Pontiac Firebird (Second generation)

This topic is for voting on variants of this model other than the 1973 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am SD-455 and 1977 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am already featured in FH5.

1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am 10th Anniversary. We have the 1977 trans am but that has a different front and rear clip than the 1979, and this would be cool to have! Couldnt find a topic to vote for the 1979 trans am though to vote for this. If you want to see what it looks like feel free to look it up. My dad owned one with the 403ci and th350.

We already have the Trans Am versions, but the Formula deserves to have a spot in the game because it’s underrated in my opinion… :100:
