In the late 70s and early 80s, the Pontiac Trans Am was on a
popularity roll! Burt Reynolds made a black one famous as the
'Bandit' in the hit film 'Smokey & The Bandit," and they were
widely regarded by most as the last true muscle car on the planet
(and also possibly the most famous film car.) As you can probably
tell from our extensive list of sold inventory, these cars are back
and more popular than ever; and the upswing in value and
collectability for pristine, highly optioned examples shows no
signs of slowing especially since the recent passing of the late
Burt Reynolds! Astute buyers are beginning to take advantage of the
opportunity to sign the papers on the Trans Am's of their fond
childhood memories before prices really begin to rise. And this
awesome 1980 model, with its rebuilt and updated 400 CI V/8
power-train, and long list of desirable options, is the perfect
investment for a savvy buyer who wants to stash back one of the
hottest collector cars on the market, or a hardcore Pontiac fan who
just wants a car that'll provide years of fun!
The pictures pretty much speak for themselves here, but let me run
over a few items with you anyways. This car just underwent a full
strip and re-paint. These cars always look killer when they are
laser straight with slick deep black paint jobs that have been
wet-sanded down smooth as glass. This process we all know can be
timely and expensive reaching up to $30,000 and thankfully is not a
worry for the buyer here. The iconic special edition Bandit decals
and stripes kit are a beautiful complement to the black paint and
make this Trans Am way more aggressive looking and desirable. Look
around this car - there is still more! How about an updated 400 V8
6.6 liter engine? This is the monster powerhouse that GM should
have put in the 1980 models. Add in an updated A/C system for warm
summer highway cruises that blows cold air, and a new interior that
is par for the course for any Bandit car. Yes its even got the
T-Tops, CB with antenna, a Burt Reynold's style cowboy hat, wedding
veil like Sally Fields' as a runaway bride, and a very convincing
windshield banner of the movie star duo to put up at car shows...
It doesn't get too much better than that! Now's the time to treat
yourself and drive a car that's every bit as nice as one of the big
dollar trailer queen cars for just a fraction of the money. As you
have seen in our extensive collection of photos, the underside is
also worth boasting about. It is clean and solid as well as
detailed nicely. Included in the sale of the car is an owners
manual and PHS documentation.
