The 1978 Pontiac Trans Am, a pivotal year in its sales trajectory, continued the upward trend that had begun in the mid 1970s. Following the impressive sales figures of 1979, the Trans Am accounted for a significant portion of GM’s production.
With over 93,000 units sold, it dominated the Trans Am lineup, outselling the Esprit and Firebird models. The majority of Trans Ams produced in 1978 were equipped with automatic transmissions and the popular L78 400 engine.
The Trans Am featured in these photos also boasts an original 400ci engine that remains in excellent condition. The car’s appeal has sparked intense bidding on eBay, with numerous individuals vying for ownership.
