LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1977 Pontiac Trans Am “Bandit” SE
The 1977 Pontiac Trans Am Special Edition stands today as one of the most recognizable American performance icons—thanks in part to its starring role in Smokey and the Bandit. This spectacular Code Y82 Special Edition Bandit Trans Am has been treated to a no-expense-spared rotisserie restoration, returning it to its original factory configuration exactly as it left the Norwood assembly plant in January 1977. Finished in Code 19 Starlight Black with Code 19B Black Custom Cloth bucket seats, and powered by its matching-numbers W72 400ci V8, this SE represents the pinnacle of Trans Am desirability. Complete PHS documentation, GM factory paperwork, and the original owner’s manual accompany the car, further validating its authenticity and provenance.
As a true Special Edition Bandit, the Trans Am features the iconic black-and-gold theme made famous on screen. Blacked-out glass trim, a gold “Screaming Chicken” hood decal, factory Hurst T-tops (RPO CCI), gold-accented snowflake wheels, and matching gold interior accents all come together to create one of Pontiac’s most memorable designs. The Shaker hood proudly displays “T/A 6.6” lettering, hinting at the Pontiac-built 6.6L W72 V8 beneath. Factory equipment includes a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, and Pontiac’s “rally-tuned” suspension for enhanced handling performance.
Inside, gold-accented spokes on the sport steering wheel, gold trim across the instrument panel, and the full Rally gauge cluster emphasize the SE’s premium and performance-oriented character. Factory air conditioning blows cold, and the cabin features power windows and an AM/FM stereo radio just as it did when new.
The rotisserie restoration is exceptional throughout, displaying meticulous attention to detail from top to bottom. The chassis and undercarriage are beautifully finished with the correct red oxide primer, and the original 15x7-inch aluminum Snowflake wheels have been professionally restored. Every detail reflects authenticity and craftsmanship, making this Y82 SE one of the finest restored examples available.
Perfectly presented, fully documented, and restored to its exacting factory specifications, this 1977 Trans Am SE captures the very essence of Pontiac’s most celebrated performance icon.
