The history of the 1969 Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am :

For 1969, the Firebird received a comprehensive facelift with new sheetmetal and a more pronounced beak, a one-year look that would be extended in production as the second-generation car's launch was delayed. The headline, however, arrived mid-year: the Trans Am, named under license from the Sports Car Club of America's Trans-Am series.
Despite the name, the roadgoing Trans Am wasn't a 5.0-liter homologation special; Pontiac's Trans-Am racing engine program centered on a short-stroke 303 cu in (Ram Air V-related) V8 that never reached series production. The showroom Trans Am instead leveraged Pontiac's proven 400 cu in Ram Air III and Ram Air IV powerplants, wrapped in a purposeful aero-and-chassis package. Pontiac paid the SCCA a small per-car royalty for the Trans Am moniker, and in return gained one of the most resonant badges in American performance car history.
Visually, every 1969 Trans Am was Cameo White with Tyrol Blue stripes and callouts, backed by a functional dual-scoop hood, deep front spoiler, rear deck spoiler, and Rally II wheels. Under the skin came heavy-duty suspension, quick steering, and a mandate: give the Firebird the ultimate point-to-point pace within Pontiac's lineup. Production remained tiny, cementing desirability from day one.
Design, Aerodynamics, and Chassis Package
The 1969 Trans Am specification was more than a stripe kit. The deep front spoiler and rear deck lid spoiler were calibrated to reduce lift at speed. The hood's functional forward-facing scoops fed a sealed air cleaner for cool-air induction. Ride height, spring rates, bushings, and shock valving were uprated relative to standard Firebirds, and anti-roll bars were employed front and rear to sharpen transient response. Power front discs were part of the package, with wide F60-14 bias-ply tires on 14�7 Rally II wheels filling out the arches.

As for this particular example, this is a very original Factory 1969 Trans Am! This car was a very solid and very original car prior to its rotisserie restoration. During the restoration, the drivetrain was rebuilt and all the mechanical components were serviced. The paint and body was stripped to bare metal and a beautiful show quality finish was applied. The chrome is all new or replated . All glass and trim is in remarkable condition. The interior of the car is largely original. The car is still retains the original seat seats, dashboard, headliner, sun visors, and they were all in excellent and well preserved condition. The car has received new carpet.
Under the hood, you will see a very detailed engine bay. It is clean and tidy and ready for the next event. The trunk compartment is also in excellent condition with trunk mat, spare tire, and jack included.
When viewing the underside of the car, this is when you realize just how solid and original this car is. All the panels and pans are very clean and have been highly detailed. New brake lines, fuel lines, and other components have been installed. As you can see, this is a very well restored car.
