Description

Ground Up Restored Firebird Trans AM 6.6L V8 4spd Air Conditioning Build Sheet ///

Fully documented and ready to roll, this brassy black and gold 'bird isn't just a bold throwback to simpler times and cooler cars, it's a timeless commentary on smart investment for the future. So, if you're in to classic American muscle and giant Screamin' Chicken decals, order up some flutes of Coors, throw on the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra's Down on the Farm and toast your next classic! Assembled in May of 1978, this striking SE tribute is an authentic factory black car that was originally delivered to Hiday Motors in Bluffton, Indiana. At some point, after it migrated to the dry plains of Arizona, the car was massaged from good condition into great condition. And today, logging only weekend miles since that thorough dust off, this spectacular F2 displays a killer coat of correct Starlight Black two-stage under Special Edition-exclusive full outlining stripes and an iconic Special Edition-exclusive Screamin' Chicken hood decal. This 'bird's stout, 400 cubic inch V8 combined the largest muscle car engine you could buy with Pontiac's proven “6X” head design to create one of the fastest pony cars on the market. That mill spins a tough Borg Warner 4-speed. Below that stellar powertrain, a rebuilt WS4 suspension combines with standard issue power front disc and rear drum brakes to mix quick stops with great handling. Modern Snowflakes spin Special Edition paint and requisite 'gold bird' center caps around two 255/40ZR18 BF Goodrich g-Force Sports and two 275/40ZR18 BF Goodrich g-Force Sports. And, between this Pontiac's massive doors, you'll find a correct Camel interior that wraps gold, Special Edition trim in a whole lot of old school comfort! Fully restored and ready to roll, this fully documented Trans Am is an impressive muscle car that's perfect for any Bandit enthusiast!
