The second-generation Trans Am has become one of the most recognizable American performance cars ever built, and few years capture the spirit of the late 1970s muscle era quite like 1978. Fresh off Pontiac's dominant racing presence and riding a wave of pop culture fame, the Trans Am became the car enthusiasts wanted parked in their driveway. Today, finding one transformed to this level is a rare opportunity.
Under the shaker sits a Chevrolet Performance 525-horsepower 6.2L LS3 V8 backed by a 6-speed manual transmission, creating the kind of power-to-weight combination Pontiac engineers could only dream about in 1978. A custom TA 6.6R shaker keeps the factory attitude intact while the modern LS platform delivers instant throttle response, reliability, and serious street performance. Supporting hardware includes a serpentine belt system, DeWitts aluminum radiator with dual electric fans, and Vintage Air heat and A/C for comfortable cruising in any season.
The chassis has been completely reimagined with performance in mind. A UMI suspension system featuring tubular control arms, coilovers, front and rear sway bars, subframe connectors, and a 4-link rear suspension gives this F-body handling characteristics far beyond its original design. Powerstop four-wheel disc brakes with drilled and slotted rotors bring everything to a confident stop, while BC Forged 18-inch wheels complete the aggressive stance.
Inside, the full custom tan interior blends classic Trans Am styling with modern technology. Dakota Digital VHX gauges keep tabs on the drivetrain, while power windows, a center console, and an upgraded sound system with subwoofer and amplifier provide modern comfort and entertainment. Glass T-tops add the open-air experience that made these cars legendary.
Finished in gold with unmistakable Firebird attitude, this Trans Am combines iconic styling, modern horsepower, and a thoroughly upgraded suspension package into one impressive package. It delivers the look of a late-70s legend with the performance of a contemporary muscle machine, making it equally at home on the highway, at a car show, or carving up a winding back road.
