Trans Ams are red hot right now. So yes, you're far from the only
person who loves a cool T-top Pontiac. So if you're going to get
your hands on one for the long term, make sure it has a true
distinction. That's why we love this 1979 10th Anniversary Edition
that a sleek look and its numbers-matching V8.
These anniversary cars were given a special color called Platinum
Silver, and this has the gloss and shine to make sure it draws
attention. More than just the special color, these cars are truly
special for their overall presentation. The hood has a special
version of the "screaming" hood bird that's exclusive to these
cars. Its wingspan is wider than others so it can be a transition
to the darker silver accent color that runs from the shaker hood,
around the doors, and ends at the pinstripe behind the T-tops. And
speaking of the pinstripe, this red and black dual line is used to
outline just about every detail on this coupe. This was truly a
unique package that was expensive to coordinate in the 1970s, and
no factory likely would even try to attempt it today. It takes
time, money, and a detailed mind to keep this car looking correct,
so it's amazing such a complete classic like this is also still so
affordable.
Inside, the silver leather interior is a standout hallmark of this
special edition car. You even have the black and red accenting just
like the exterior pinstripe, and there are other cool details, like
the Firebird logo stitched into the doors! So with this distinct
presentation looking so good, you'll be especially happy to take
out the glass T-tops and share this full uniform package with the
world. When you do, you get to feel as cool as you look thanks to
R134a air conditioning. In fact, this comes loaded with all the
best features, including power windows, power steering, a
three-speed automatic transmission, center console, and cruise
control. The stereo has even been upgraded to an AM/FM/CD unit that
features a USB input and Bluetooth. The driver gets a
leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel, and beyond that, the
dash is framed in the T/A's hallmark machine-turned aluminum panel.
So this really offers a terrific sports car experience.
The 403 cubic-inch V8 is the numbers-matching motor to the coupe.
Topped with a four-barrel carburetor, this V8 develops plenty of
torque. And the quad-tip exhaust give the V8 plenty of bass. These
10th anniversary cars were special machines loaded with the best
features, including the desirable WS6 option. That means a terrific
handling package that was the envy of its day. It includes sway
bars front & rear as well as four-wheel disc brakes. With the cool
and correct turbo-style alloy wheels carrying wide BF Goodrich T/A
rubber, this is an all-around terrific driving package.
This is the head-turning T-top classic that was built to be special
from day one. So to get such a distinctive classic for an
obtainable price means you need to hurry on this deal. Call
