Pontiac Firebird Trans Am

The Pontiac Firebird in the image is likely a 1970-1973 model year based on its front end design. 

Vehicle Identification

  • Model: The car is a second-generation Pontiac Firebird, likely a Trans Am or Formula model, identified by features such as the functional hood scoops and rear spoiler.
  • Year Range: The specific front end with dual round headlights and a pointed nose design was used on models from 1970 to 1973.
  • Key Distinction: In 1974, the Firebird received a major styling update with a redesigned “shovel-nose” front end and new taillights, which visually distinguishes it from the earlier models. The car in the image does not have the 1974 or later front-end styling. The smooth, single B-pillar with the earlier style rear window suggests it may be a 1970–1974 model, before the wraparound rear window was introduced in 1975.
  • Modifications: The car is finished in a matte black paint and features aftermarket wheels, suggesting it is a restomod (restored and modified) project.
