1981 Pontiac Trans Am - Potent Pontiac Potential

The '81 SE T/A Was A Great Chassis And Body In Search Of Horsepower-This One Found It With A 505ci IA II EngineAs you would expect, by the '81 model year, Pontiac had the Second-Gen styling, suspension, and brakes dialed in. The WS6 was the cream of the auto-industry's handling crop, and with a 1.25-inch sway bar up front paired with a 0.750-inch bar in the rear, 14:1 constant-ratio high-effort steering, specific springs, bushings, and shocks, and four-wheel disc brakes, even like-era Corvette owners had to take notice of the Pontiac's handling prowess.inline_mediumwraptextrightThe hood bird is from an '80 Trans Am because owner Gary Firch liked the fact that it had more colors than the '81. You may have noticed that a torrential rainstorm arrived as we began the photo shoot. We kept shooting anyway.26479292/features/hppp_1004_1981_pontiac_trans_amhppp_1004_01_z+1981 _pontiac_trans_am+1980_trans_am_hood.jpgTrue
