Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am 1983

Gateway Classic Cars of Denver is proud to offer this 1983 Pontiac firebird Trans Am
The 3rd Generation of Firebirds consisted of three models: Firebird, Firebird S/E, and Firebird Trans Am. The Firebird was the base model, equivalent to the Camaro Sport Coupe; the Firebird S/E was the luxury version; and the Trans Am, the high-performance version. For 1982, the new Firebird and Camaro had been completely restyled, with the windshield slope set at a dramatic, more aerodynamic 62 degrees,[4] (about 3 degrees steeper than anything GM had ever tried before), flush mounted side glass, and for the first time, a large, glass-dominated rear hatchback. Electronically controlled retractable headlamps, and a rounded hood line and front fenders were the primary characteristics that distinguished the Firebird from its Camaro sibling and its previous Firebird incarnations. The Firebird would retain hidden headlamps until the end of all production in 2002. Pontiac had also hoped to drop the “Trans Am” moniker from the redesigned cars to save royalties paid to the SCCA for use of the name. Early promotional cars were marked “T/A” as an alternative, however it was decided that doing so might cause more problems than it was worth and the “Trans Am” nameplate remained. Still, with its dimensions reduced, wheelbase shortened, and weight reduced, the Third Generation Firebird was also the closest yet in size to the original 1967 model. It won “Best Sports GT” category in the $11,000 to $14,000 range (also along with the Camaro). Road & Track called the fuel-injected Trans Am “a dramatic improvement on its predecessors,” accelerating from 0-60 in 9.2 seconds.[5]

This clean CarFax T/A is ready to cruise down the road. The custom wheels really set the silver paint off and should turn a lot of heads. Additional options include: A/C, Power Steering, Power Brakes, Power Windows, AM/FM Cassette player, ABS, Seat belts, Radial Tires.
