AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

GENERAL:
This legendary 1977 Pontiac Firebird is without a doubt the real deal and forms an impressive combination of pure American muscle, high-quality performance upgrades, and a look that commands immediate respect; under the hood lies a Performance Built 474 C.I. Stroker V8 built with only quality components, making this Firebird not only visually convincing but also mechanically outstanding. Thanks to the recently rebuilt TH200-4R automatic transmission (2024), the enormous torque is transmitted smoothly and controllably, while the 10-bolt rear axle with a 3.73:1 ratio provides strong acceleration and optimal traction.

EXTERIOR/PAINT:
The body is in superb condition and finished in deep glossy black, a color that aggressively emphasizes the muscular lines of this ’70s Firebird. Combined with the lowered stance and the 17” Year One Snowflake wheels, it delivers an exceptionally aggressive and timeless look.

TECHNICAL / PERFORMANCE:
The 474 C.I. Stroker V8 is built with a Butler forged crank, Eagle forged connecting rods and pistons, Howards hydraulic roller cam with companions springs and lifters, and carefully sorted and polished 7K3 Pontiac cylinder heads, resulting in a powerplant that is both reliable and impressively strong. The Edelbrock Performer intake manifold paired with a Holley Sniper fuel injection system provides modern, precise fuel delivery, improved starting performance, and optimal throttle response, while Dougs ceramic headers flow into a 3” stainless steel exhaust system that produces a deep, powerful V8 sound.

The drivetrain is further supported by a 10-bolt rear axle with a 3.73:1 ratio, Lakewood traction bars, and 6-leaf rear springs, ensuring power is effectively transferred to the pavement. The Hotchkis lowering kit with sway bars significantly improves handling and gives the car a tight, stable driving experience that suits its power output.

For extra reliability and modern functionality, the engine is equipped with a serpentine belt system and billet pulleys, while the braking system has been upgraded to fully ventilated discs with BAER T4 calipers, delivering strong and controlled braking that matches the car’s performance level.

INTERIOR:
The interior is finished in stunning red and forms a striking contrast with the black exterior, giving the car a distinctive and stylish look both inside and out; additionally, a brand-new headliner has been installed to emphasize the well-maintained condition and attention to detail. Sporty features such as the Hurst shifter and the adjustable steering wheel (tilt wheel) provide a perfect blend of comfort, control, and authentic muscle car experience.

WHEELS & TIRES:
Equipped with 17” Year One Snowflake wheels paired with low-profile radial tires, delivering a perfect mix of classic looks and modern grip.

DOCUMENTS:
The car comes with EU plates (NL), which simplifies import into other EU countries.

PICK-UP:
This Pontiac Trans Am can be picked up in Appingedam. We can assist with transportation.

OTHER INFORMATION:
A unique original TRANS AM, distinguished by its rarity and condition. Perfect for collectors and lovers of American muscle cars!
