In the late 70s and early 80s, the Pontiac Trans Am was on a popularity roll! Burt Reynolds made a black one famous as the ‘Bandit’ in the hit film ‘Smokey & The Bandit,” and they were widely regarded by most as the last true muscle car on the planet (and also possibly the most famous film car.) As you can probably tell from our extensive list of sold inventory, these cars are back and more popular than ever; and the upswing in value and collectability for pristine, highly optioned examples shows no signs of slowing especially since the recent passing of the late Burt Reynolds! Astute buyers are beginning to take advantage of the opportunity to sign the papers on the Trans Am's of their fond childhood memories before prices really begin to rise. And this awesome 1980 model, with its rebuilt and updated 400 CI V/8 power-train, and long list of desirable options, is the perfect investment for a savvy buyer who wants to stash back one of the hottest collector cars on the market, or a hardcore Pontiac fan who just wants a car that'll provide years of fun!

The pictures pretty much speak for themselves here, but let me run over a few items with you anyways. This car just underwent a full strip and re-paint. These cars always look killer when they are laser straight with slick deep black paint jobs that have been wet-sanded down smooth as glass. This process we all know can be timely and expensive reaching up to $30,000 and thankfully is not a worry for the buyer here. The iconic special edition Bandit decals and stripes kit are a beautiful complement to the black paint and make this Trans Am way more aggressive looking and desirable. Look around this car - there is still more! How about an updated 400 V8 6.6 liter engine? This is the monster powerhouse that GM should have put in the 1980 models. Add in an updated A/C system for warm summer highway cruises that blows cold air, and a new interior that is par for the course for any Bandit car. Yes its even got the T-Tops, CB with antenna, a Burt Reynold’s style cowboy hat, wedding veil like Sally Fields’ as a runaway bride, and a very convincing windshield banner of the movie star duo to put up at car shows… It doesn’t get too much better than that! Now’s the time to treat yourself and drive a car that’s every bit as nice as one of the big dollar trailer queen cars for just a fraction of the money. As you have seen in our extensive collection of photos, the underside is also worth boasting about. It is clean and solid as well as detailed nicely. Included in the sale of the car is an owners manual and PHS documentation as well as the fun 'Smokey & The Bandit' accessories seen in the photos.
