1979 10th Anniversary 4 Speed Trans AM - One of only 1,817 to receive the Pontiac W72 400. It is the first year the Trans AM Window Sticker would eclipse $10,000. On the heels of the Smokey & the Bandit phenomena and the success GM experienced with the 1978 Special Edition Corvette, Pontiac decided to celebrate the first decade of the Trans AM with a 10th Anniversary Edition. It was also announced that this would be the last year the Pontiac 400ci Engine. Dealers were quick to mark up these cars as much as 100%, an additional $10,000, as collectors scrambled to acquire one. So there is no shortage of reasons to consider purchasing this special Anniversary Edition Trans AM.
This is a low mile original paint and panel 10th Anniversary Trans AM. We were restoring this for a client and they have decided to not finish the project and so we are offering it for sale as is. You will not see a nicer Undercarriage or Engine Compartment on a Trans AM. Every detail is expertly done. Engine is a fresh Butler Built 400hp plus build with MARCH Serpentine Belt System. Transmission is a New Tremec 5 Speed and of course a New Clutch. The front end is Global West Suspension with Coil-Over adjustable Shocks. There is a small fortune invested in this build already and it is being offered at a significant savings. You could not do all the work done on this car for the asking price.
