1981 Pontiac Firebird

• Dark blue metallic paint presents glossy and deep, with a large gold hood bird, gold side stripes and Trans Am lettering.
• Black and polished five-spoke wheels wear BFGoodrich Radial T/A white-letter tires and present clean.
• The camel tan cloth interior presents clean overall, with ribbed front buckets and a matching rear seat showing only light wear.
• The tan headliner presents intact with no sagging visible, and the door panels match the seats.
• The engine-turned dash panel presents bright, with stock gauges and an aftermarket Pioneer stereo fitted.
• Door-jamb stickers and a dash VIN plate are photographed, though the numbers are small in the set.
• No engine-bay photos in the set, so the engine and its condition can't be judged.
• No trunk or underside photos in the set, so the trunk floor, floors and frame can't be judged.

Money: At $36,900 the money buys a striking blue-and-gold Trans Am whose paint and tan interior present well on this evidence, with little cosmetic budgeting apparent, but the engine bay, trunk and underside are unphotographed and that unseen mechanical and structural side is what matters most at this price.
