Pontiac Historical documented, #s matching real Trans Am! Very
desirable Lucerne Blue. It's been frame off restored. It lived in
VA it's entire life. Sold new at Davis Bros Pontiac. 1 owner the
last 25 years! Out of the 49,000 Firebirds made, only 3,196 were
Trans Ams. Of those only 1,398 had the optional automatic and less
than 1/3 of those were blue. This is a rare and desirable
investment car.
EXTERIOR: The all-new design nailed it! A longer nose, sloping rear
profile and a lowered stance gave it a European sports car meets
American muscle look. Other features include fender air extractors,
spoilers, fender spats and the functional shaker hood scoop. The
body is excellent there's no rust, damage, bubbles, or cracking. It
is very straight and fits very nicely. They were offered only in
blue or white, this one is repainted in its original Lucerne Blue.
It is polished very smooth and glossy. It even feels slick like
Teflon. The jambs are painted slick. It has the proper decal
striping. Rubber bumper is in excellent shape, there is one
hairline crack. The grills, headlight bezels, window moldings,
taillights, rear bumper look like new. All the glass was replaced.

inch Rallye ll wheels with the correct lug nuts and center caps.
They are wrapped in BFG tires.

looks really new from carpet to headliner. It has blue Pontiac
floor mats. The seats have been reupholstered. The center console
is restored. It has a complete set of original seatbelts. The door

of me is a new formula steering wheel. Behind that is a gorgeous
machine turned instrument panel, the chrome bezels sparkle. The
dash pad is mint. It has a complete set of Rallye gauges including
a tachometer. This one was ordered with AM-FM stereo and an 8-track
player. New window cranks and door handles.

hoses and e-brake assembly were replaced. Upgraded exhaust with
Flowmaster mufflers and correct polished slash cut tips. The fuel
system was replaced, the tank is shiny. Looking up at the motor it
is clean. It has its original Turbo 400 automatic, the 1970 tag is
still riveted to the side of it. The automatic was optional at a
cost, 4-speed was standard. It has its original 12 bolt saf-t-track
rear dated 1970. The floors are clean metal painted gloss blue.
SERVICE: We inspected the car and spent $2,220. We repaired the
horn, reverse lights, left front turn signal, temp gauge, blower
motor and calibrated the speedometer. We installed correct dip
stick, replaced timing cover gasket and had a front-end alignment
done.
Wow, now that I've done my inspection, I'm more impressed than when
I started. This is a very fresh, detailed car. Rare and desirable,
investment grade.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to
assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are
answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video
that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are
displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an
appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment
there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,
your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year
membership.
