Another beautiful Basil Classic... a 1978 Pontiac Firebird with only 44,770 miles that has been handpicked and meets Joe Basil's standards of excellence and tradition of fine automobiles since 1951. This vehicle is truly one of a kind and one of the cleanest, most well taken care of, showroom condition Pontiac Firebird's that you will find! Buy with confidence!! This Pontiac Firebird is finished in a Martinique Blue exterior paint paired with nostalgic Firebird decals. Powered by a 400 Cubic Inch V8 engine paired to a 3-speed automatic transmission to produce 180HP. Changes for 1978 were slight, with a switch from a honeycomb to a crosshatch pattern grille being the most notable change to the body style. The 1977 Trans Am Y82 Special Edition gained significant fame after its film debut in Smokey and the Bandit, leading to a drastic increase in sales of the Pontiac Firebird in the following years, and its current day collectability. This car has been upgraded with a newer style radio head unit as well as a functional rear back-up camera. These Firebirds are extremely desirable, especially in this color because it was a 1-year production color. This car is in amazing condition and all it needs is a new owner! Just look and you can tell that this vehicle was very well cared for by its owners and kept in show condition! When you drive this vehicle, it has the feel that you're looking for...runs and drives just like new! This is a no excuse vehicle. This car will make a fine collector's piece for you and your family for years to come! Instead of looking at your dream car, drive it. We take trades and have financing available.
