Highly optioned 1977 Trans Am for sale. This car sold new in Overland Park, Kansas; I have the Build Sheet and the Pontiac Historical Documents proving its authenticiy. I purchased from the Kansas owners several years ago and shipped to Georgia. It is currently titled in Georgia in my name. The best way to describe this Trans Am is "the car that your local Pontiac dealer would call his favorite customer and say I have a low mileage, excellent condition, just as good as new that you need to buy." It is a 1977; the year of the Bandit and the year to own.
Guys seem to always want to talk about the engine or the performance of the car before anything else; I am no diffferent. This Trans Am came with the L78 engine option; the 200 horsepower Pontiac engine; best availabe in 1977. It is also equipped with the 3.23 posi-tration rear axle. Of course, the Trans Am came with the large diameter front and rear sway bars. There is a photo of the Build Sheet that shows all the options the car came with; I have also comfirmed that the engine block is original to the car and is stamped with the code Y6 and has the car's VIN is stamped on the block as well. I did do one upgrade; I changed the exhaust manifolds from stock to the Ram Air units that were availabe in the late 60's and completed the exhaust system with Dynoflow mufflers and new exhaust splitters. The BF Goodrichs TA's (245-60-15) are new and have very few miles. The exceleration and the handling will please the owner; fun to drive.
As stated earlier, this Trans Am is highly optioned. It is a striking color combintion of Cameo white exterior and Firethorn Red interior. I had the car repainted about 3-4years ago and completed with new Phoenix graphics decals. I never thought the 1978 red bird for the hood had enough color so I changed to the later version(80-81) which is much more striking with lots of color. The interior is the Deluxe version in Firethorn Red. There are no cracks and no problems; I had the front seats recovered because of fading; but, they actually would do just fine in most cars. The car came with Air Condition and Cruise Control; both still work. The air condition is nice on hot days or just when my wife does not want the wind to blow her hair. The guages all work; the previous owner installed a newer radio system in the glove compartment, but the orignal is still in the dash. The electric windows still function. The interior pictures show just how nice the inside is today.
The pictures and the documentation speak for themselves; this is a super nice car. If you have any questions or would like to see the car, please call me Randy 770/634-3093. But remember to do this before the bid end; you are bidding to own; not to come inspect after the bid end.

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT
Fri, 10 Oct 2014The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.
