Vehicle Detail

1979 Trans Am - “Awesome Classic”- Atlantis Blue - Muscle Car Up for sale we have a “Primo Investment” and “Excellent Fun Running” 1979 Pontiac Trans Am classic muscle car; In very good condition inside and out. Under the hood it has original 403 V-8 and automatic transmission with 59,100 original miles to the best of my knowledge. Car runs quiet (LOL) meaning no rattles or window air leaks. It has a straight body with consistent space gaps, both doors, hood and trunk open and close smoothly with no concerns. Appears to have “no body work”, exterior paint / gold decals (and hood eagle) in very good shape with a few minor paint chips. Exterior paint is Atlantis Blue and looks very sharp. The Interior has a factory fresh look and feel where the seats, console, doors, dash, headliner, and carpet are in very good shape. It has the original factory gauges, speedometer, tachometer, oil gauge, etc. all in good working order - clock works but not like a Swiss watch. The power windows, tilt, and interior/exterior lights all work, and A/C blows cool, and heater heats up pretty good, front defrost, and rear electric defroster / & lighted switch work well. Power locks work but in slow motion. It does not have any radio, but has dual rear speakers. I bought the car with parking brake not working, wipers work but fluid spray needs work. It has the (62X) Camel matching interior - great shape. This is a high end quality Trans Am - “not” a 100 point show car but it is an awesome looker with that “Sweet Hot Purr - Wow Wow” with the car's sinister "T/A-6.6" branded shaker hood, rear and front spoilers in very good shape, side cooling ports, and honeycomb silver-gold snowflake aluminum WS6 15 by 7 wheels with the Trans Am 'gold bird' center caps. Tires are “near new” P245/60 R15. It has power front and rear disc brakes, power steering, and dual side splitting SST exhaust pipes. This car was made in Van Nuys, CA with VIN # 2W87K9L178,256 - it runs and idles near perfect, and shifts like it should. It runs cool, charges correctly, and leaves “no” leaking fluids. The frame, floor pans, and exhaust are solid and clean, very little to no rust on 98% of this car, there are a couple spots in rear/undercarriage, and half dollar rust hole on the catalytic converter. It has an immaculate trunk space and door with space saving spare tire and wheel. I have owned the car for 3 1/2 years and has been garage kept by me, and appears it was very well kept in it’s history. I bought the car for an investment and hardly drove it, but to keep it running properly. This car will make a very happy buyer, I am not selling it because I don’t love the car, but because I want to move on to other financial desires. January 2013 I was starting and running car in driveway, noticed a little fluid leakage, and speedometer jumping around not working like it always does then it quit working, I took car to Precision Tune Auto care, the fluid leakage was brake fluid, had rear brake wheel cylinders replaced, rear brake shoes replaced, brake line and master cylinder flushed and replaced with new. Had the oil and filter changed, lubed, the oil dipstick tube was faulty and I had them replace it with a new one, speedometer was checked out and they replaced the speedometer gear retainer, and housing seals. the cable was fine. The car was driven about 20 miles with the speedometer not functioning right. Also had a headlight changed out, and new belts were also put on. I had also bought a new battery about 6 months ago. Car has been very well cared for and kept up and will make a very good buy. Buyer responsible for shipping Vehicle, if not picked up. Buyer must schedule pickup prior to making travel arrangements.
