Pontiac : Firebird - Transam

Pontiac Firebird

~ Transam ~

6. 6 litre

403 cubic inch V8

1979

3. 90 original miles!!!

This is an amazingly "perfect" factory condition Firebird Transam with a stunningly low 3. 90 original miles. Purchased by a fanatic when new. it was only titled and not registered until the first time in 2010 when it showed 140 miles on the odometer! Owned by museum collectors its whole life it is perhaps without doubt the lowest mileage Firebird of its kind on the planet. Obviously very rarely driven she has been climate control stored her whole cosseted life.

Finished in Solar Gold (50) with all her factory original decals and matching Camel tan Lombardy II and Hobnail cloth interior (62B). All so VERY 70s and looks a treat!

This Firebird is of true and unquestionable museum quality. It has its all original body. with virtually perfect paint and finishes. All in excellent original condition and great presentation. The paint appears to be completely original with absolutely no signs of accident damage and with only the most minor blemish and mark. She presents beautifully with no rust whatsoever. Underneath the car is pristinely clean as you would expect.

The cloth interior is simply perfect without any signs of wear. marks or blemishes of any kind. The headlining is like new without any wear or scuffs whatsoever. All finishes. chrome. steering wheel and carpets present beautifully. It is truly very nice and sumptuously inviting. Even the steering column near the key. where it is normally scratched from even modest use. is entirely blemish free and looks like new. It is the virtual "new appearance" of the car that will really attract the period conscientious buyer.

Everything is completely original and in factory condition. The only thing that was changed was the radio to offer the benefit of USB inputs and CD. The original unit has been retained and comes with the car.

Mechanically excellent. This is the big 6. 6 litre (403cubic inch) higher compression Oldsmobile engine with automatic transmission combination. Simply. an ultra-smooth highway sports-cruiser that fires up first time. every time. Brand new battery. excellent original tyres and brakes and just great to drive. You won't find a better condition classic late 70s muscle car than this. She is STUNNING!

The car has its original unused spare. jack. tools and manual and also comes with original build sheet. dealer invoice and sales invoice.

 

~~ Literally an "AS-NEW" Pontiac Firebird Transam. An iconic symbol of late 70s muscle in its own right and then made more famous by very likeable actors; Burt Reynolds (Smokey and the bandit) and James Garner (Rockford Files). This Transam symbolizes the 70s and is in simply perfect low mileage condition. True museum quality.  ~~

This Transam is part of a private collection. Although licensed and bonded. I am not a main-stream retail car dealer or broker; I am a professional car collector of some 35 years with considerable experience and knowledge of predominantly British cars. I simply love excellent condition cars of a wide variety and simply love cars! I take a lot of pride in my cars and have fun in collecting and restoring them.  However. auctions are not a game so when you place a bid or offer. and you are the winning bidder. please understand you have entered a binding contract.  You cannot bid and win the auction and expect not to meet the terms and conditions. Bidding and/or winning does not mean you are expecting me to “hold” the car until you have the opportunity to inspect it. Any inspection contemplated should be undertaken BEFORE you bid or make an offer and I openly welcome any potential buyer to come and personally inspect the car. Once you bid or make an offer. you are doing so to buy WITHOUT conditions. A $1000. 00 deposit (non-refundable) is required within 24 hours of the close of the auction and payable by PayPal.  The balance of funds are required within 7 days of the close of the auction and must be provided by cashier's check or bank wire.  I cannot accept PayPal for the balance unless you are willing to meet the cost of transfer fees. Full payment must be made (and payments cleared) before the title and/or the vehicle is released. All payments are non-refundable. Payments as described above form an important part of this purchase contract and so. if all the funds are not received as outlined above. I reserve the right to terminate the transaction without notice. If there has been any deposit or other part payments received and I elect to terminate the contract. I reserve the right to keep any such deposits or payments and resell the vehicle to another bidder or interested party or re-list the vehicle at any time. I am happy to assist with shipping arrangements on a national and worldwide basis but the winning bidder takes full responsibility for pickup and/or shipping and at his cost.

As a collector and experienced restorer of a variety of cars. I make every effort to bring my cars to a very high standard. Unless specifically stated. the car is not of show standard but of good quality "driver" condition. Please understand. the very nature of any classic car of any kind is such that it is not always possible to attend to every single item. or perhaps I may have inadvertently overlooked an item. Please note. fitted radio/stereo systems are usually subject to upgrade by purchasers so I do not ensure operation of these but simply keep the "original look". Further. a feature or function that is working perfectly one moment. may decide to play-up the next. After all. it is some 35 years old. For this reason it is necessary for the following condition:  

The vehicle is being sold "as-is/where-is" with no warranty expressed. written or implied.  Any descriptions or representations are made with reasonable judgment and all efforts are made to ensure fair assessment and accuracy but they are for descriptive and identification purposes only and are not to be construed as a warranty of any type. The seller shall not be responsible for errors in description. authenticity. genuineness. or defects herein and makes no warranty in connection therewith. No allowance or set aside will be made on account of any incorrectness. unforeseen imperfection. defect or damage.  It is the responsibility of the buyer to have satisfied himself as to the condition and value and to bid based upon that judgment solely.  The seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects at the buyer's request prior to the close of the auction.   Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle.  Being a classic car in excess of 10 years of age. in most US states. the mileage may be recorded as “exempt”. In this regard the seller makes no warranties as to the accuracy of the mileage indicated or shown. I can hold the vehicle up to 30 days while you arrange shipping but you must immediately insure it. I will not bear any responsibility for any additional costs including storage. transportation. or repair after the close of the auction. Whereas I am happy to store the car in excess of 30 days from auction end. a cost of $35 per day shall apply beyond 30 days of auction end. Also. you must remember that this is a classic +/-35 year old vehicle. and while it is up to you. I do not recommend that you just “hop in and drive it across the country”.   At least. I have never done that.   I have always professionally transported the cars in enclosed carriers from where I bought them to my home.    

PLEASE; IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO ABIDE BY THESE TERMS. nbsp;DO NOT BID AS. RESPECTFULLY. THERE CAN BE NO EXCEPTIONS.
