1979 Pontiac Silver Anniversary Trans Am 400
The Basics: This is my 1979 Pontiac Trans Am with a 400 and a 3 speed
automatic.
See the bottom of this page for all the details on the car and
modifications.
Not some of the best pictures that I've taken, but you get the idea.
Some of the interesting features of the Anniversary Edition are the
Silver leather seats, silver tinted t-tops, firebirds embroidered into the
door panels and back seat, silver turbo rims, red/grey/silver hood
bird that extends out on to the fenders and a special production code.
These Trans Ams got an 'X' instead of a 'W' in the VIN number.

Modifications:
- The previous owner blew the original 403 Olds
motor and replaced it with a '79 400.
- New Master Cylinder and brake lines are waiting to
be installed.
