Description
We are pleased to present an exceptional 1978 Pontiac Trans Am, meticulously restored and showcasing a remarkably low mileage of 87,313 miles. This Trans Am stands out with its distinctive factory white exterior, camel interior, and striking charcoal and red decals.
The vehicle features a comprehensive restoration, including a fresh application of the original Cameo White paint and new decals. The Camel Tan interior has been fully restored, and both the Pontiac 400 engine and the transmission have been rebuilt to ensure top-notch performance. The factory color combination of Cameo White (code 11) and Camel Tan deluxe cloth interior has been verified through the trim tag, reflecting its authentic styling. Additionally, the Trans Am comes equipped with factory options such as air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, and a tilt steering wheel.
Exterior Condition
The exterior of this Trans Am is in superb condition, thanks to a professional repaint in the original Cameo White. The vehicle exhibits a brilliant shine, and the new decals enhance its classic appeal. The paintwork is well-preserved, with both bumpers showing no signs of peeling or fading. The front nose emblem and bumper grilles have been replaced to maintain the vehicle's pristine appearance. Minor imperfections may be present, but they are not noticeable in the provided photos. The tires, sized at 245/60/15, have substantial tread remaining, and the restored 15x8 snowflake wheels are complemented by new center caps. All weather stripping and window sweeps have been replaced, ensuring a tight seal and optimal functionality. The trunk area remains solid and clean, featuring an original-style trunk mat along with a spare tire and jack.
Interior Condition
The Camel Tan cloth interior of the Trans Am is in excellent condition. The seat covers have been replaced with NOS Lombardy cloth, maintaining a factory-fresh appearance. The carpet is also new, free of stains, rips, or holes. The dashboard, restored to its original state, is in excellent condition, and the dash bezel looks as good as new. The vehicle is equipped with an upgraded Kenwood digital cassette stereo, which functions properly without any modifications to the original dash. The door panels are original and well-preserved, with intact door pulls. The headliner has been replaced and is in excellent condition. All interior lights and gauges are operational, except for the clock. The stereo, windshield wipers, horn, and blower motor are all in working order. The car has been smoke-free, as evidenced by the clean ashtray and absence of odors.
Mechanical Condition
Mechanically, this Trans Am is in outstanding condition with a genuine mileage of 87,313. The original Pontiac 400 engine provides ample power and operates smoothly. Both the engine and transmission have been removed and rebuilt to stock specifications, ensuring reliable performance. The rear end has also been serviced. Recent upgrades include a new starter, alternator, brake lines, fuel lines, and gas tank. New shocks and rear leaf springs have been installed as well. A video of the vehicle demonstrates its smooth operation, with no excessive rattles or noises, and its handling and performance are exemplary. The car starts effortlessly, idles smoothly, and drives well without emitting smoke. The brakes function properly without pulling, and the addition of true dual exhaust provides a satisfying rumble at idle and cruising speeds. The engine bay is clean and detailed, reflecting the vehicle's overall care. While the factory air conditioning system is intact, it requires recharging to blow cold air. This Trans Am has been carefully maintained by previous owners, with several wear items replaced, highlighting the vehicle's excellent condition and the dedicated care it has received.
This remarkable 1978 Pontiac Trans Am serves as a testament to classic automotive craftsmanship and the dedication of its previous caretakers. Its restored condition, combined with its original features and low mileage, makes it a standout example of this iconic model.
