Description for Pontiac Trans Am 1979
The 1979 Trans Am is already an irresistible-looking classic with V8 power, but when you add in bold paint and an A/C interior, it makes this an all-around stunner at an obtainable price.The second-generation Trans Am was a seriously intimidating package. The wide ground effects in front of the wheel wells, integrated rear spoiler, and shaker-style hood, gives this a real presence on the streets. When the dent-resistant Endura front end is as complete as this one, it's a dead giveaway someone took serious care of this coupe. This new for 1979 look gave this one a more aggressive beak, that perfectly complements the hallmark hood bird graphic. It only gets better as this whole car looks like it's breathing fire thanks to the blazing paintwork. It's the kind of bright red that helps grab attention away from the black Smokey and the Bandit replicas. In fact, this one reminds us a bit of another famous Burt Reynolds Pontiac. Remember the red Trans Am hardtop from the movie Hooper? Yes, this one certainly looks the part from that speed demon stuntman flick. Inside is a selection of the perfect features. The black cloth buckets are high-backed and well bolstered for an exceptionally nice feeling. Other comfort options include the power windows, power locks, cruise control, and a tilt column for the iconic three-spoke steering wheel. The driver gets to face the cool machined aluminum dash, and everyone gets an upgrade with the AM/FM/CD stereo. Speaking of everyone's comfort, there's nothing better than having the factory air conditioning ready to cool down this red-hot Trans Am.The 403 cubic-inch V8 is the correct powerplant for this coupe, and it even features a date-correct block. It lives in an exceptionally tidy engine bay that has the blue block radiating from within the deep black components. But what everyone will really take notice of is the ultra-cool shaker-style air topper (although this still correctly inhales through the front.) But more than just look cool, the V8 inhales deeply through the correct Rochester four-barrel carburetor, and exhales with a sweet rumble out of the dual exhaust. The big torque of the big V8 moves the sporty coupe easily, but there's more to this car's story. The Trans Ams were celebrated for being one of the best handing vehicles of their time, and that's thanks to a full package that includes front disc brakes and BF Goodrich T/As on the iconic snowflake wheels. Add in the three-speed automatic transmission and power steering, and this is a great all around classic cruiser.A great V8 classic that looks stellar inside and out, and it has all the right features you want. It's a total package classic that won't wait long at this price. Call now!!
