That sound is priceless pontiac power👍👍👍

[@peterl2017]

These and Camaros of the same era were beautiful cars as well as great handling. I think it was just the fact there were so many around that they weren’t that appreciated until recent years. So many cut up for race cars. Wish I had my 80 Z28.

[@ms79ta]

Bought my '79 TA with 403 in it in 1986. The guy called me next day wanting to buy it back and offered me more money than I paid him for it. Felt bad to say no but almost 34 years later, it still looks and runs as STRONG as it ever did.

[@R0yL33]

I like the vintage air set up. Dash controls look factory and doesn't clutter up engine bay like factory a/c. Looks like the whole heater/a-c set up from them, which is quite expensive ~$1500+

[@ghastlywarrior8522]

My god.... thats a museum condition !!!... Once upon a time good people made good cars.. Classy models..

[@jamesharrington4923]

Wow I love that I had a 79 identical to this one I put a 455 in mine too and made the shaker.hood function

Dear God I surely do miss my 1979

[@lesant7659]

DAMNNNNNNNNNN...look at that dashboard. Its beautiful.

[@brendanmah]

I wish they still made musc cars like that anymore !!

[@gator2813]

It was pretty low on muscle by today's standards, but they looked cool and were fun to drive.

[@ivanmarkovicxxx]

Loved the drone footage at the end. I have several of these cars now, & had one back in high school. So many good memories! You should leave the video up even if you sell it.

[@eddiealex84]

That car is....AWESOME!!!!!!!

[@michaelmace924]

I would too. I love V8 GM cars RWD. It's just a shame what regulations did to American cars from the 70s till about 1998. Thanks Jimmie Carter

[@timsutherland5959]

I love the sound of that Trans Am

[@nimrodrebirth7703]

These cars has become white Unicorns because so many people are noticing how beautiful these cars truly are , The design. Was genius , And the value will only rise over time

[@scottdavis2632]

Love it. I had a 79 Firebird 400 bb Made me a believer for Pontiac stamped blocks. The 455 is the big boy. Murican

[@googleusergp]

The Pontiac 400 was not a big block. Pontiac did not use the small and big block designation for their V8 engines. The 400 is a "large displacement" V8, but it is not a big block.

[@ct87gn25]

@@googleusergp EXACTLY...........

[@Tiffany.1970]

this is not a big block 455 most likely a oldsmobile 401 or 403 but it's no 455 big block

[@lonmcq7317]

@@Tiffany.1970 This is a Pontiac engine...

[@robertlowe29]

79 did not come with a 455 which in the 76 cars was denoted as the 7.4 liter This car is badged on the shaker as a "TA 6.6" which indicates a pontiac 400 motor which was always paired with the manual transmission. The cars with "6.6 Liter" on the shaker all came with the oldsmobile 403 motor and turbo 350 automatic transmissions. So in short this car is not original or not stickered propery.

[@xBrabus76]

Other than the placement of the exhaust I love it

[@incognito4rico]

Trust me, over the years you'll have dreams in your sleep cruisin around adventures like you still own it. And wake up very disappointed now that you sold it. I know i did when i sold my black 79 z28. And this was a nicer car being the fully loaded firebird.

[@andymartin2805]

Beautiful example and excellent video. Would like to know how much it sold for!

[@Schlipperschlopper]

Sadly from 2030 on all combustion cars including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas station per city or county. Now they even want to slow down all the gas pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime.

In 1979 455 motor wasn't available. This is not an original TA. Sorry.

The gold engine turned dash panel is readily available from multiple parts suppliers. A lot of folks like the look, so they will put it on non SE cars.
