2001 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Out of a combination of a lifelong automotive passion and an unyielding desire to support the people of his Alabama community, the Generous Collection was born. Mr. Greg Rusk, a successful business leader in the cardboard industry, with a big heart for helping families and friends in times of need, would regularly pay overly generous fees to acquire an interesting vehicle. After decades of collecting and supporting local automotive enthusiasts, the Rusk family is ready for these vehicles, each with their own story, to write their next chapter back on the road, where they belong.

The Generous Collection returns with Part 2 offering over 250 cars in August all offered without reserve, emerging from years of long-term silent storage. From the quiet shadows of the Generous Collection to the sunshine of backroads and highways, enthusiasts now have the opportunity to own a piece of a generous car-collecting legacy.

By 2001, the Firebird was nearing the end of its storied run, and Pontiac made sure the final chapters counted. The Trans Am WS6 package stands as one of the finest expressions of American muscle from that era. Under the hood sat a 5.7-liter LS1 V8 producing 325 horsepower, paired with a cold-air induction system, larger throttle body, and free-flowing exhaust that gave the car a genuinely aggressive character. The car's 0-60 mph times dipped into the low five-second range, numbers that rivaled cars costing far more.
