Few cars in the history of the autoverse are as head-turning as
this numbers-matching 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. Fully
repainted in Starlight Black exterior, this iconic T/A sports its
signature giant 'Screaming Chicken' decal atop its shaker hood,
along with its classic T-Tops, and gorgeous gold trim, making this
pulse-pounding Pontiac look as good today as it ever has.
Inside, we find a stock-looking Camel-colored cloth interior.
Featuring a set of plush bucket seats separated by a combination
storage console/armrest. A three-spoke, power-assisted steering
wheel, featuring the Firebird logo on its center cap, sits in front
of a shimmering metal dashboard, highlighted by a large tachometer
and complemented by a matching speedometer, with a trio of
ancillary gauges located nearby. An aftermarket Jensen AM/FM/CD/AUX
head unit offers Bluetooth connectivity, adding entertainment
beyond the big motor under the hood.
Under that massive, scooped hood, we find a numbers-matching 403
cubic-inch V-8 engine that utilizes a single four-barrel Quadrajet
carburetor, feeding into a stock intake manifold. That power is
then routed through a numbers-matching Turbo-Hydramatic 350
three-speed automatic transmission before being sent to the
ten-bolt rear end. From the factory, this original motor made an
advertised SAE Net 185 horsepower at 3,600 rpm and 315 pound-feet
of torque.
