When Ford debuted the Mustang in 1964 and created a whole new class of car known as the pony class, General Motors was on the case to create a competitor. They created two, in fact, the Camaro in 1966, and the Firebird in 1967. In 1969, Pontiac introduced a specialty package for the Firebird, called, you guessed it, the Trans Am. This 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 10th Anniversary is a celebration of Ten Years of The Trans Am. With 94,000 miles, it’s been through a fair bit of restoration and refurbishment work to ensure it stays at its best. Will you be its next custodian?
Exterior and Interior
By 1979, the second generation Firebird had been around for nine years, and needed some refreshment before the third would take over three years later. The 10th Anniversary (mistakenly called the Silver Anniversary by some due to the silver paint), gave the model a much needed shot in the arm. This 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 10th Anniversary bears its distinctive silver paintwork and period wheels, wrapped in Firehawk Indy 500 tires. Just check out those details, including the prominent hood scoop, side scoop and kicked-up rear spoiler. This is peak Seventies design! The interior also features a silver and gray theme in keeping with the exterior, and seats four occupants on leather seats. The current owner reports that the interior was refinished and touched up in 2021, and reportedly sports factory air conditioning. A retro style modern head unit has been installed with Bluetooth connectivity, driving Alpine front speakers and Pioneer rear speakers. We can also see a B&M billet shifter present.
Engine
Sporting a 403ci (6.6L) V8 in the much desired ‘Shaker Hood’ configuration, this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 10th Anniversary’s powerplant has received a lovely upgrade in the shape of a Holley Sniper fuel injection system with new fuel tank. The seller reports that the motor was rebuilt 4 years ago, while the rear end service was completed in 2021, along with an AC service. The engine was rated to put out around 200hp due to the Seventies emissions regulations, sent to the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission. Power steering and power brakes are present too.
The 1973 Pontiac Firebird Formula 400 Trans Am Tribute is the kind of second-generation F-body that makes an immediate impression. Finished in Carousel Red over a Black interior and showing approximately 40,520 miles, it combines the desirable Formula 400 foundation with the unmistakable attitude of a Trans Am tribute. The giant hood bird, shaker-style “400” scoop, Trans Am-style graphics, Rally II-style wheels, and raised white-letter Cooper Cobras give it exactly the visual drama enthusiasts expect from early-1970s Pontiac muscle. It has the look, the stance, and most importantly, the 400ci V8 under the hood to back it up.
The 1999 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6 is one of the most recognizable performance cars of the fourth-generation F-body era, combining aggressive styling with LS1 V8 power and the added hardware of Pontiac’s WS6 Performance Package. This example shows approximately 28,881 miles and is finished in Bright Red over a Taupe interior. It also features removable T-top roof panels, 17-inch aluminum wheels, a limited-slip differential, dual exhaust, and the signature rear spoiler. With low mileage for its age and the sought-after WS6 package, this Trans Am captures the raw, unmistakably American performance character that made these cars so memorable.
This 1992 Pontiac Firebird Formula takes the familiar third-generation F-body formula and adds a substantial list of performance-oriented upgrades beneath the surface. Showing approximately 178,966 miles, the current owner reports approximately 1,000 miles on the current engine build. Power comes from a 5.7L naturally aspirated small-block V8 paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. The build is highlighted by Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection, an aftermarket intake manifold and exhaust headers, upgraded fuel delivery, and a Mishimoto cooling system. Removable T-top roof panels add another layer of classic Firebird appeal, making this an enthusiast-focused example with unmistakable early-'90s styling and a substantially reworked V8 powertrain.

The 1959 Pontiac Catalina Convertible captures Pontiac at the dawn of its Wide-Track era, when the division was moving toward the bold styling and performance identity that would define the 1960s. Showing just 3,138 miles, this Catalina combines its sweeping open-top bodywork with a 389ci V8, 2-barrel carburetor, and 4-speed Super Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. Power steering, power brakes, factory air conditioning, and a power-operated convertible top add desirable cruising amenities to a car already defined by unmistakable late-1950s presence.
