1979 Trans Am 4 speed

W72 performance package WS6

1979 Trans Am 4 speed M21

Here we have a 1979 Pontiac Trans Am Nocturne Blue with the light blue interior with the Pontiac 400 and 4 speed transmission.

You are looking at an extremely well kept car. 1979 Trans Ams with the Pontiac 400 and 4 speed with CC1 were produced in a limited number. Only 2,917 (less then 2% of all the Trans Ams produced) that had these options, which puts them in a very desirable category.

This amazing TA here is all matching numbers with the factory matching 400 engine and 4 speed transmission.

This car comes with the original build sheet found behind the seat.

This car was sold to one of our clients last year and still in same good shape driven only a couple of hundred miles since purchase, car is located in Fort Worth Texas, and is available for inspection at any time, if you are familiar with our site you will recognize pics are taken same spot as usual, click here to see recent pictures so you can see car is in same good shape

You can't drive this highly collectible 26 year old classic around without making people point at you, smiling and showing thumbs up.

The looks of this car in 1979 marked an era, car and driver magazine was right when they wrote down "It will not pass this way again".

The change on the front fascia after 1978 was more than a re-style, was also performance, it think that the looks is unique, it is known that the new shape along with the front lower spoiler helped to keep this car cooler than previous models. Take a look at the pics, they speak more than a thousand words.

Exterior

The car is all rust free, straight and beautiful. The car was repainted in the recent years and it shines like a mirror. All the decals are correct and like new. Front grilles are just perfect, not a single bent, nor a scratch. All glass around is like new as well as all of the moldings and weatherstripping. Keep in mind that is an old car, and of course have imperfections, but I can assure that looks in showroom condition, even from very close, you will have to look too close to find small defects, but hey all old cars have them, This car is meant to be driven and enjoyed and not a trailer queen.

Rims and tires

Car came with the desirable wide 15 x 8 snowflake rims with the WS6 handling package. The rims have been refinished and are in excellent condition, look at the pics. All the wheel caps are there with the intact emblems on it. It has almost 98% new BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires. The handling of this car is impressive, and the looks of muscle car is just breathtaking.

Interior

Interior is in very good condition, seats have no rips, no tears, just nice and clean with almost no wear that can be seen, no missing seat belt guides as you see in many trans ams, Its just beautiful . The steering wheel is in excellent shape, and the swirled dash is one of the best I have seen. All the gauges work perfect, except for the clock. All interior plastic and trim is in great shape, with no fading, just a couple of imperfections on the dash that are honestly hard to notice. Rear tray package is new. This car does not have the original radio, but has a nice Sony CD changer in the dash , but it does come with the original radio, so it will be up to you if you want to install it to be 100% original. The A/C and heater works of course ( here you wont find the common phrase used in car ads like ..." A/C needs recharge , or the equipment was removed and is in the trunk, or is missing blah blah.. T) A/C is all there and works, period. The trunk is excellent, it has the original mat , original spare tire, original T-top bags, and its rust free.

Engine

As said, is the original matching numbers engine (PWH) is there and intact and has been rebuilt. It is very powerful when you step on it, there are no knocks, no rattles, no leaks no smoke, and it is putting alot of horsepower to the ground. When you take off in this car you know why the call it a Muscle Car. The engine has been professionally built and this is what the Pontiac 400 is meant to do. The 4 -speed transmissions shifts with ease and has no problems. This compliments the powerful engine perfectly. This car is a W72, M21, WS6, CC1 and there was only 2,917 of these produced in 1979. When you open the hood its absolutely clean, its evident that was extremely babied and taken care of. The engine compartment is in great shape and of course the flexible hoses for air intake are there, not missing as many cars you see for sale. Everything on this car is in excellent condition, so you can rest sure that when you take it to a show you wont be embarrassed.

Miscellaneous

Taillights are perfect , no cracks . Car has new dual exhaust and is not loud and obnoxious, and the original dual chromed tail pipes. Even though the car is relatively quite.... it has the power. All the electric works perfect like headlights, marker lights, brake lights, etc... all in working order as well as the power windows. T tops have very light surface scratches which is normal, and it could be easily buffed with glass polish; and as you know all of them leak a little if you point at them with the hose it is normal and it happens with 99% of all TA's second generation, but , hey didn't you planned to drive it with the T tops off ?

In a nutshell you will get one of the best samples of a 1979 Trans Am, these cars will be worth a fortune soon, remember that is a true W72, M21, CC1, WS6 Trans Am, just take a look at the build sheet, which by the way is intact...so go ahead and make your dream come true, indulge yourself, life is short!
