans Ams. I am a graphic designer so when the Concept Camaro came out, I said to myself, you can not have a Camaro without having A Trans Am. So I sat down and turned the concept Camaro into a T/A and posted it on one website 
Next thing I knew I was being contacted by Hot Rod Magazine wanting to run my concept drawings. Then it was High Performance Pontiac Magazine, Smoke Signals Magazine and Popular Hot Rodding Magazine. Then I had someone email me out of the blue and say "I got permission to display your concept drawings at the Trans Am Nationals in Ohio." I was floored! So, I told my wife, we have to go see this. I took prints of the concepts out there and they disappeared very fast! I was standing there by the drawings and got asked to sign one of them...it changed my life forever! My first autograph! Later Sue from the T/A Nationals emailed me and asked me to design the next year's T-shirts and other merchandise! What an amazing honor.
From there it kept growing, I got hooked up with Dave Hall from Restore A Muscle Car. He let me set up at the Year One experience in Georgia where I met a lot of the people on the Bandit Run. I had posters & decals for sale and had a lot of positive feedback. I got to meet Chip Foose, and was recorded and on the Hot Rod TV show during the unveiling of the beautiful Year One Burt Reynolds Edition Trans Am. I even met some great people from Year One. I got interviewed by The DIY Network and was on the Burt Builds A Bandit show. It was just an amazing experience.
