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.
Exterior and Interior
Carried elegantly by those aftermarket Snowflake wheels, this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am’s Platinum Silver painted body looks suitably menacing for a car that packs a massive V8 and comes from the Seventies. It’s got a dual exhaust system, quad headlamps, an air induction hood scoop and Trans Am graphics adorning it. The most prominent graphic of course is the car’s iconic Screaming Chicken hood decal! The silver interior of this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am comes with vinyl seating for four adults. It’s got some nice turned aluminum dashboard trim and some aftermarket gauges that really go well with the overall look of the interior. We also see an air conditioning and heating control panel, as well as an aftermarket audio system, helping make this car even nicer for those long cruises. The car also has power windows and a suitably spacious cargo compartment.
Engine
A 403ci Oldsmobile V8 drives this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, fed by a four-barrel carburetor. The engine also benefits from an MSD 6AL ignition system and the battery has been relocated to the trunk. Power goes to the rear axle via a 3-speed automatic gearbox. The official reported power figure for this engine in 1979 was 185 horsepower, but it’s easy to coax much more with a few bolt-ons.
This 1968 Pontiac Firebird Convertible Pro Street is a full-on blown street machine that takes first-generation Firebird styling and turns the aggression up considerably. Showing approximately 53,397 miles, this example is powered by a seller-reported 389ci supercharged V8 based on a Pontiac 350 block, topped by a 6-71 Roots-type blower and dual Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors. Power is sent through a TH400 3-speed automatic to a 12-bolt rear end with 3.73 gearing and Positraction. Finished in Blue with custom flame graphics over a Black interior and topped with a white convertible soft top, this Firebird combines classic open-air muscle with unmistakable Pro Street attitude.
This 1980 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Restomod takes the unmistakable attitude of the second-generation Trans Am and backs it with a substantially upgraded Pontiac powerplant. Showing approximately 60,026 total miles, this example is powered by a 461ci Pontiac stroker V8 with only about 1,200 miles on the current engine, paired with a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission. Holley Sniper 2 electronic fuel injection, aluminum cylinder heads, an aluminum intake manifold, and a functional shaker hood scoop give the drivetrain a serious enthusiast-focused character while preserving the visual identity that made the Trans Am such an icon. Finished in Blue over a Blue interior and accented by traditional Trans Am graphics and badging, this build blends late-1970s muscle-car presence with a far more capable modernized engine combination.
The 1997 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Convertible represents the final era of Pontiac’s legendary fourth-generation F-body platform, combining classic American V8 performance with open-air cruising capability.

Equipped with the desirable WS6 Ram Air Performance Package, this Trans Am benefits from the iconic functional Ram Air induction system, high-performance upgrades, and aggressive styling cues that helped define the performance image of Pontiac’s flagship sports car. With its LT1 V8, rear-wheel-drive layout, and limited-production convertible configuration, this Trans Am remains an enthusiast-focused piece of Pontiac performance history.
The 2009 Pontiac G8 GT Sedan is one of the more memorable performance sedans from Pontiac’s final years, combining understated four-door styling with the kind of rear-wheel-drive V8 layout enthusiasts still seek today. Showing approximately 50,459 miles, this example is finished in Liquid Red over an Onyx/Red leather interior and is equipped with both the Premium Package and Sport Package. Its 6.0L naturally aspirated V8, 6-speed automatic transmission, 19-inch machine-faced wheels, and performance-oriented interior details give it a strong blend of everyday usability and muscle-car character.
The 2009 Pontiac Solstice Coupe is one of the more distinctive enthusiast cars to emerge from Pontiac’s final years, combining the compact proportions of the Solstice roadster with a fixed-roof coupe body and removable targa-style roof panel. Showing approximately 67,000 miles, this example is finished in Victory Red over an Ebony interior with two-tone red and black seating. Its naturally aspirated 2.4L Ecotec four-cylinder engine is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive, giving it the simple, lightweight sports-car formula that made the Solstice appealing when new. The coupe body style is also far less common than the roadster, adding an extra layer of interest for collectors and Pontiac enthusiasts.

Finished in Blue with custom flame graphics over a Black interior and topped with a white convertible soft top, this Firebird combines classic open-air muscle with unmistakable Pro Street attitude.
The 1970 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe comes from one of the most memorable periods of the C3 era, when dramatic bodywork and big-block power were at the heart of the Corvette formula. Showing 122,775 miles, this example is finished in Classic White over a Black interior and carries the desirable 454ci LS5 V8 paired with a 3-speed Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. Its combination of removable T-top roof panels, chrome bumpers, Rally wheels, and a rear luggage rack gives it the unmistakable look of an early C3, while power steering and power brakes add welcome usability. For enthusiasts drawn to the sound, torque, and presence of a big-block Stingray, this one delivers the right ingredients in a very traditional configuration.
The 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL represents the final and most developed chapter of the long-running R107 roadster, pairing classic Mercedes-Benz styling with V8 power and a luxury-focused driving experience. Showing 111,950 miles, this example is finished in Arctic White over Alpaca Gray leather with a black convertible soft top. Its specification includes automatic climate control, a folding front armrest, heat-insulating green glass, a heated rear window, and a Sony audio head unit. With its upright grille, long hood, compact two-seat cabin, and unmistakable R107 profile, the 560 SL remains one of the most recognizable Mercedes-Benz roadsters of its era.
This 1965 Ford Mustang Hardtop is the kind of early pony car that gets straight to the point: a compact coupe, a small-block Ford V8, a four-speed manual, and rear-wheel drive.
