For Sale: 1974 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am in Marietta, Georgia

Vehicle Description

Offered by Collectible Motorcar of Atlanta is this wicked 1974 Pontiac Trans Am restomod - a second-gen F-body that blends iconic Trans Am looks with modern LS power, pro-touring suspension, and a custom interior that's all business. Finished in a brilliant custom-mix Red with bold hood bird graphics, this car looks every bit as serious as it drives.

Drivetrain & Performance
Under the shaker-style hood lives a 350 HP LS1 fuel-injected V8, giving this '74 the reliability and punch of a modern powerplant with that unmistakable Trans Am attitude. The engine bay is clean and purpose-built:

Coated headers feed a free-flowing dual exhaust system with Turbo mufflers, delivering a deep, aggressive tone without being obnoxious.

A polished aluminum radiator and electric fan keep temps in check, even in traffic or spirited driving.

The LS1 is backed by a 4L60 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission, making highway cruising comfortable while still responding quickly when you dip into the throttle.

Out back, a heavy-duty Moser Positraction rear axle puts the power to the pavement and is built to handle the extra horsepower and grip from the modern suspension and tire package.

Suspension, Steering & Brakes
This Trans Am is far more than a cosmetic build - the chassis has been upgraded front to rear:

Tubular front upper and lower control arms paired with front coilovers sharpen steering response and allow precise ride-height tuning.

The rear features a coilover suspension as well, giving the car a true four-corner coilover setup for modern handling and improved ride quality.

Power steering makes low-speed maneuvering easy while still giving good feedback at speed.

Stopping power comes from 4-wheel power disc brakes, with large drilled/slotted rotors and red multi-piston calipers visible behind the wheels - a serious upgrade over stock T/A hardware.

The undercarriage photos show clean, painted components and neatly routed exhaust, confirming this is a properly thought-out pro-touring style build, not just a quick cosmetic swap.

Exterior
From any angle, this car has presence. The body wears a high-gloss custom Red paint that highlights the muscular second-gen Trans Am lines. The finish has great depth and shine, complemented by black and gold graphics:

Trans Am style hood with functional scoop and a large "Screaming Chicken" hood bird that instantly identifies it as a T/A.

Trans Am style wheel fairings/flares and front air dam give the car the classic wide, planted stance enthusiasts love.

Modern black multi-spoke wheels with polished lips are wrapped in Continental performance radials, filling the wheel wells just right and adding to the aggressive look.

The overall effect is a car that looks like a classic T/A at first glance but clearly reveals its modern, purpose-built character the closer you get.

Interior
The interior is a custom environment built for spirited driving and shows:

Recaro-style bucket seats with plaid inserts and RJS racing harnesses, keeping driver and passenger firmly planted.

A custom red and black color scheme flows from the door panels through the center console and rear shelf, tying the cabin visually to the exterior.

The stock gauge cluster has been re-imagined with AutoMeter Phantom white-face gauges for RPM, speed, and key engine vitals, giving a race-car look and easy readability.

A billet steering wheel with carbon-look rim provides a modern, performance feel in your hands.

A custom center console houses a B&M-style shifter, cupholders, and controls, while a rear-seat delete with integrated roll bar underscores the car's pro-touring/intended track-day personality.

The result is a cockpit that feels tight, focused, and far more contemporary than a factory '74, yet still unmistakably Trans Am.

Fuel System & Rear Details
At the back, the car features a quick-fill rear fuel tank, giving it a purposeful, race-inspired look and adding practicality at the track or fuel stop. The underside photos highlight the Moser rear end with a finned aluminum cover and the neatly routed dual exhaust system.

Documentation
Included with the car is a collection of receipts, parts documentation, and installation literature for many of the upgrades - from suspension and brake components to engine and accessory items. This paperwork helps validate the quality of the build and gives the next owner a clear look at what went into creating this Trans Am.

Final Thoughts
If you've been hunting for a second-gen Trans Am that:

Delivers modern LS power and overdrive,

Rides on full coilover suspension with tubular front control arms,

Stops hard with 4-wheel power disc brakes,

Features a custom interior with Recaro seats and racing harnesses, and

Still looks every bit the part with its custom Red paint, hood bird, and T/A flares,

then this 1974 Pontiac Trans Am LS1 restomod deserves your serious attention. It's a sharp, well-sorted, and highly detailed build that's ready for cruise nights, pro-touring events, or simply turning every head on your way to work.
