1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am

This 1978 Pontiac Trans Am is powered by a reportedly numbers-matching 400ci V8 backed by an automatic transmission. Features include power steering, power brakes, power windows, cruise control, aftermarket radio, and factory air conditioning. This white Trans Am with a red vinyl interior is available now and comes from the selling dealer with a clear title.

The body of this Trans Am has been repainted in white. Features include a tri-tone red, silver, and black hood bird; red Trans Am decals; quad headlights in black grilles; a 3-piece rear spoiler, and color-keyed sport mirrors. The selling dealer states that some spots in the paint are showing age.

A set of 15-inch steel Pontiac Rally wheels with Pontiac-branded center caps and stainless trim rings is wrapped in 225/70/15 raised-white-letter Goodyear Tracker 2 radial tires.

The front bucket seats, rear seat, trim, and door panels are covered in red vinyl. Features include cruise control, red carpet, gray floor mats with red embroidered Trans Am logos, a red center console with a storage compartment, power window switches, an automatic transmission shifter, power steering, power brakes, a red vinyl dashboard with an aftermarket retro-style AM/FM stereo, factory air conditioning, and a 3-spoke sport steering wheel. The selling dealer notes that the seats and headliner are in good condition.

A 100-mph speedometer, 6K-rpm tachometer with an integrated clock, and gauges for the oil pressure, coolant temperature, fuel level, and voltage are mounted in a silver engine-turned panel ahead of the driver. According to the selling dealer, all the gauges are in working order. The 5-place odometer reads 2,723 miles, but true mileage on the car is unknown.

The power is provided by a 400ci V8 backed by an automatic transmission. According to the selling dealer, the engine is numbers-matching to the car. The gallery contains a picture of the numbers on the engine block consistent with the last seven characters in the VIN.
