Pontiac's Firebird and its Chevrolet Camaro sibling were General Motors' answer to the Ford Mustang. This one-two salvo was intended to compete fiercely in the pony car segment and compete they did. The second-generation Firebird would go on to become a screen star in Smokey and the Bandit. The third generation played the role of KITT and KARR in Knight Rider. Up for grabs, today is a lovely 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am for you to live out the Smokey and the Bandit life if desired. This reportedly garaged car has had some maintenance work carried out to keep it working well.
Exterior and Interior
This 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am wears a Platinum shade of reportedly new paint and showcases its quintessentially muscular looks while rolling on a set of lovely alloy wheels wearing Cooper Cobra GTS tires. The Trans Am and screaming chicken decals are all present and correct on this car. Further details include the quad headlamps and the decklid spoiler in ducktail-style. Venturing aboard, we see a tasteful blue and gray interior with seating for four occupants to travel. The dashboard sports interesting silver trim and contains a comprehensive gauge pack. You'll find a speedometer, tachometer, clock, and plenty of auxiliary gauges, all geared at telling you about this car's health and performance. Then, we see an air conditioning and heating control panel in the center console, as well as a rear window defrost switch. Beneath, a push-button radio takes pride of place. Checking out the trunk, it's a similarly clean affair, replete with the original toolkit to add that final bit of authenticity.
Engine
The 6.6L V8 under the hood of this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am may have been strangled by the Malaise Era's draconian emissions regulations, but it still manages to make around 220hp. This reasonable power is sent to the rear wheels via an automatic transmission. The current owner tells us that this car has received a brake do-over, a new master cylinder, new seals, new front and rear brake drums, a new thermostat, and a new battery.
