All gauges, lights and accessories are working with the exception of the passenger power window, A/Cand the emergency brake. Solid car, the body is straight. Only superficial rust on the body due to the car been exposed to weather conditions in CA for a year (per previous owner). Nothing mayor, see photos. Car is all original, never been on an accident nor been painted per previous owners. I bought this car about a year back from the 2nd owner as a personal project to work over the weekends but due to life situations now I have to let it go. This car has a clean California title and it’s been in CA since brand new until a year ago when I bought it.The car now is located in Houston TX.

This is a very Rare car, per TransAmWorld.com there were 117,108 trans am produced in 1979 and out of those only 1,530 were built with the 301 (4.9L) T-top and a four-speed manual transmission package. Based on the Vin and Body Decoders this is a Pontiac Trans AM 2 Door coupe w/ T-Top 301 c.i.d 4-bbl V8 (L37) manufactured at the Norwood Assembly Plant in June 1979 (06A - 1st week June).

To make it even better, this car has the factory shaker hood which is just so cool and the color combination is really unique (Exterior: Code 24 Atlantis Blue – Interiors: Black patterned cloth).

The car came with the following factory options: Power Windows, Fisher T-top, Bucket Seats, A/C, blue Phoenix Graphix and a few more. The trunk is also quite original and features factory mats and what appears to be an unused space saver spare with inflator kit and jack.
