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.

2004 Pontiac GTO

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$16,999

The Pontiac GTO, one of the last hurrahs for the iconic Pontiac brand before General Motors shelved them in 2010. In the Sixties and Seventies, the GTO was a performance icon, one of the signature muscle cars of the time. However, by the Malaise Era, the GTO had to be retired…but only for a couple of decades. You see, in the Two Thousands, General Motors’ Australian subsidiary Holden was making a fine two-door sports car called the Monaro. It had all the requisite characteristics such as a 350ci V8 and suitably alluring looks. So, GM figured that they might as well import the Monaro into the United States, make a few tweaks, and call it the GTO. So yes, this 2004 Pontiac GTO for sale in Conway, Arkansas actually started life in Adelaide, Australia before being shipped Stateside and sold through Pontiac. It’s a 6-speed manual car that’s received a Lingenfelter Performance Engineering tune, plus several nice upgrades. With just 55,500 miles on the clock and plenty of features to make it suitable for daily driving, this could be your modern muscle car fix right here.

1981 DeLorean DMC 12

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$105,000

Back To The Future Fans, rejoice! We’ve got a 1981 DeLorean DMC-12 for sale today. Coming to you in all its resplendent stainless steel glory, this gullwing doored machine rocks just 4,548 miles on the clock! Introduced in 1981 and produced for just two years, the car was the brainchild of John Z. DeLorean. If the name is familiar, he’s one of the men responsible for the Pontiac GTO in the Sixties! DeLorean founded his own company in the early Eighties, asked renowned automotive designer Giorgetto Giugiaro to design the car’s exterior, and went into production. However, various internal and external factors meant that this space-age machine was discontinued by 1983. In total, over 7,500 were made, making this a pretty exclusive machine to own. This car currently resides in Parkland, Florida, and awaits a new owner.
