Pontiac Historical documented, #s matching real Trans Am! Very desirable Lucerne Blue. It's been frame off restored. It lived in VA it's entire life. Sold new at Davis Bros Pontiac. 1 owner the last 25 years! Out of the 49,000 Firebirds made, only 3,196 were Trans Ams. Of those only 1,398 had the optional automatic and less than 1/3 of those were blue. This is a rare and desirable investment car.
EXTERIOR: The all-new design nailed it! A longer nose, sloping rear profile and a lowered stance gave it a European sports car meets American muscle look. Other features include fender air extractors, spoilers, fender spats and the functional shaker hood scoop. The body is excellent there's no rust, damage, bubbles, or cracking. It is very straight and fits very nicely. They were offered only in blue or white, this one is repainted in its original Lucerne Blue. It is polished very smooth and glossy.

I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year membership.
