One Crazy Restomod: A 1981 Pontiac Trans Am With 1300 Horsepower

February 18, 2019

The exterior features a “6.9” Firebird decal in a bright red, and its forgeline wheels have been color-matched, contrasting with its oh-so retro white body color. The interior is gorgeous too, looking like it just came out of a classic race car, with the Trans Am’s incredible black bucket seats and a ratchet shifter the main highlights.

Since it was completed in 2013, the car has been featured in numerous magazines including Car Craft, won multiple prizes, and was featured on PowerNation TV. All told, $160,000 is not a bad price for this car. If I had that sort of money, you can bet your bottom dollar that I would have tried to snap this beauty up.
