Right here is a true monster of a car. This 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am Restomod has a truly menacing presence, with a killer stance and a near flawless black paintjob. Powered by a massive 6.6L (402 C.I.) Pontiac V8 breathing with fuel injection, this '79 Trans-Am is blisteringly fast. Torque from that huge 6.6L V8 gets to the rear end through a Hurst-shifted 4-speed manual transmission, ensuring that this Trans-Am is not only fast, but also a lot of fun. The exterior black paint is positively gorgeous, reflecting like a mirror in the sun after having been buffed to a brilliant shine and pairing nicely to the golden Trans-Am decals. Exterior bodylines are nice and straight with a rock-solid undercarriage, and a custom 1977 Trans-Am front end gives a more classy look to this Firebird. The interior is just as striking, with removable T-Tops and comfortable black vinyl bucket seats. Options on this custom '79 Trans-Am include power steering, power 4-wheel Wilwood disc brakes, fuel injection, aftermarket AutoMeter gauges, dual-sport mirrors, a "Shaker" hood intake, custom flush-mounted door handles, removable T-Tops, 18-inch "Snowflake" style Trans-Am wheels, a Kenwood AM/FM/Aux stereo system, a Hurst shifter, an aluminum radiator, and a mean-sounding dual exhaust system. This '79 Firebird doesn't just look like it means business, it runs and drives like it too. This '79 Pontiac is extremely quick, certainly among the fastest Firebirds we've ever had here at Coyote Classics! This isn't one you want to let pass you by, and we'd love to see you drive it away.
