For sale in our Chicago showroom is low original mileage 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. Be sure to take a peek at the odometer on this silver bullet and don't let your eyes fool you. This car has traveled just 5,657 miles since new and is like looking at a time capsule that has been carefully hidden away in a climate controlled storage facility. This car is part of a very fine collection of cars that we are proud to be displaying in our Chicago showroom.
1979 saw the 10th anniversary of the Trans Am and to commemorate the occasion Pontiac created this special edition with options including the 6.6 Liter V8, 4-Speed manual transmission, silver high-back bucket seats, engine-turned dash insert, t-tops, factory tachometer, Phoenix hood emblem and multi-colored pinstripes. This car has been very well kept and all of the plastic inserts, rubber seals, glass and body moldings appear as new. The Anniversary edition with a 4-speed transmission is rare indeed with prices soaring at a steady pace and finding one with less than 6,000 miles from new is practically unheard of.
Recently cars similar to this have been hitting noteworthy marks at auction including a low mileage survivor that reached $187,000 earlier this year. Who would of thought when someone plunked down roughly $11,000 back in 1979 that this car would be selling for the price of a nice home. Options on this rare bird include Air Conditioning, AM/FM Stereo with 8-Track player, T-Tops, power steering, power brakes, power locks, power windows, tilt wheel, seat belts, anti-theft system, leather interior, radial tires and aluminum wheels.
