Description

1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans AM Targa Top Coupe - "Resto-Mod" - 2003 Pontiac 5.7L 6 Speed Manual GTO Running Gear

We are very pleased to offer to you this great opportunity in securing this very special "Resto-Mod" 1978 Pontiac Trans AM "Firebird" on the market. An original 1978 Trans AM factory LHD example converted into a fantastic and powerful purpose built "old school" US Muscle car with modern day practicality. Resto-Mod means simply "a classic car that has been restored BUT has been modified with modern day technology and parts. Owned by a avid car enthusiast in the US and converted using a 2003/04 Pontiac GTO ( Holden Monaro) internals including the powerful 5.7L V8 mated to its 6 Speed Manual gearbox. Upgraded suspension, brakes, electrics and modern day necessities have been added to make this absolute head turning cruiser just that a "an all day cruiser" without the headaches and breakdowns with old cars. You could never do this extensive resto-mod in Australia to this effect for the asking price here and this will only get harder as the importation laws change.

Much $$$$$ has been spent making this iconic 70\'s US Muscle car into a manageable but fast touring/cruiser. The 5.7L GTO V8 has been transplanted in producing approx. 450HP mated to its matching 6 speed manual gear box makes this absolute beast a pleasure to drive and an absolute breeze in traffic, long hot days cruising with ice cold a/c also upgraded. Sports Pro Car Black Leather Seats with the factory rear seats intact and the factory 3 spoke "Firebird" steering wheel retrimmed feels fantastic and with new retro digital dials and stereo complements the cabin is a very nice place to be. Certainly the eye catching feature is the factory Hurst T-Top Glass Roof which are in perfect order and completes the iconic "Firebird" look and what\'s appeals the most. The factory iconic "snowflake gold alloys" are also in perfect order and has period correct tyres and finally the front nose was changed back to the \'71 Firebird which started the "Trans Am" movement.

This is a great opportunity in securing this fantastic Firebird Resto-Mod either for spirited country touring or historic events or upcoming tarmac rallies or just late night summer cruising. She sounds as tuff as she looks and for the value this "Trans Am Firebird" with her modern day conveniences now she represents massive value and you could not buy and build her for this price.
