Vehicle Description
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. Call or
email our Houston Showroom today to add this one to your
collection!
