In 1967, Pontiac introduced the Firebird model as a contender in the muscle car and pony car segments, in answer to Ford’s Mustang and Chevrolet’s Camaro. Running until 2002 over four generations, the Firebird was a much-loved car from GM’s lineup and would see quite a bit of screen time too. Second-generation Firebirds were synonymous with Burt Reynolds in ‘Smokey and the Bandit’ as well as ‘The Rockford Files, whilst the third generation would become a much-loved hero in the shape of KITT from Knight Rider. If a Firebird is your catch, why not hook this 1976 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 455 Manual from Arizona that’s an enthusiast-owned, PHS-documented example that’s gone through plenty of refurbishment and restoration, and comes with receipts and documentation too. The seller reports that the car is a ‘tire fryer’ after all the work!
The second-generation Firebird replaced the coke-bottle styling of the first with a swoopier and more flowing body style which this 1976 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 455 Manual beautifully shows off in its new Starlight Black paintwork and sports new decals too. It rolls on 17x9 Year One honeycomb alloy wheels with Pontiac logo on the center caps that give it a lovely resto-mod style appearance. The hood sports the iconic ‘Screaming Chicken’ decal Climb aboard and you are greeted by a black interior that’s reportedly 90% new and offers seating for up to four occupants. The gauges have been replaced by modern Cobalt units, and an interior kill mat has been installed too.
Here’s where things get superbly interesting. This 1976 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 455 Manual packs the aforementioned 455ci (7.5L) V8 that’s reportedly period-correct but not numbers-matching. The gearbox is a Super T10 4-speed manual that’s been rebuilt, with a McLeod clutch and pressure plate, and a 3.73 Posi rear differential. The motor’s seen a whole lot of enhancements, including Icon pistons, Scat rods, Crower Level 3 cam, MSD distributor, coil, ignition, and wires, Holley 750 double-pumper, Harland sharp roller rockers with Polylocks, Holley Street Dominator intake and headers, Flowkooler water pump, Milodon 7-quart oil pan, Gen 2 Drop base from Shaker, and Griffin aluminum radiator with dual electric fans. Fueling is helped by a new electric fuel pump and a new tank. The motor’s also been reportedly balanced and blueprinted, with the heads ported and polished and the intake decked and matched. Braking is via four-wheel disc brakes with a new brake booster and master cylinder. There’s also new steering and suspension, with 2-inch lowering springs at the front and rear.

Pontiac’s Firebird is an iconic car. It was made between 1967 and 2002 across four generations, and the sister car of Chevy’s Camaro. Notably, the second and third generations of Firebird had significant screen presences, in the shape of featuring prominently on Smokey and the Bandit (second generation), as well as Knight Rider (third generation). It’s no surprise, given that the second-generation’s muscular and pumped-up looks lent itself well to star alongside Burt Reynolds, while the third generation’s sleek computer-graphics esque design was perfect to be the car of the future – talking and all. Today, we’ve got a nice second-generation 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am for sale from The Villages, Florida. This machine has got the Oldsmobile 403ci V8 under the hood, and rolls on a set of aftermarket Snowflake wheels. We’re also informed that the interior has been reupholstered.
The Pontiac Firebird, introduced In 1967 alongside its sister car the Chevy Camaro is one of the most well-known pony cars of its time. Directly targeted at Ford’s Mustang, the Firebird gained fame in two major TV series of the Seventies and Eighties, namely Smokey and the Bandit, and Knight Rider. That’s why even today it’s a cult classic and a desirable car despite the fact that Firebirds stopped being made in 2002.

In the current era we are living in, the automotive world is slowly but surely leaning towards EVs.

Born from the desire to be free of corporate constraint, the Pontiac GTO is a lesson in defiance. It shows what happens when men figure out a way to rage against the corporate machine in a creative way. You see, General Motors had banned their auto divisions from competing in auto racing for some ridiculous reason. However, executives such as John Z. DeLorean, Russ Gee and Bill Collins knew that this was outrageous. They felt the desire to find a way to buck the rules, and they easily found it. Because why not give customers a turn-key racer that’s thinly veiled as a street car? After all, you can’t control how your customers use your car once they’ve paid the purchase price and driven off the lot, can you? Hence, the GTO was born, with a name inspired by a Ferrari legend. Today, we have a 1965 Pontiac GTO for sale from Evansville, Wisconson. This symbol of rebelliousness is available with under 100,000 miles on the clock, a 389 Tri-Power under the hood and a Muncie 4-speeder taking care of shifting. If you want it in your life, don’t waste any more time, talk to us!
Pontiac, founded in 1926 was responsible for many all-American heroes of the automotive scene. Names such as Firebird, GTO, Bonneville, Tempest and Fiero are still held in high regard today. Sadly, the Pontiac division was shut down by GM in 2010. In their later years, they continued to create an interesting car every now and then. The Solstice was one of them, a compact two-door convertible sports car that was made between 2006 and 2010. That’s what we have here, a 2006 Pontiac Solstice Roadster from San Antonio, Texas. It’s got a 2.4-liter Ecotec 4-cylinder, a convertible top, and is rear-wheel drive as you’d expect from any self-respecting sports car. With just over 35,000 miles on the odometer, this curio could be yours!
