Vehicle Description
This matching-numbers 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am is powered by
a 400ci 6.6-liter V8 engine mated to a BorgWarner Super T10 4-speed
manual transmission with the WS6 Special Performance Package and
23,311 miles (title reads exempt). It is also equipped with a
posi-traction limited-slip rear end. The WS6 Special Performance
Package provided a stiffened suspension and improved handling with
new springs, anti-roll bars, rear disc brakes and bushings.
Additional options include air conditioning, power steering, power
disc brakes, electric rear window defroster, AM&FM stereo radio
and space-saver spare tire. The 1979 Trans Am WS6 would also be
awarded Best Handling Car of the Year from Car and Driver. The 1979
model year also saw the introduction of new aerodynamic styling,
along with new wide fender flares for the Trans Am. This example is
finished in Solar Gold with gold Trans Am decals and gold trim
15-inch snowflake wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich radial T/A tires.
The interior is finished in its original Camel Tan and includes
front bucket seats, machined-turned dash and a formula steering
wheel. The sale includes a Window Sticker and Pontiac Historic
Services paperwork.
