Background Story of this 1979 Pontiac Firebird

Overview of 1979 Pontiac Firebird For Sale by Owner

To many, the name “Pontiac Firebird Trans Am” brings up mental images of Burt Reynolds ripping burnouts while Eastbound And Down plays in the background. “Trans Am” is a trim level in the Firebird model line, consisting of both performance and cosmetic upgrades over the standard car. The Firebird was a pony car based on the General Motors F body platform, competing with the Ford Mustang and the Mercury Cougar. 1979 saw the 2nd generation Firebird being significantly restyled, and a limited edition was offered to commemorate 10 years since the introduction of the 1969 Firebird Trans Am. 1979 was also the most successful year for the Firebird, selling over 210,000 units of which over 117,000 were Trans Ams. It was also the 1979 Daytona 500 pace car.

Exterior and Interior

The design changes for 1979 included a more aerodynamic front end, a new rear spoiler and larger flares on the Trans Am, and a new single taillight across the Firebird range. While it is unclear whether this car’s color is original or was changed during the repainting, the gold paintwork certainly compliments the vehicle well. The iconic bird decal is present on the hood, as are the glass panels on the roof. The interior has been reupholstered and is a beautiful tan color that matches the exterior, with a matching 3-spoke steering wheel as well (one of the interior updates for 1979). The brushed metal back of the extensive instrument cluster has an aircraft-like appearance. The hood shaker does read “6.6” even though this car is not believed to have the 6.6L engine option. This car has air conditioning, power windows and a small modern radio unit (which blends well into the interior).

Engine

3 engine options were offered for 1979, including the 403ci V8 found in this car. It reportedly produced between 135 and 150 horsepower, which may not seem like much by modern standards, but it certainly sounded much better than most modern cars. A choice of a 4 speed Super T-10 manual or a 3 speed Turbo Hydramatic 350 automatic transmission were available, of which this car has the latter.

2001 Pontiac Firebird Formula

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$36,000
SOLD

By 2001, the fourth-generation F-body platform was nearing the end of its production run, and cars like this represented the final chapter of Pontiac’s classic rear-wheel-drive muscle era. This 2001 Pontiac Firebird Formula Coupe comes equipped with the desirable WS6 Ram Air Performance & Handling Package and shows under 13,000 miles, placing it in exceptionally preserved territory for a 25-year-old performance car. With its aggressive Trans Am appearance conversion, functional Ram Air hood, and legendary LS1 powerplant, this example delivers the raw, analog driving experience enthusiasts crave—without modern electronic interference. Low-mileage LS1 cars are becoming increasingly difficult to find in this condition, making this one particularly appealing to collectors and drivers alike.

The Firebird was prominently featured in Smokey And The Bandit, as well as Knight Rider, and as a result, has a cult following that extends beyond mere petrolhead circles. Today, we have a fine first-generation 1969 Pontiac Firebird for grabs in our inventory. This Lawton-based car has driven just over 70,000 miles in its life so far, and has reportedly been repainted in Hunter Green.

1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$44,999
SOLD

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.
