1979 Pontiac Firebird 400 HO V8 Trans Am

Just like the exterior, the interior feels quite vintage and well-preserved. So you'll be impressed with the overall level of preservation. It's in the big things like the well-preserved style of the hobnail cloth seats, and there are little details like the working courtesy lights. Plus, you'll also love how it's loaded with features like power windows, a tilt steering column, and provisions for factory air conditioning (it will need servicing to blow cold again.) Even the Delco AM/FM stereo will play your 8-track tapes. The driver gets to face iconic components like the Trans Am's special three-spoke steering wheel, cool machined aluminum dash, and Rally gauge package. In fact, the only addition you may notice are two switches on the dash... they make the hood scoop a real function piece!

Under the hood, the quality preservation continues. The 400 cubic-inch V8 is the numbers-matching unit, and it has an authentic appearance right down to the Pontiac Blue paint on the block. The motor fires up with the kind of gusto you want in a well-maintained classic. Plus, with the four-speed manual, you get to make this T/A howl with delight as you enjoy the powerful V8. But what really makes this one special is the WS6 handling package. It includes a larger sway bar, tighter steering box ratio, and four-wheel disc brakes. This option made the Trans Am the favorite of most automotive magazines back in the day, and it still has confident moves today thanks to newer bushings.
