Firebird

Remember that little movie, Smokey and the Bandit? The real star was the 1977 Trans Am, more specifically, the black and gold Bandit/Special edition.

1970 marked the second-generation of the Firebird.

Many changes were made to the ’69 Firebird over the last year, even though GM was planning a full restyle in 1970 for the Camaro and Firebird.

After a short first year, the 1968 Firebird continued to revel in its success, and with Pontiac’s, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” approach, not much was changed for the new year.

Pontiac ushered in a new sports car in 1967-the Firebird.

The 1979 Firebird was the most popular in its history with 211,453 sold, a record that would never be broken by any other Firebird.
