Car description

1978 Pontiac Trans Am W72/WS6 6.6 liter, spd, /C The 1978 Trans Am is one of the most desirable models in the history of this legendary Pontiac. It is equipped with ALL the most desirable options starting with the W72 motor, he most powerful available that year (0-60 in 6.5 sec). That 6.6 liter engine is coupled to a WS6-equipped chassis, hich is the handling package that transformed this model into "the Best Handling Car of the Year." The car turns into corners like she is on rails. Now, dd the 4-speed, hich is the only way to fully enjoy the power and agility of a car like this. The topper is factory air conditioning: 4 speed/air con cars are the most desirable configuration of any muscle car. Now, dd the luxury and convenience options like power steering, ower brakes, ilt wheel, ower windows, emote mirror, adio, tc. and you've got a car that truly is "loaded" or "heavily optioned" as the collectors say.

As to condition, his car was born in Arizona and then lived in California for all its life until the former owner purchased it, nd brought it East where he stored it in winters and kept it garaged year round. The result is a totally rust-free body and undercarriage; if you look under this car, ou will see body color paint throughout - no undercoating to hide anything. Similarly, he car received just one repaint several years ago in its original color, hich qualifies it as an "unrestored" car. This is important for both value and the way the car feels and drives, hich is like new.

Of course the car has all the factory Trans Am features, ncluding the famous "Screaming Chicken", pecial body cladding including upper and lower spoilers and air dams, port steering wheel, auge package, urned aluminum dash, ull console, actory deep dish "Snowflake" alloy wheels, 25R70x15 tires (the ones on this car are brand new), ront disc brakes, he WS6 larger sway bar, nd tighter steering box ratio. A new Magnaflow exhaust system with the correct "splitter" exhaust tips lend the car a deep, hroaty sound that makes every rev a pleasure to experience.

Bottom line: This is one of the most desirable examples of one of the most sought after Trans Ams, nd it's in phenomenal original condition. For more information or to discuss prices and/or interesting exchanges, p/down. Please Call Michael at 631 553 5300

P.S. Note that9682 can't be the actual mileage, ut eBay makes you listexactly what the odometer reads, ven though caris mileage exempt. Thus, ore likely the chassis mileage is 109k. However,the previous owner reports that the drivetrain was rebuilt and she sure runs like it! I collect Ponchos can call tell you that this car runs strong.
