1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Restomod

Description

A car like this 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am was already recognized for being quite a wicked machine. But this restomod uses LS power, exhaust cutouts, suspension upgrades, four-wheel disc brakes, and much more to create that kind of fire-breathing coupe like you've never known before. But while you'll absolutely love the performance of this coupe, take some time to recognize the full package. They give you terrific classic Pontiac icons merged with the right upgrades. For example, the Honeycomb wheels that were on the best T/As are now a modern 17-inch alloy. And the Hurst dual-gate shifter was great for cars like the GTO, but now you get to use it here with a modern overdrive transmission. Plus, details like air conditioning, a Bluetooth stereo, and an all-around solid feel make this 1970s machine the kind that you can drive practically anytime and anywhere.
