This is because ALL the Birds were 1976 Model Trans Am's ( GASP!! I said it!)
I saw what looked like scrap heaps at Universal in 1978. There was also two or 3 promotional cars made. I think these were 77's. The original 4 were NOT Oldsmobile engine cars, even though they looked like it. I actually looked under the hood of 2 . One got a rocket for the bridge. had a roll cage in it .
in 85 there was a long row of '82's used in knight rider at the same location.

I was always told that all of the Pontiacs used in the filming were crushed at a junkyard in Jonesboro, GA at the conclusion of the filming. This was directed by PMD, due to liability reasons. Witnesses said that parts were stolen off the crushed heaps, so those parts still might exist to this day. It would be hard to prove that they were removed from said cars.

Also, the 6.6 Litre shaker callouts were also used on the base 180 HP Trans Ams in 1977, along with the Oldsmobirds.
