Introduced in 1970, the second generation Firebird was only available as a fastback coupe. Designed in tandem with the Chevrolet Camaro, the Firebird was a popular halo car for the Pontiac range. Government regulations started killing muscle cars in the 1970's left and right. However, Pontiac kept producing the Firebird Trans-Am with specs that were on the edge of legality, with perhaps some fudging of some horsepower numbers. Of course, Smokey and the Bandit made the late 70's models a highly desired and iconic piece of cultural automotive history that still hold mass appeal to this day.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am for your consideration. The car is powered by 6.6L V8 engine and is mated to the desirable 4-speed manual transmission. The exterior is painted in the classic Starlight Black with the Solar Gold accents and of course the famous screaming chicken on the hood. The car also features the hood bulge, gold snowflake wheels with BFGoodrich tires and the rear ducktail spoiler. It also has the cool removable glass T-top roof panels. It looks great with excellent paint. The interior is finished in Camel Tan vinyl and is very clean. The dash is original and crack free. Steering wheel is factory as well as the shifter. It has a Kenwood stereo. Only demerits might be the little bit of paint loss on the rear of the seats.
A solid runner that features a desirable 4-speed manual, this is a fun car to drive and an instant head turn. Buy a piece of macho American history and live out your favorite Smokey and the Bandit fantasies.
