Description

Vehicle Specs

This 1977 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am is a true collector's dream—beautifully preserved, properly documented, and tastefully restored to show-winning condition. Backed by Pontiac Historic Services (PHS) documentation, a reproduction window sticker, and its original build sheet, this Trans Am stands as an exceptional example of one of the most iconic American muscle cars of the 1970s. It remains remarkably faithful to factory specs, highlighted by its original drivetrain, factory air conditioning, and rare optional features that make it both a striking cruiser and a serious collector's piece.

Under the hood resides the original, numbers-matching 6.6L L78 400 cubic inch V8 paired to its original 3-speed Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. Together, they deliver the kind of low-end torque and cruising power that made these late-second-generation Trans Ams so legendary. Power is routed to a 10-bolt rear axle with a factory 2.41 gear ratio, supported by the G80 Safe-T-Track posi-traction rear for reliable traction and smooth highway performance. The Rally RTS Handling Package gives this Trans Am enhanced road control and cornering stability, a hallmark of Pontiac engineering at the time.

This Firebird retains its factory-correct Starlight Black paint, professionally refinished in 2012 to show-quality standards. Accentuated by a Gold Firebird hood decal, gold Honeycomb wheels wrapped in Cooper Cobra tires, and the bold shaker hood scoop, this Trans Am delivers on all the visual drama you'd expect from a late-'70s muscle icon. Additional factory options like sport mirrors, Soft Ray glass, window sill and rear hood edge moldings, and a deck lid spoiler all contribute to its aggressive yet refined styling.

Inside, the car features the Custom Trim Group with factory vinyl upholstery, rally gauges with a working clock and I/P tachometer, and even a GM-branded CB radio—capturing the culture of the era in every detail. Comfort is improved by cold-blowing factory air conditioning (a $478.00 option in 1977), power steering, and power front disc brakes. A rare Hurst Dual Gate shifter adds a touch of performance flair to the driving experience, giving the driver control over shifting while maintaining the convenience of an automatic transmission. The AM/FM stereo system, factory seat belts, lamp group, and gold interior accents complete a highly original, well-optioned package.

This Trans Am has been more than just preserved; it has been celebrated. It is a multi-show award winner with class wins at prestigious events like the Ames Pontiac Nationals and the Carlisle All GM Nationals. Further cementing its credibility and desirability, this exact car was featured in the April 2013 issue of Muscle Car Review magazine, a respected publication among muscle car enthusiasts and collectors. It also includes a copy of its original 1977 title and was delivered new to W.A. Golden Inc. in Reading, Pennsylvania.

With its documented provenance, outstanding restoration, and head-turning presentation, this 1977 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am is far more than a nostalgic piece—it's a standout example of Pontiac's high-performance legacy at its peak. Whether you're a seasoned collector or a first-time muscle car buyer, this Trans Am offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of American performance history, ready to show or drive with pride.
