1977 Pontiac Firebird 400 4-Speed

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Introduced in 1970 as Pontiac’s answer to the evolving muscle car market, the second-generation Firebird combined aggressive styling with V8 performance and quickly became one of the division’s most recognizable models. By ‘77, the Trans Am had reached the height of its popularity, helped by its bold graphics package, shaker hood, and starring role in Smokey and the Bandit. Equipped with performance-oriented suspension tuning and distinctive exterior styling, the Trans Am remains an icon of the late muscle car era.

This 1977 Pontiac Firebird conjures up the "Bandit" Trans Am and is powered by a 400ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Previously white with a blue interior, it has since been refinished in Starlight Black and fitted with gold Firebird and Trans Am graphics, removable T-top roof panels, and a black vinyl interior featuring saddle ostrich-pattern inserts and piping. Additional features include 15-inch Keystone aluminum wheels, front and rear spoilers, a shaker hood, and an aftermarket dual exhaust system.

This 400-powered 1977 Pontiac Firebird is now offered at no reserve with a spare set of drag radial-equipped rear wheels and a clean Colorado title in the seller’s name.

Ownership History

From the seller: “This Trans Am is a fun Bandit-themed tribute car. Originally built as a white hardtop with a blue interior, a previous owner added T-top roof panels sometime during the 1980s. It features a custom ostrich-pattern interior and is the definition of a driver's car. Fun to drive and guaranteed to attract attention wherever it goes, it offers the look and experience of a Bandit Trans Am without the premium associated with an original black-and-gold example."

This Firebird is now offered at no reserve with a clean Colorado title.
