“W66 Formula Package”
Introduced in 1970, the second generation Firebird was only available as a fastback coupe. Designed in tandem with the Chevrolet Camaro, the Firebird was a popular halo car for the Pontiac range. Government regulations started killing muscle cars in the 1970's left and right. However, Pontiac kept producing the Firebird Trans-Am with specs that were on the edge of legality, with perhaps some fudging of some horsepower numbers. Of course, Smokey and the Bandit made the late 70's models a highly desired and iconic piece of cultural automotive history that still hold mass appeal to this day.
The 1979 Pontiac Firebird Formula offered here is finished in color code 77 Carmine Red over a red cloth interior with bucket seats and center console. The car has been owned by the same family since 1981. The Firebird Formula remains in excellent condition. Highlights include Honey Comb wheels, power windows, power brakes, power steering, air conditioning, AM/FM/Cassette, gauge package, red graphics, clock, rear spoiler, cruise control. The 301 V8 fires up with ease and the automatic transmission shifts smoothly. This is a well taken care of example and is a must consider.
