Background Story of this 1979 Pontiac Firebird

Overview of 1979 Pontiac Firebird For Sale by Owner

Pontiac, an American automobile manufacturer with a storied history, has produced some of the most coveted cars in the industry. Originally established as the Oakland Motor Car Company in 1907, it was acquired by General Motors in 1909. The Oakland Pontiac series of cars emerged from this acquisition. By the 1920s, Pontiac had gained significant popularity, surpassing its parent company. Recognizing its success, General Motors discontinued the Oakland Motor Car Company and established Pontiac as a standalone division in 1926. One of Pontiac's iconic models is the Firebird, which was produced from 1967 to 2002 across four generations. The Firebird Trans Am variant, renowned for its high-performance capabilities, holds a special place in automotive enthusiasts' hearts. This 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, with just 87,500 miles on the odometer, exemplifies the spirit of the Trans Am lineage.

Exterior and Interior

The 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am underwent notable design changes, particularly at the front end. It now boasts distinct quad rectangular headlights recessed into alcoves, giving it a unique and recognizable appearance. This particular 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am also features the highly sought-after Shaker Hood, accompanied by the iconic Firebird decal in black, red, and grey. The front grille is split-type and finished in black, complemented by a front spoiler for added aerodynamics. Ventilation vents are present on the sides to assist with cooling, and Trans Am decals adorn the front fenders. At the rear, you'll find the signature Firebird swooping back design, along with a duck lip style rear spoiler, car width taillights, and dual exhaust tips. Completing the exterior are the 15" Trans Am Snowflake wheels featuring the Firebird logo at the center. Inside, the cabin is appointed in black, showcasing front and rear black leather bucket seats for a sporty yet luxurious feel. The dashboard features a swirl bezel design with black-faced gauges and instrument panels, exuding a classic and nostalgic vibe. The focal point of the interior is the three-spoke steering wheel, finished in bare metal and adorned with the Firebird logo at the center, mirroring the design of the gear lever. Practical features such as the functional heater, factory AM/FM radio, and cruise control further enhance the driving experience.

Engine

This 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am is equipped with the 6.6L (403ci) Oldsmobile V8 engine with induction through a Rochester 4-Barrel carburetor, which provides a respectable 185 horsepower. Paired with the TH350 3-speed automatic transmission sending drive to the rear wheels, this powertrain combination offers smooth acceleration and reliable performance. Whether cruising down the highway or unleashing its power on the open road, the Trans Am delivers a thrilling driving experience.

1957 Pontiac Star Chief Safari Wagon Restomod

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$84,999

Pontiac’s Star Chief was a full-size offering available between 1947 and 1966, across six generations. It represented the top trim level for the Chieftain model, and as such, sat at the upper echelons of Pontiac’s hierarchy. Today’s 1957 Pontiac Star Chief Custom Safary 2-Door Wagon Restomod is a bit different, though. It’s a restomod with some neat upgrades and makes for a fine classic daily driver. With over 120,000 miles on the clock, this car has been around quite a bit, but it’s not tired at all. Rather, this Riverside-based Pontiac is ready for even more action if you please. It’s got a 347ci V8 with FiTech Go Tri-Power electronic fuel injection, an aftermarket audio system and even air conditioning!

1946 Pontiac Streamliner

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$19,999

Aptly named, just look at this fine maroon 1946 Pontiac Streamliner Sedan from Manorville, New York! It’s not hard to see why Pontiac named it the Streamliner, especially with those swooping, aero-inspired rear design aspects. Introduced in 1942, the Streamliner was aimed at offering dependable motoring in the full-size segment, for the emerging middle class. Pontiac were getting ready for the end of World War II and the resultant economic uptick, and they jumped on the bandwagon quite early. Hence, the car sold quite well, but few survived as you’d expect from something that’s eighty years old. This 108,000-mile example is thus a great vintage car to add to your collection, or start a collection with. It’s got a tan interior, a 239ci straight six and a 3-speed manual box to get things moving.
