For Sale: 1974 Pontiac Firebird in O'Fallon, Illinois

Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is excited to offer this stunning 1974 Pontiac Trans Am for sale. Its striking Admiralty Blue exterior is sure to turn heads, while the black vinyl interior provides a sleek and comfortable ride. Under the hood, you'll find a powerful 455 CID V8 engine, which is topped by a 4BBL carb. The owner has provided some documentation from CH Auto, which seems to indicate that the engine was rebuilt to achieve SD-455 output specs, however, no one is trying to pass this off as an SD-455. During the rebuild, the specs listed indicate that the block was bored .030", balanced, and fitted with a Ram Air III-spec cam. ARP fasteners keep everything together. A factory-looking dual exhaust provides that muscle car sound, and although we're unable to get any of our cameras in close enough to take a photo of the block stamping area for the serial number, the owner has provided a photo from CH Auto which shows the digits "24N116359", which you can compare to the last 8 digits of the VIN. Backing the beefy 455 is a GM TH400 3-speed automatic transmission, which shifts smartly through the gears. CH Auto also provided a copy of the Pontiac Motor Division dealer invoice for the car, showing the factory ordered options, and with the exception of the GR70X15 bias ply tires shown on the invoice, the current state of the car lines up nicely with what it left the factory with. This classic vehicle comes equipped with a variety of features designed for your comfort and convenience. It is equipped with air conditioning, however it is not blowing cold, and we don't have evidence that it has been converted to R134a. An AM/FM/Cassette head unit is installed, but is not getting power. The attractive aluminum "Honeycomb-style" wheels not only add to the car's aesthetic appeal, but also contribute to its overall performance. Safety has not been overlooked in this Pontiac Trans Am. It comes with power brakes and power steering for enhanced control and handling. The radial tires offer improved traction and durability, while the seatbelts provide an added layer of safety. The tilt steering wheel allows for adjustable comfort and control. If you're looking for the looks and performance of an SD-455 without the price, this 1974 Pontiac Trans Am is a classic beauty that combines style, performance, and comfort. It's a testament to a time when cars were not just a mode of transportation, but a statement of personality and style. Don't miss the chance to own this piece of automotive history.
