What happens when you take an old school pony car that's experiencing a huge resurgence in popularity, throw in a rare special edition trim package that's complete with a unique powerplant, and top everything off with one-of-a-kind unrestored status? You get this original, 3856-mile Trans Am Turbo Pace Car! This Pace Car is a choice classic one of only 5,700 cars built to commemorate the first time one marque paced both the Indianapolis 500 and Daytona 500 in the same year, this storied coupe is one of the most exclusive Pontiac's ever built.
This pristine Pace Car is one of the cleanest, all-original Pontiacs we've ever offered. Thanks to forty years of exceptional maintenance, the car presents almost as well today as when it drove off the showroom floor. The Cameo White lacquer dresses a 100% original body that's straight, solid and shows only the smallest of imperfections. On top of that ghost-white pigment, tri-color outlining stripes perfectly complement a 5-color Turbo Bird. Factory-applied Indianapolis 500 door stickers add just enough visual pop to complete the car's striking and official look. And since this Trans Am has never been fully disassembled, it displays wholly accurate, and surprisingly tight, factory panel alignment.
The 1980 Trans Am Turbo ushered in a new approach to traditional Pontiac performance, and the appearances of Pontiac's wildly successful special edition packages were updated accordingly. At the front of the car, pliable urethane centers familiar Pontiac grilles below a bright arrowhead and pristine headlights that are framed in body-matched buckets. Behind that bumper, a requisite Turbo Hood, ending a decade-long run of top-of-the-line Trans Am Shakers, features an optional 3-light turbo system. At the back of that hood, black-trimmed Soft Ray glass supports mirrored Fisher T-tops. Beneath that greenhouse, Ontario Gray sport mirrors reflect tape-striped door handles and bright edge guards while monochromatic trim spears frame 4-color call-outs, factory fender vents and aggressive wheel spoilers. And at the back of the car, a contoured D80 spoiler hangs a third 4-color call-out above blacked-out taillights and polished side-splitter exhaust tips.
PONTIAC POWER
By 1980, at the hands of government-mandated emissions standards, performance had almost been legislated out of existence. That led to innovative and creative powerplants like the turbocharged V8 the first 8 cylinder turbo charged engine ever produced. Under this Poncho's turbo-specific hood. All-original, “YL” stamped and “301T” branded, that 301 cubic inch mill makes substantially more twist than the mighty 6.6 liter it replaced, and all while being significantly more efficient. Conceived as an economy offering, the Pontiac 301 was beefed up with a better block design, lower compression pistons, a better cam, a better crank and a unique, single-plane intake in preparation for a Garrett TBO-305 blower. Once that fan was installed, it created a waste-limited 9psi of boost on its way to helping the 301 achieve 236 horsepower and a 345 lb./ft. of torque.
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase a true collectible Trans Am that is the complete packageOriginal AM/FM Cassette stereoradio is in the car's trunk and of course includedin the sale.
