This black beauty looks like a true survivor, wearing a stunning restoration showing just the right amount of swagger. With a few tasteful upgrades, it remains an authentic and highly collectible example of the classic “Bandit” era Trans Am. Finished in its original factory black and gold theme, this 1981 model instantly captures the look and attitude that made these cars legendary.
Under the hood sits the original Pontiac 4.9-liter engine, paired with power steering, power brakes, factory air conditioning, and cruise control. The engine bay is clean and well presented, still showing its original patina, which adds to its authenticity and appeal.
The black and camel (gold) interior is nearly flawless and true to its roots, offering that unmistakable late-70s and early-80s Trans Am style. Comfortable and inviting, it is ready for both a good car show and Sunday cruising. A new 11-inch Alpine multimedia system has been installed, offering Bluetooth connectivity, GPS navigation, and modern entertainment while maintaining a clean, factory-inspired look.
The body and paint are exceptional for their age, rust-free, and extremely well cared for. The thin gold pinstripes that once covered the car have been carefully removed for a cleaner, more refined appearance. For purists, a new factory stripe kit is included should you wish to restore the full “Bandit” look, but most will agree that its current sleek, stripe-free presentation looks outstanding.
This Trans Am still rides on its original factory honeycomb gold wheels, which perfectly complement the black and gold color scheme and complete the classic appearance that made these cars so famous.
The underside is tidy and solid, showing the same well-preserved patina as the rest of the car. This Trans Am is not just for display. It is meant to be driven and enjoyed.
If you have been searching for a genuine, 1981 Trans Am that runs as good as it looks, this one deserves serious attention. It is a true collector-quality car that captures the spirit of one of the most iconic American performance legends. Appraised value of $78,000 CAD. Canadian tax is not applicable.
