Proper V8 power, snowflake alloys, hood shaker, and all the best options come together on this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. So take a little extra time getting to know this classic T/A.
These 2nd gen Trans Ams always seem to have an added attraction in the classic car world. They strike that ideal balance where there was just a hint of international influence. The long hood and rounded short rear could have come from the Italians. But that's not a prancing horse up front; this has a bird that screams fire. And so this makes sure it's also a true American with bold pieces like the flared fenders, big fender vents, a louvered rear window, and the spoiler is so large that it extends wider than the trunk's lines. And of course, there's also a shaker hood on top for display. So these cars really made sure they had flair. That's why a bold Trans Ams like this deserves a bold red finish. This is an upgrade later in life, and today it strikes the right balance where it gets attention without being too fancy for you to enjoy. And the alloys bring the whole design together. After all, these factory “snowflake” wheels have an intricate design that could have come from Europe, but we all ... Please ask for the full description.

And so this makes sure it's also a true American with bold pieces like the flared fenders, big fender vents, a louvered rear window, and the spoiler is so large that it extends wider than the trunk's lines. And of course, there's also a shaker hood on top for display. So these cars really made sure they had flair. That's why a bold Trans Ams like this deserves a bold red finish. This is an upgrade later in life, and today it strikes the right balance where it gets attention without being too fancy for you to enjoy. And the alloys bring the whole design together. After all, these factory "snowflake" wheels have an intricate design that could have come from Europe, but we all know they look the best with a fresh set of raised white-letter tires.
Black interior looks great on coupes like this because they seem to want to immediately get down to speedy business. But with the look of the upholstery and the fresher carpeting, this is also a nice place to spend some easy-going driving hours. There are also the right premium features like power windows and factory air conditioning converted to R134a (will need servicing to blow cold again.) More than just comfortable, you are instantly reminded you this is a true sports car with the high-back front bucket seats, grippy sports steering wheel, a tilt column, machine-turned dash panel, and full gauge package with tach/clock combo.
Under the hood is the correct-style 400 cubic-inch V8. The shaker is there for display and beneath it is a proper four-barrel carburetor. You've also got an electronic ignition, Mickey Thompson finned valve covers, a nice set of long tube headers feeding into the dual exhaust. These motors are great for big torque, and the three-speed automatic transmission is in tune with the V8 to be first off the line and give you smooth shifting. Add in power steering, power brakes, front discs, and a rear sway bar, and this red bird loves to fly.
Here's a great T/A offered for a great price. So don't let it slip away. Call today!!!
