Description
Here’s your chance to own a piece of late-’70s American muscle with this 1979 Pontiac Trans Am, finished in the iconic Bandit black and gold package. While not a show car, this is a solid driver-quality classic that delivers all the right vibes and raw Pontiac power for the enthusiast looking to enjoy a real-deal muscle car without breaking the bank.
Under the shaker hood sits a true 400ci Pontiac V8, not a small-block Chevy swap — paired to a 4-speed manual transmission, this car gives you the control and grunt you expect from a Trans Am of this era. The engine starts easily, pulls strong, and makes all the right sounds through dual exhaust.
Unlike many, this one has the T-top delete — offering cleaner lines, a quieter ride, and fewer leaks, perfect for those who prefer a more solid structure.
The exterior shows well from 10 feet with shiny paint and gold accents, though it does have the typical wear and patina you’d expect from a well-loved classic. Same goes for the interior — presentable and mostly original with minor aging, but totally usable and driver-ready.
If you’re looking for a Bandit-era Trans Am you can hop in, enjoy on weekends, and tinker with along the way, this is a great place to start. Affordable, fun, and full of style — just like Burt Reynolds would’ve wanted.
