Description for Pontiac Trans Am 1979

1979 Pontiac Trans Am Pro Touring

This rust free WS6 T/A spent most of its life in Arizona. The car was then sent to Elite Motorsports in Austin, Texas. They built this car into a ProTouring ground pounding street machine usingsome ofthe best components available on the market. I purchased the car from Elite Motorsports.

It started as a pristine rust free WS6, factory 4 speed, A/C, PS, Power 4 wheel disk brake, black hobnail cloth interior, non T Top T/Aand underwent a no expense spared transformation beginning withswitching the standard Pontiac 400 witha Pontiac 455 bored .30 over into 462 cubic inches of pure Pontiac torque (525 peak dyno at completion)and horsepower. The engine was blueprinted, built, and balancedby Arizona Performance Center at costin excess of$10k and has been driven very little since. This car stops and corners beautifully. It sits low and feels like it is on rails.

The interior is gorgeous. There are no cracks or rips anywhere. The entire dash looks like new. I installed a 160MPH gauge and it was speed calibrated. Everything in the car works like new. Every dash light, horn, dome light, hell even the clock on the Tach works! When you push the key in the seat belt buzzer still works. Every part of this car was done right and by the pros. Over 60K was put in this car and I have the receipts to prove it.

The car is enjoyed very infrequently and it is time to move on and make room, it is a blast to drive and gets looks anytime it emerges from the garage.
