1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 10th Anniversary

Description

Introduced to commemorate a decade of Pontiac performance, the 1979 Firebird Trans Am 10th Anniversary Edition combined distinctive styling, upgraded trim, and grand‑touring demeanor at the peak of the second‑generation F‑body era. Finished in a model‑exclusive two‑tone Silver Anniversary paint scheme and paired with a deluxe interior, these cars were positioned as flagship Trans Ams.

This 1979 Pontiac Trans Am 10th Anniversary Edition is powered by a 6.6‑liter (403ci) Oldsmobile V8 mated to a 3‑speed automatic transmission. The car is finished in two-tone Platinum Silver and Charcoal with red pinstriping and a black “Super” hood bird graphic, paired with a Silver Deluxe Leather interior. Equipment includes the WS6 Special Performance Package, T‑tops, shaker hood, air conditioning, and factory alloy wheels. A copy of the window sticker details a complete list of factory equipment (viewable in the gallery and Historical & Service Documentation attached below).

This 1979 Pontiac Trans Am 10th Anniversary Edition is now offered with extensive historical and service documentation, spare parts, accessories, and a clean Florida title in the seller’s name.

Additional Information

From the seller: “This is a rare bird. It’s a two‑owner car with original paperwork, manuals, window sticker, and receipts for work done. The paint, decals, and interior are like new, with original carpet and seats, and no corrosion anywhere. Many new parts have been installed throughout the car, and it would not take much to bring it to a show‑level presentation.”

The title lists an "other jurisdictions brand" stating: "WA Antique - Over 50 Years Old."
