Muscle Car Of The Week Video #23: 1979 Pontiac Trans Am 10th Anniversary Edition

[V8TV]

1979 marked the 10th anniversary of the Pontiac Trans Am. In this episode, we spotlight a 1979 10th Anniversary Trans Am from the Brothers Collection that shows a mere 111 miles on the odometer! This one features the Pontiac 400 V8 and four-speed transmission, and is the very same car owned by Pontiac advertising executive Jim Wangers and featured in the movie "Joe Dirt". Although some consider this car to be overdone with its five color hood bird, two-tone paint, & silver interior, we really like the styling of this 1 of 1817 made Anniversary edition.

Iconic car for sure, heightened IMO by the era it was produced in, and Pontiac did a great job making sure it was not a car you could ignore...I remember it well.

Thanks to the Brothers, Kevin & V8TV crew for all these vids.
