This original 1979 Pontiac Trans AM is part of my personal collection of classics. I bought it from the original owner of the car. She told me she paid a little over $8000 for it new in 79 from a new car pontiac dealer in Whithall Wisconsin (dealer sticker still on the back.) She used it as her daily driver here and there its entire life. She always kept it inside her heated garage when not in use and she told me she never drove it in winter conditions. Her son called me on it when they decided it was time to sell it due to her age, knowing I collect and appreciatesolid clean survivor cars.
I bought it and drove it home around 2 hours, and then I took it on a 10 hour total round trip for memorial day. This car drives outstanding. The son was a mechanic and always kept it serviced for his mom. They told me and documented the 85k miles as actual ( i have to sell exempt as its over ten years old) The body is very clean all the way around and looks really good. It is original paint. I was really impressed by the overall condition of it for being original,The bird on the hood and decals look decent still, i saw a small less than a quarter size hole on the rear lower valance by the exhaust (the previous owner told me it was from a stone chip) the interior looks good. I would call it survivor quality. the headliner was sagging so I removed the material. The material comes with the car. The top of the dash looks really good no cracks. The elbow rest in the center had a tear as pictured, easy to replace if you wanted to. The underside looks as solid as it gets. Really impressed all the way around. Watch the video so you can see and appreciate how well the previous owner kept it.
Mechanicallythis Car drives and runs really nice. I had it up to freeway speeds on my last road trip and it handled it well. The car never overheated and the trans shifted all gears like it should. The original 4.9 lt v8 ran strong. The gauges are all working along with wipers and headlights. I got caught in a rain storm and it never leaked inside the car. The radio works really good and picks up stations you never would think to come in. My kids riding with me could not figure out how to turn the knob to find stations....taught them right on the trip lol. The cb radio works great and the kids had a blast asking for "mounty checks" from the truckers and asking them to honk as we passed by.
This car has AC, it worked somewhat but will need a charge as it got weaker by the end of the trip. Tires are good and the honeycomb wheels look great. Owners manual is there. This car is a numbers matching Trans AM all the way. This is a car you can start to have fun with today. Take your family on a trip right when you get it!
