1975 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Restomod

This 1975 Pontiac Trans Am Restomod is a stunning marriage of iconic Second-Generation styling and thoroughly modern GM performance—the kind of car that stops conversations at any show or auction. Finished in a striking fresh red over a bold red-on-red interior, it wears its Trans Am heritage with pride, right down to that unmistakable dash grab handle and screaming-chicken hood treatment. And here’s the detail true enthusiasts will appreciate: the legendary hood bird and the “T/A LS3” callout are genuine hand-airbrushed artwork laid beneath the clear coat—not decals. Run your hand across the hood and you’ll feel nothing but glass-smooth paint. Beneath that gorgeous sheetmetal sits a factory-engineered GM Connect & Cruise driveline built around the E-ROD LS3 crate engine, delivering 430 modern horsepower with the reliability and drivability that make this a car you’ll actually want to drive. For the collector who craves period-correct presence paired with confident, contemporary performance, this beautifully executed Trans Am is ready to reward you mile after mile.
