LS2-Powered 1978 Pontiac Trans Am on 24-Inch Forgiato Wheels

This 1978 Pontiac Trans Am has been transformed into a striking restomod with a Corvette-sourced LS2 engine swap. The LS2 delivers 400 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque, significantly improving the performance over the original engine. Aesthetically, it features a blacked-out exterior contrasted by vibrant red leather interiors and Camaro parts, including a modern infotainment system and digital cluster. Distinctive 24-inch Forgiato wheels add to its visual appeal. The Trans Am embodies the spirit of 'Smokey and the Bandit' with modern style and performance.
