For Sale: 1985 Pontiac Firebird in Mesa, Arizona

This 1985 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am has a very vintage style with terrific factory pieces, like the two-tone paint, Recaro seat interior, and desirable WS6 sports suspension. Plus, there have been some solid investments, including a pricey rebuild of the fuel-injected V8 earlier this year. It makes for quite an appealing low-mileage classic that comes with exceptional documentation, too.


The third-generation T/A had its styling revised a few years into the run to maximize the impact of its sharp-edge styling. The factory body kit, louvered hood, and extensive rear spoiler really brought out the best in a sports car designed with the low nose and pop-up headlights. And as you look over the pictures, you're going to find a very well-preserved car. After all, it has averaged under 1,600 miles annually. The black paint is believed to be the original factory application, and it has an ideal balance of a survivor style while still keeping plenty of gloss to attract attention. And the gold lower body section and gold 16-inch alloys give this a premium two-tone look that's timeless on a T/A.


We have the original window sticker for this coupe, and it's such a loaded machine it took up two pages with its options! You can especially see that inside where only the premium Pontiacs got the Recaro front bucket seats. They look excellent, and the full interior reminds you of the less use you get on a low mileage classic. There are a ton of desirable features, like power windows, power locks, cruise control, power side mirrors, an armrest center console, power steering, and a three-spoke sports steering wheel on a tilt column. There are also provisions for the premium AM/FM/cassette stereo with upgraded speakers and factory air conditioning (they will need servicing to function again.) And of course, we know you love having the T-tops so you can open it up to the world.


Under the hood is the numbers-matching 305 cubic-inch V8. It looks exceptionally tidy because there was a huge investment here. We have receipts documenting nearly $10k invested earlier this year in rebuilding the motor. It also included the supporting areas, like a new radiator, new exhaust, and resealing the four-speed automatic transmission. The result is a fuel-injected powerhouse that fires up like new, has a good idle, and shifts smoothly. So this low-mileage T/A loves to hit the road. And the optional WS6 suspension means it's a terrific handling car that includes sway bars and four-wheel disc brakes.


The sale comes complete with the original window sticker, owner's manual packet, and the receipts documenting the big investment in the motor. So if you're looking for a loaded and preserved black & gold T/A, you know this one is truly irresistible. Call today!!!
