Mileage as of this date is original 24,403 Kilometers ( 15,130 miles ) Yes. A very nice, very gorgeous low mile 1979 Trans Am.
This car was built in Norwood, Ohio and sent to Canada when new. What is the difference between a Canada and US Trans Am in 1979?
The Speedometer and Odometer are calibrated in KM per hour rather than MILES per hour.
There are MILES per hour though on the Speedometer. You can change this quite easily if you wanted to but I would leave it. You can tell how fast you are going on the speedometer in miles per hour on the gauge as well so you are not going to be getting any speeding tickets.
Yes. All of my cars are numbers matching with original drive trains. Including this one.
Purchased from the original owner. Heather Skippen of nearby London, Ontario.
Heather bought this fine car brand new from the originating GM dealer ( Huron Motor Products of Zurich Ontario ) back in the spring of 1979.
The original build sheet and GM Historical docs are in another file here on the www.birdbunker.com website.
Super clean car. Well cared for. The 1979 paint was kind of crappy and just too tired to save. What is it with this 79 paint? Must have been the worst year GM had for paint? Anyhow, the big orange and red bird was cracked when acquired. In that state, the appearance was a major distraction to the car. It was the state of the big orange and red bird that required a hood repaint to attach a new bird. Just the like the hood repaint on the 1976 White car I have, there is no way then to match the rest of the car. Impossible. So, the car had to be painted entirely for it to look proper.
You know when it is time to leave a car alone and you know when it is the right time to paint a car. This car was better off painted.
The decision was made to repaint the car and reapply the original correct decals etc. and that was a smart move. The new paint and new decals on this car are simply amazing. The quality of the deep, rich black paint job like the other painted cars in the birdbunker is simply amongst the very best paint jobs there are.
The black, the orange \ red decals and the bright argent snowflake wheels gets a ton of attention when moving around town. Gorgeous looking car.
This car originally came with Rally II’s but was changed to the Silver Snowflakes for bling appeal. You could always go back to Rally II’s if you wanted to. The argent silver snow flake wheels look simply fantastic and they are correct for 1979 Trans Am wheel options.
.
What is nicest about this car is that it drives, smells, looks, handles, and sounds just like it should in 1979 with about 16,000 miles on it.
This car needs nothing other than to be cleaned, loved and driven. It is that nice.....
A strong running car that looks great and will go anywhere. Like a trip back in time.
Yes. I know that this car is a 403 Olds and not the 400 Pontiac.
Yes. I know that your 400 4-Speed car is worth more money. Many people tell me so.
So what do you get when you buy this car?
a.) you get a complete numbers matching, low mile 1979 Black on Black Trans Am painted back to original factory colour and decals.
b.) You get a car with not just a nice new paint job... you get a car with an astounding paint job and decals professionally applied.
c.) You get fairly new rubber plus 4 perfectly done snowflake rims, plus the correct Stainless caps and snowflake lug nuts. Not the cheap plastic ones that went on the 79 10th Anniversary that year.
