Background Story of this 1979 Pontiac Firebird

Overview of 1979 Pontiac Firebird For Sale by Owner

In the current era we are living in, the automotive world is slowly but surely leaning towards EVs. However, our fellow seasoned automotive enthusiasts recall a time when cars used to represent art on wheels, and a V8 engine would provide the background symphony. If we focus on the American motor industry, the first phrase that comes to anyone's mind is “Muscle cars.” The Pontiac Trans Am played a prominent part in this segment, gaining fame as the hero car in Smokey and the Bandit and Knight Rider’s KITT. The 1979 Y84 Trans Am, like the example we are featuring here, is a collectible "Bandit" edition with a gold bird, gold decals, and gold wheels. Current owner reports that this car only has under 64,000 miles on its odometer. Located in Delray Beach, Florida, this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Y84 Special Edition is surely a worthy car to add to your classic collection.

Exterior and Interior

Our subject 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Y84 Special Edition wears a Starlight Black coat and is crowned with Hurst T-tops. The removable T-Tops are a bonus if you enjoy the open-air feel on a sunny day. As mentioned earlier, this exterior is beautified with a “Screaming Chicken” hood decal in gold, gold grille surrounds, and “Special Edition” badging. However, the gold wheels are swapped with different Trans Am wheels with a unique Snowflake design. These wheels are wrapped in BF Goodrich G-Force Comp 2 low-profile tires. The interior of this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Y84 Special Edition flaunts shades of tan, which beautifully complement the gold features on the exterior. The driver is provided with a three-spoke vintage-style steering wheel, while all passengers are seated in comfortable plush seats.

Engine

The Pontiac W72 400ci (6.6L) V8 engine, also known as the "T/A 6.6," is a special one as it was discontinued after the ’79 model year, resulting in the vehicle price skyrocketing. According to Pontiac, this engine produces 220 HP out of the factory. Power is delivered to the wheels via a 4-speed manual transmission.

1986 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Tojan

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$34,999
SOLD

Now here’s a custom third-generation Trans Am that isn’t modeled after the most famous of them all; KITT. If you want a third-gen F-body pony car from Pontiac with some limited-edition chops, this 1986 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Tojan by Knudsen is your car. It’s one of just a hundred and fifty examples made by Knudsen Automotive, and comes with Tojan brochures plus original dealer paperwork to back up its authenticity status. With just under 64,000 miles on the clock, this rather interesting car is up for grabs in Cincinnati, Ohio, and we’d suggest that you act fast because being just 1 of 150 means its rarer than many supercars!

PENDING SALE
$29,999

What makes a car collectible? Rarity is most definitely not the key factor that determines collectibility; the car also needs to have appeal.

Present today is a collectible classic that is also a treat to drive and takes shape with this 2002 Pontiac Firebird Collector's Edition. With just over 2,000 examples made, this is all-American muscle you don't often see grace the interwebs and can be yours today.

2001 Pontiac Firebird Formula

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$34,500
SOLD

By 2001, the fourth-generation F-body platform was nearing the end of its production run, and cars like this represented the final chapter of Pontiac’s classic rear-wheel-drive muscle era. This 2001 Pontiac Firebird Formula Coupe comes equipped with the desirable WS6 Ram Air Performance & Handling Package and shows under 13,000 miles, placing it in exceptionally preserved territory for a 25-year-old performance car. With its aggressive Trans Am appearance conversion, functional Ram Air hood, and legendary LS1 powerplant, this example delivers the raw, analog driving experience enthusiasts crave—without modern electronic interference. Low-mileage LS1 cars are becoming increasingly difficult to find in this condition, making this one particularly appealing to collectors and drivers alike.

1967 Pontiac LeMans GTO Convertible

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$67,996

If you want a Sixties GTO but can’t quite stretch to the prices that pristine examples fetch, this black 1967 Pontiac LeMans Convertible GTO Tribute is a viable contender to consider. It’s available in Greenacres, Florida, with a 400ci V8 under the hood and a TH400 3-speed autobox for ease of driving. With less than 23,000 miles on the clock, this baby also rocks an aftermarket exhaust, the famous His & Hers shifter, and some aftermarket upgrades too. It’s a cool car to cruise around in, but bury the throttle pedal and it can really take off, with the accompanying V8 rumble making everyone within earshot tingle in excitement.

1957 Pontiac Star Chief Safari Wagon Restomod

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$84,999

Pontiac’s Star Chief was a full-size offering available between 1947 and 1966, across six generations. It represented the top trim level for the Chieftain model, and as such, sat at the upper echelons of Pontiac’s hierarchy. Today’s 1957 Pontiac Star Chief Custom Safary 2-Door Wagon Restomod is a bit different, though. It’s a restomod with some neat upgrades and makes for a fine classic daily driver. With over 120,000 miles on the clock, this car has been around quite a bit, but it’s not tired at all. Rather, this Riverside-based Pontiac is ready for even more action if you please. It’s got a 347ci V8 with FiTech Go Tri-Power electronic fuel injection, an aftermarket audio system and even air conditioning!
