Museum Grade - This 1980 Pontiac Turbo Trans Am Pace Car is truly a classic car! It has T-Tops, Special Pace Car Pkg, 4 Wheel Disc Brakes, Power Steering, Power Brakes, Power Windows, Power Locks and Air Conditioning. The car boasts a 4.9L (301ci) turbocharged V8 engine producing 210 hp and 310-345 lb-ft of torque, paired exclusively with a three-speed automatic transmission. This is a very rare engine as very very few factory motors made in the US have been V8 turbos.

This is an Absolutely Gorgeous Trans Am! The 1980 Indy 500 race choose the Turbo Trans Am to pace the race. This was the first year that the same car paced both the Indy 500 and the Daytona 500. Pontiac made 5,700 of these cars to replicate the car used to pace The Indianapolis 500. The Pace Car had white lower body paint with charcoal upper body paint offset by a tri-color body accent stripes. The decals used were now a larger 5-color turbo hood bird and "Turbo 4.9" on the bulge on the hood designed to accommodate the turbo-charger and 3-light system for the turbo-boost. The interior had custom Oyster seats with hobnail inserts and the bird was embroidered on the center of the rear seats and on the door panels. The rest of the interior was an Oyster white with charcoal grey dash and center console. A Special ETR AM/FM Cassette with seek-and-scan features, a digital display, and red dash lights rounded out the interior. The Indy 500 emblem was located on the side fenders and the rear tail spoilers. The optional "Indy 500 Pace Car" door decals were an extra option.

The cars original engine was rebuilt less than 300 miles ago! Rebuild was in June of 2017 and the car has been in a museum since.
