Pontiac Trans Am 1979 Description
This Pontiac Trans Am for sale has gone through a lot of overhaul this past year. I purchased this vehicle a year ago from someone selling it locally. Before I purchased the vehicle I was told that it had sat for the past 12 years. This vehicle had bad suspension, leaking exhaust manifold, nd a rough looking interior. This car is now almost perfect with only minor details stopping it from being a solid 100%. Below is a list of new parts/labor that this vehicle has received over the past year. This is a numbers matching car with the original build sheet included. The reason for selling is I will be attending school overseas and can no longer keep this vehicle.-New rear leaf springs and rear shocks (Pro-Touring F-body)
-New front shocks and springs (Not installed, ut pictured and included, lso Pro-Touring F-Body)
-New Hooker Super Comp headers

Items worth noting:
This car is equipped with power locks, owever the switches were left out of the door panels for a clean look. Switches are included if the new owner wishes to install them.
This car is a factory A/C, ut the A/C is not currently functioning.
There is a sound from the brake pedal when it is pressed all the way to the floor like there is a vacuum leak. The local brake shop checked it out and I was told that this sometimes happens in older vehicles. The brake booster was replaced for good measure and the noise continues, ut the brakes still work just as they always have.
There are minor dents and paint flaws when viewing the vehicle up close, long with some interior panel cracking on the dash and rear passenger panel (all are pictured).
All of these things are minor and easy fixes and this car is easily a few minor fixes away from being a $30,000 show vehicle. I have personally invested $10,000 in this vehicle and I really would not consider selling it if I would not be moving overseas.
This beautiful Trans Am starts right up every time and this vehicle is reliable enough to be a daily driver if you'd want it to be. As stated this is a clean numbers matching example of what a muscle car should be. I still have many of the original interior parts which are all included in the sale. If you have any questions feel free to message me and thanks for looking!
