Description for Pontiac Firebird 1978
I have been working on rebuilding this limited (only 11% made like this in 1977 when it was made for its 1978 release) GOLD 1978 T-top Trans Am for the last 13 years. It is a limited edition and it has a rebuilt (just before I bought it and started my work on it) Pontiac 400 (not Olds 403) engine and a Hurst 4-speed (aka-4 on the floor) shifter. The car sat for all 13 years in a tarped area and was started regularly. The rear end and transmission were both rebuilt a couple months ago. nbsp;with a Center Force clutch added. The brake system is completely redone from the stainless steel lines. down to the rotors. I have recently licensed and registered it in California. It was a quite a process. because it was from a different state. Last year I started driving this car and do to recent personal issues. I must let it go to another Pontiac fan. Done: -entirely new brake system down to the stainless steel lines. -Flowmaster exhaust system made to look stock. with Hedman street legal headers -rebuilt engine and Edelbrock intake. carb. etc -repainted and carpeted interior -powder coated honeycomb rims with brand new TA tires -Frame and interior floors were sanded and rubber coated for protection. Needs: -Some body work and paint to finish it. I have replacement fenders and decals that will be included. It is a head turner for sure and is completely drivable now. The body work needed is some sheet metal and fresh paint. The old engine parts that are included are the intake/carb. valve covers. all because the top half of the engine was redone with Edelbrock parts. On Jan-18-15 at 16:40:52 PST. seller added the following information:I want to also mention that the drivers door light switch and ebrake release switch do not function properly. However. the ebrake was completely replaced when the brakes were redone last year with exception to the pedal and switch. So almost the entire brake system is new. From the master cylinder down to the most of the ebrake . As well as the fuel lines are completely new. along with the fuel sending unit and gas tank. I put a cd player in with 4-way 6x9's. It has a new windshield and all new clips for the exterior window trim. The original T-top bags come with it. All the flooring in the interior is new sheet metal. even the trunk with which also has new carpeting. I will try and upload more pictures. If you don't see them please email me and I will send more.
