Introducing a true classic with a modern twist: the 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. This iconic muscle car boasts a sleek, deep black exterior paired with a matching black cloth interior. Under the hood lies a powerful, ground pounding 461 cubic inch Stroker V8 engine, built from a 400 ci Pontiac block and enhanced with aftermarket Edelbrock Performer aluminum heads and intake. The engine is topped with a Holley Sniper Electronic Fuel Injection system, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
The power from this impressive engine is channeled through a TCI-built TH350 3-speed automatic transmission, featuring a 3000 RPM stall torque converter and 3.08 gearing with Limited Slip. This setup provides a thrilling driving experience, whether cruising on the highway or taking on winding roads. The fully painted engine bay, Derale electric fans, MSD ignition, and Hedman ceramic coated long tube headers with X-pipe exhaust further enhance the vehicle's performance and aesthetics.
This Trans Am is equipped with power brakes and power steering, making it a pleasure to drive. The tilt steering wheel and T-Tops add to the overall comfort and enjoyment of the ride. The suspension has been upgraded with all polyurethane bushings, subframe connectors, Caltracs traction bars, and an aluminum differential cover. Coilovers up front, along with slotted and drilled rotors, ensure superior handling and braking performance.
The interior has been thoughtfully updated with new carpet, door cards, trim, and aftermarket front bucket seats, providing a fresh and comfortable cabin. The B&M shifter adds a touch of racecar to the classic interior. Completing the look are reproduction 17-inch aluminum snowflake wheels wrapped in Nitto performance tires, offering both style and grip.
This 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am is a testament to the owner's dedication and craftsmanship, built with passion and attention to detail. It's a great blend of classic muscle car heritage and modern performance upgrades, ready to turn heads and deliver an exhilarating driving experience.
