1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am W72 - Original & Partly Restored
Factory Black & Gold · W72 400 High Output V8 · Automatic Transmission
Original Trans Am · Partly Restored · Mostly Original Example
Pedal to the Metal Muscle Cars is proud to present this iconic 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, an original example finished in the legendary black with gold Trans Am graphics. This car is not a clone or makeover, but a genuine Trans Am that has been partly restored while retaining its original character.
The odometer currently shows 04,385 miles. The car presents extremely well, benefiting from cosmetic and interior refurbishment while maintaining its factory identity. Power comes from the desirable W72-code 400 cui (6.6L) High Output V8, engine code X7, rated at 220 horsepower, paired with an automatic transmission. The car runs, drives, and shifts well, offering a proper late-1970s Trans Am driving experience.

BODY & EXTERIOR
