Seller’s Description: This 1982 Firebird Trans Am is a well-preserved example of the third generation Firebird’s first model year. Delivered new to Don Miller Pontiac Subaru in Madison, this vehicle remained in Wisconsin for much of its life and spent a few years in California before I purchased it in 2018. The car is accompanied by its original owner’s manual, purchase documentation, major service receipts and a clean Virginia title.
The car features an overall exterior in red with black lower-body paint that, while showing some dings, chips and scratches from its 40 year life, is in remarkable condition. The paint is believed to be largely original, though this has not been verified with paint depth readings. Exterior options include a turbo bulge hood, 15″ turbo cast wheels with aero covers, rear wiper and washer, power antenna, T-tops, and locking gas door.
The charcoal interior presents well with very little wear. Apart from an amateur repair to a crack in the original-style dashboard, the interior is intact with no missing or broken trim or tears in the optional Viscount “PMD” seats. The headliner has been recently replaced with correct material and fitment. Gauges are all operational as are all power features. The radio and power antenna function, however the cassette player is inoperable. The car has A/C, but it is not currently operating.
This highly optioned Trans Am is powered by a then top-of-the-line Crossfire injection 5.0 Liter 305 V8 with cowl induction. The transmission is the correct for the year 3-speed TH200C. Both engine and transmission function well with no running issues.
The car features 15″ Turbo cast wheels with factory aero covers. Tires are 235/60R15 BF Goodrich Radial T/As showing date codes from the early 2000’s. Tires are in OK condition with lots of tread. Braking is provided by factory front disc brakes with drum brakes on the rear axle. Soft brake lines were replaced in early 2023 and a brake fluid flush was performed. Car has good pedal and stopping with good rotor and pad life remaining. I have verified that this car has the WS7 uprated suspension package.
The odometer currently shows just under 44,000 miles which appears to be correct based on the condition of the car, but the vehicle has had an NAM title in the past for an unknown reason. Mileage will go up slightly due to occasional pleasure drives during sale.
This is a highly original 1982 Pontiac Trans Am in a terrific color combination. While it wears evidence of its 44,000 miles driven, it presents beautifully and turns heads on the road wherever it goes due to its rarity and condition.
