This 1980 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am has been with the same owner for more than three decades and was transformed into a purpose-built Pro Street car with a fully custom powertrain, chassis upgrades, and extensive cosmetic work. The foundation is a rust-free Trans Am body fitted with a fiberglass widebody kit and custom paint, including a detailed and color-matched engine bay. The car retains its factory T-tops.
Under the hood is a custom-built 496ci big block Chevrolet engine topped with an Edelbrock intake and a Holley carburetor. Power is sent through a Turbo 400 three-speed automatic featuring a reverse-shift pattern, a lockout kit, and fewer than 100 miles since its most recent rebuild. Out back, the car runs a full posi rear end with 4.30 gearing.
The chassis is reinforced with a full roll cage, and the car sits on 15-inch Bart wheels with all-new tires - 245/60s up front and massive 280/90s in the rear. Despite its Pro Street character, the setup is tuned to run on pump gas, making it far more street-friendly than most builds of this caliber.
This Trans Am represents a long-term, well-preserved Pro Street build with classic style, quality components, and a rust-free shell - an opportunity for anyone seeking a street-ready big-block Trans Am with an old-school personality.
