Pontiac Firebird 4.9L Turbo 8 Cylinder 1981
General description :
Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is excited to offer this bad to the bone 1981 Pontiac Firebird. This car is turn key and ready to roll. A true survivor! Last year of the classic Trans AM. This super clean 1981 Pontiac Trans Am only has about 39,000 miles on it and still smells like it did when it was on the dealer's lot. This Trans Am came with the Black exterior and a Black interior, this one with black interior which looks much better with the gold spun inserts found in the special edition cars. The car was lightly enjoyed and maintained its whole life. The producers of the Smokey and the Bandit 2 used this same style car for their feature car. This car was ordered with the high-performance LG4 5.0L V8 with 150 hp. This car was special ordered exactly the way the owner wanted it including; A/C, AM/FM radio, cd player, T-tops, power windows, power brakes and steering, power locks, tilt wheel, cloth interior, and radial tires. If you have a love for Pontiac and want something to show off, then this is the perfect car for you. Pop the T-tops off, jam your favorite tune, and push the throttle down for one of the most thrilling experiences of your life.
