Hello and thank you for dropping in to check out my auction. I am excited tooffer this car to the public, because I feel that this is one of the finest second-generation Pontiac Trans Ams in the world. One thing that I want to make clear, is that this is not your everyday car. This Trans Am is of a superior collector quality, and is a rarely seen "Number 1" condition car, meaning that it is the best of the best. It is done to the highest quality and will be able to win national shows.This is an investment grade vehicle that will never lose value if maintained. Please bid accordingly!

Everybody knows and loves "The Bandit". These cars are one of the most recognizable, iconic, and loved designs ever produced by Detroit. The last real musclecar produced was the 1979 Pontiac Trans Am with the W72 and WS6 packages, which added the Pontiac 400 engine with the 4 speed transmission, along with the superb handling that came with the upgraded suspension, wide wheels,and 4 wheel disc brakes. Add into that the Y84 Special Edition package with the beautiful Starlight Black paint, accented with all the gold decals and appointments, and you have a very rare and desirable dream car.

I wanted to build a 1979 Pontiac Trans Am W72, WS6 with the Special Edition package. No expense was to be spared, and I wanted perfection.So I decided to find the most solid, and perfect 79-81 Trans Am I could find, and have it built into one of the most rare and desirable Trans Ams ever made. This particular Trans Am started out life as a solid and unmolested1981. This was the solid foundation that this car was built upon. The body was stripped down to a bare metal shell, and rebuilt from the ground up into the stunning,museum quality show piece that it is today.

Starting with the drivetrain and suspension. The engine is a 1977 Pontiac 400 block, bored .030 over, with milled 6x-4 heads. It features a high lift"068" camshaft. It has Ram Air exhaust manifolds with a full dual exhaust. The 4 speed is the original numbers-matching Borg Warner Super T-10. The carburetor is a brand new Jet Performance Q-Jet with a modern electric choke. Everything on themechanical drivetrainis either brand new or rebuilt. It runs cool and it runs right. The entire suspension was rebuilt and every nut, bolt,and bushing is brand new. This car also came equipped with 4 wheel disc brakes, and as with the rest of the car, every single component is brand new. The wheels are the original WS6 8-inch wide snowflakes, which were sent out and refinished. The entire suspension, as well as everything underneath the car, was restored, detailed,and painted....so the underside is just as beautiful as the top side. There have been around 20 miles put on the car to test and tune. Mechanically, the car is perfect. It drives like a brand new car, tight and right, as it should. It is streetable around town, but once youget out on the open road, you just can't wait toopen up the huge secondary "4 barrels" on the Quadrajet and listen to it roar as the nose of the car lifts and you are pressed into the seat. There is nothing else like it!

The interior, as with the rest of the car, is basically all brand new. All of the weatherstripping on the car was replaced. The deluxe custom seat covers were replaced with brand new ones, as were the door panels, carpeting, package tray, sill plates, console, and the headliner. The seats are firm and comfortable. The pedal pads and bezels were replaced. Even the seat belts are brand new. The stereo is a modern AM/FM receiver with built in Bluetooth/MP3/AUX inputs, so you can play music with your phone or any other digital music device. Everythingoperates, and all the gauges work. The dome lights and map lightall work. Even the darn clock and key buzzer still work. There are no squeaks or rattles.The interior of the car is absolutely beautiful and it literally SMELLS like a brand new car inside.

As for the exterior, this is where the car really shines, both literally and figuratively! The only way I can describe the car is to say that it is a PERFECT 10. There are no chips, no scratches, and no dents. The paint reflects like an ink black mirror, and thefamous golden decals and pinstriping provide a stunning contrast that will catch everyone's eye for miles. All of the graphics are correct and in perfect condition. The doors open and shut nicely. There are no imperfections to be found anywhere. The underside of the car is just as nice as the top side is. I can not stress the point enough.....this Trans Am is absolutely beautiful. Can you imagine rolling into your local cruise night with this thing? Or taking it to a national show and putting mirrors underneath it? Show it or drive it.....it's up to you!

To sum up this Trans Am, you will be purchasing a car that is BETTER than the one that rolled off the assembly line in 1979. This car is a true time machine. I set out to build the perfect Trans Am, and I think this one is one of the finest in not only the USA, but the entire world. It has all the options you could ever ask for: 400 Pontiac, 4 speed, T-tops, black on black with the Special Edition package, and the WS6 Handling Package with 4 wheel disc brakes........and to top it all off, every single nut and bolt on the car is perfect. This car has never been shown, so the new owner will be the first to reap the rewards of all the shows this car wins in the future. Don't waste your time looking around for a better one or having one restored. This one is DONE, and it's as right and as perfect as it gets. Just slide in, turn the key, and watch the "shaker" scoop shake as you roar off into the night with the wind in your hair!
