Vehicle Description
This 1973 Pontiac Firebird Formula 455 is the kind of muscle car
that rumbles through the streets with an authority that demands
attention. In Florentine Red, a full repaint, showcasing a smooth,
dark red BCCC with a metallic finish. The addition of Trans Am
wheel flares and 17" U.S. Mags wheels, wrapped in aggressive Nitto
255/50ZR17 rubber, announces its presence with raw street power.
The hood in its expansive Florentine Red expanse accented by two
prominent hood scoops, channeling a rush of air directly into the
engine's heart to feed the hungry 455 V8 beneath.
The black custom option interior, with its bucket seats, clings to
its originality like a carefully guarded secret. Command is at your
fingertips with a Formula steering wheel and a Hurst shifter,
poised in its correct, bent-arm stance, ready to dance through the
gears. Dakota Digital gauges take the place of the original
instruments, offering a clear view of the car's vital signs. An
aftermarket stereo head unit fills the cabin with your chosen
soundtrack. And power steering ensures that handling this beast
feels as effortless as it is exhilarating. A tangible link to the
vehicle's storied past, a copy of the build sheet, serves as a
testament to its authenticity and heritage.
Beneath that distinct hood lies the "ZC" code 455 V8 engine, still
the original powerhouse, matched to the car's soul. This motor,
with its California correctness for a '73 F body, breathes life in
through a Sniper EFI system and out through the dual exhaust,
underscored by the assertive bite of power disc brakes at the
front. Its energy is meticulously managed by a Borg Warner Super
T10, period-correct, ensuring that raw power is seamlessly
transferred to the rear wheels with precision. The car's handling
dynamics are further refined by an upgraded rear sway bar. Within
the engine bay, the optional Ram Air cleaner and the gleaming
Pontiac chrome valve covers, complement the vehicle's formidable
essence.
