1978 Trans AM SE, Y82, W72 TA 6.6, 400ci 4 Speed, Only 53,752 Miles, 1 of 489
Stock Number: 2086 - This 1978 Trans Am is a remarkable survivor, boasting only 53,752 miles. It comes equipped with some of the most sought-after features and was originally sold at Hamilton Pontiac and Cadillac in Hagerstown, MD. As a true survivor, it retains its original paint and interior in excellent condition. The engine and transmission are both in fantastic shape, thanks to the low mileage. Only 489 units were built in this exact configuration, making it a rare find.
It features factory-installed Hurst T-Tops and the highly desirable, numbers-matching W72 high-output Pontiac 400 V8, paired with a Borg Warner Super T-10 4-speed transmission. The Bandit himself would have surely been proud to cruise in this Black and Gold Y82 Special Edition masterpiece.
The exterior is finished in Code 19, Starlite Black, while the interior is the desirable Code 19R in black. The car runs strong, drives beautifully, and remains a striking sight to behold. With all the best options, this quality Trans Am is a true collectible that will retain its value in any market.
