Momentarily, the highest current bid has only gone up to $32k. And there’s plenty of time to go haywire with the auction since there are four more days on the clock.
We could go on and on about what makes this Firebird Trans Am Special Edition so great (like the shaker hood, among others), but the truth is that everyone will try to add this to the fleet thanks to the Smokey connection. This is also reported to be the option package on the car from Smokey III. Moving inside there’s air conditioning, powered windows, and more gold accents – which may or may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but they’re so “1980s” that we just can’t help but love them. The Recaro Trans Am S/E (or RPO Y84) was an upmarket version that boasted Recaro brand bucket seats and a black and gold paint job in the style of earlier Bandit cars. Other goodies worth mentioning are the gold body graphics, 15″ gold-accented snowflake wheels, removable roof panels, or a Flowmaster exhaust system. The good news is that we are dealing with the latter variety, thanks to the W72 performance package. The highlights include the 400ci (6.6-liter) V8 engine that was good for either 180 or 200 horsepower back in the day.
The black trans am in smokey and the bandit series#
There’s a clean New York title attached to the sale, which still has a few more days to go crazy among fans of the series (both the movies and the Firebird). According to the description from Bring a Trailer seller PCS61, this 1977 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Special Edition was born as a Y82 Hurst Hatch unit that was painted Starlight Black over a matching black cloth upholstery interior. He later drove the Turbo model for “Smokey and the Bandit II,” but we all know that sequels rarely lived up to the original’s reputation.Īnyways, here’s a cool chance to own something that will make both Trans Am and Smokey fans very jealous. A major second-generation Firebird Trans Am revamp occurred that same year, but it might have gone unnoticed across popular culture if the year’s special edition didn’t feature alongside Burt Reynolds. It was the Spirit of ’77 at the New York International Auto Show, where Trans Am Depot showed off its limited run of 77 Burt Reynolds-signed modern replicas of the unforgettable black-and.
