No Reserve: 1984 Pontiac Trans Am 5-Speed

This 1984 Pontiac Trans Am shows 82k miles and was acquired by the seller in 2017 from the brother of the original owner. The 5.0 liter High Output L69 V8 is backed by a factory 5-speed manual transmission and remains unmodified apart from the installation of an aftermarket exhaust. Recent maintenance records document a new radiator, new fuel pumps, hoses, new KYB shocks, and a new battery. This Trans Am is now offered at no reserve with a clean Carfax and clear Michigan title in the seller’s name.

The Spectra Red finish is believed by the seller to be the factory finish, and detailed photos highlight the condition of the body and paintwork, including a noted ding along the corner of the driver-side front panel. A set of 16″ OEM wheels replace the factory 15″ set included in the sale and are fitted with new BF Goodrich G-Force tires. New KYB front and rear shocks have recently been installed, and the car could benefit from new bushings according to the seller.
