1979 Pontiac Trans Am

1979 Pontiac Trans Am – 10th Anniversary Edition (Y89), 4-Speed Manual A True Collector’s Time Capsule Now available in our McDonald, PA showroom is an incredible 1979 Pontiac Trans Am 10th Anniversary Edition, one of the most desirable second-generation Trans Ams ever produced. This exceptionally preserved, low-mileage example features the highly sought-after Pontiac W72 400ci V8 paired with the 4-speed manual transmission, making it one of only 1,817 produced in this configuration. This Trans Am is magnificent in every way. The paint, interior, and exterior amenities remain in excellent, nearly new condition, clearly a car that has been cherished since day one. A Landmark Anniversary Edition Known by its option code Y89, the Tenth Anniversary Trans Am represented a high point for Pontiac. Limited to 7,500 units, it became the first Firebird to exceed a $10,000 sticker price, with every example fully loaded with comfort and convenience features. This special model was also selected as the Official Pace Car of the 1979 Daytona 500, the first NASCAR race broadcast nationally. Distinctive Exterior The Anniversary Edition is instantly recognizable with its exclusive and dramatic appearance: – Two-tone Platinum Silver Metallic and Dark Charcoal paint – The largest “hood bird” decal ever fitted to a factory Trans Am, with wings – stretching over the fenders – Red and black accent pinstriping – Special Turbo-style aluminum wheels – Standard removable T-Tops Luxury Interior Inside, this Trans Am delivers a level of refinement rarely seen in Pontiac’s performance lineup: – Unique silver leather seating, the first real leather ever offered in a Trans Am – Loaded with premium options including: – Power windows – Power door locks – Air conditioning – Power trunk release Rare 400ci 4-Speed Powertrain The W72 400ci Pontiac V8 had been discontinued after 1978, but Pontiac reserved a final limited batch specifically for Anniversary Edition cars equipped with the 4-speed manual transmission. This makes surviving examples, especially in this condition, exceptionally collectible and increasingly hard to find. Collector-Grade Quality This Trans Am is not just another late-70s muscle car. It is a well-preserved, highly documented, investment-grade piece of American automotive history. With original paint, iconic styling, and a clean history, it stands out as one of the finest examples available today. We strongly recommend and welcome personal or professional inspections prior to purchase. A 5% deposit is required to hold the vehicle. Upon receipt, we will reserve the vehicle for seven (7) days pending final payment.
