1979 PONTIAC TRANS AM...455 ENGINE VIN: 2W87K9N152463TITLE: Clear Ohio title in hand. For your consideration I have for sale a real Muscle Car, this 1979 Trans Am has a 455 cubic inch engine and its strong. The 455 engine has been built with lots of goodies like Edelbrock heads, Eagle rods and a big old dual line, dual pumper Holley carburetor. The body is very solid, but the paint is old and weak. The mechanical is good, even the interior dome light works. The window sticker comes with the car, it was born with a 400 engine. My contact information is near the bottom of the listing!!!! PLEASE HERE THIS: This is a Muscle Car, the engine is not original, its a 455 cubic inch built for power. It has a looping cam, big heads, headers, big exhaust pipes and Flow Master mufflers. It is very drivable, but its not the same as came from Pontiac. The body is very solid, but the paint is weak, the bird decals are the originals. BEST THINGS ABOUT THE CAR: The body is great, no rust issues that I see, the underside is solid, the engine runs like a demon, the transmission shifts good, the gauges work, the tires are good. WORST THING ABOUT THE CAR: The AC needs work, the parts from the firewall back are gone, the paint is old and weak. I think the big Holley carburetor is too big, it does run good "fast", but a smaller one would be better for normal cruising.

The rest of the information is boring unless you are really interested in buying the vehicle, its just buying details like shipping, paperwork, who I am, where the car is located and how to pay and contact information. ENGINE: The car was born with a 400 engine it now has a very strong 455 cubic inch. The engine was built by Kramer & Kramer, they are performance builders from the Cincinnati, Ohio area. I have a receipt for part of the work, its for $4,700. The engine has aluminum Edelbrock heads, aluminum intake, the rods are by Eagle, the carburetor is a dual line Holley, the cam has a nice loop to it. the ignition is now has a MSD box, it is causing problems, I have a new high energy distributor order, should be here Monday. Its a good engine, but not the original. TRANSMISSION: Its a Turbo 350 3 speed automatic, it works good with no slip. Its suppose to be built stronger, but I have no documentation. EXHAUST: Full tube headers (not coated), big pipes, the mufflers look like Flow Master to me. The exhaust sounds just right to me, it has the deep/loud Muscle Car Sound. REAREND: It a 10 bolt with no grinds or growls, I have not checked the ratio, but its a good highway gearing, it not real low. INTERIOR: Good interior, the headliner is good, the carpet and seat look good, the front seats look like they have been redone. 1 little crack on the dash and 1 rear seat area ash try cover missing, the package tray area is faded.
