Vehicle Description
There have been big investments all around this 1976 Pontiac
Firebird to give you a well-built 455 V8, a tight performance
suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, a fresh interior, and a sleek
golden exterior. So this is the big power coupe already done
exactly the way you want it.
The '76 Firebird was the final year for some key pieces. It was the
last time you could get the mighty 455, and it was also the last
time this would have the distinct round headlight front end. So
this one pays tribute to these icons nicely. For starters, the
stripe package is reminiscent of what you got on the early
second-gen Trans Ams. The fender vents and full-width rear spoiler
are pure T/A muscle, too. But the body doesn't have the full kit,
which makes this quite distinct. It gives this a little bit of a
sleeker look that's highlighted further by a very professional
application of a bright gold. This modern clearcoat paint loves to
let the sunlight roll evenly across the well-done body panels.
Plus, the hood scoop, big dual exhaust tips, and upgraded wheels
with an extra meaty rear set all point to a truly powerful
Firebird.
The white exterior stripe with black outline not only looks great,
but it's also a preview of the interior color package. The seats,
door panels, dash, headliner, and center console all look great and
remind you that the right investment were made in this coupe. Your
first glance will see a very stock-style presentation, but as you
look closer, you'll discover some worthwhile upgrades. The radio is
a modern AM/FM/CD stereo with USB and Bluetooth for upgraded
driving music. The steering wheel is a T/A-style sports unit, and
it's mounted on a tilt column so you can get a clear view of the
full gauge package with large speedo and tach.
As mentioned before, this was the last year for the mighty 455
cubic-inch V8. So it's great to have it looking so nice under the
hood. In fact, the consignor states there's only about 200 miles on
the motor since its rebuild, and the bright/fresh presentation of
the turquoise on the block seems to support that. It inhales deeply
with a four-barrel carburetor, and the mild cam gives you that
extra performance tingle. And the X-pipe dual exhaust with
Florwmasters gives this a terrific muscle car sound. But don't just
listen to the tune, follow its path in the undercarriage photos.
There you'll see just how fresh this coupe is over every inch.
You'll also spot nice upgrades like frame reinforcements and a
thick rear sway bar. There are nice driving features like power
steering and a three-speed automatic transmission. Plus, there's
enhanced control with the modern BF Goodrich Advantage T/A tires
and four-wheel power disc brakes.
Complete with owner's manual, this is a strong and sleek coupe that
pays tribute to the best of the second-gen Firebird. So if you love
