It’s up at a price $49,900.

This car was not only low in production, but it also had unique exterior finishes and an interior that is one-of-a kind. To match the vehicle’s overall aesthetic, the iconic “Screaming chicken” hood was given red and black details. The “Official Pace Car of the Daytona 500″, livery was applied to the door sills. At the rear, the logo of the ” Nascar ” is affixed. Both were added to honor the Trans Am’s 1979 historic pacing.

The engine has only 3,072 miles, and most parts, including the interior leather and exterior paint, are original. This handsome piece of history should be a great addition to any muscle car collection.
