1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Pewter Silver Hardtop 5.3L GM Vortec V8 4 Speed
1978 Pontiac Trans Am --
Vortec Powered Trans Am Restomod 5.3L V8 4 Speed Auto A/C Custom Paint /// Leaving GM's famous Van Nuys manufacturing facility as a legitimate W-code Trans Am, this striking resto-mod has been fully stripped and treated to a 2-year, ground-up restoration that was completed in late 2016. That rebirth included a glowing coat of Pewter Silver 2-stage, which was detailed with brilliant "PONTIAC and "TRANS AM" decals. And those decals look great spliced with custom-airbrushed Screaming Chicken call-outs. Lift the... car's dramatic hood and you'll find a potent Vortec 5300 small block that'll provide miles of reliable power! Behind that mill, a tough 4L60E 4-speed sends power to a familiar GM 10-bolt. Below that stellar powertrain, a lowered suspension combines a powder-coated subframe with a beefy rear sway bar and quality Bilstein shocks. Turns come courtesy of GM power steering. A polished master cylinder cinches two Wilwood calipers around vented rotors, and two GM calipers around drilled rotors. And at the corners of those tubes, modern Snowflakes spin requisite red birds inside two 255/45ZR17 BF Goodrich g-Force Sports and two 275/40ZR17 BF Goodrich g-Force Sports. Open this Pontiac's massive doors and you'll find a cozy custom interior that's a great mix of modern amenities and classic style. The clean cockpit begins with tall Procar buckets that feature unique, body-matched vinyl. In front of those seats, a massaged dash hangs a custom, engine-turned instrument panel behind vivid Speedhut telemetry, a handy USB port and controls for modern air conditioning. A molded console is finished with a factory shifter. And in front of the driver, a tilting column spins a leather-wrapped Formula Steering Wheel. Fully sorted, from its glossy Shaker all the way to its slick Snowflakes, this Trans Am is an impressive resto-mod that's perfect for any Pontiac enthusiast!
