Phoenixls , Your car isn't a 1979 model . The '79's were the last of the rear wheel drive units . They went to the FWD in 1980 so your car is at least a 1980 model . The car was produced till 1984 before being replaced the following year ( 1985 ) with the Grand Am . I owned a 1979 Phoenix at one time - was a fine car ! Your car looks to be in excellent shape . The trouble with determining value is very subjective ! To an average Joe , a 1980 Phoenix is just an old car , not worth much . But to a Phoenix fanatic , it would be a jewel ! Try doing a Google search for " Pontiac Phoenix forums " or " Pontiac forums " and see what comes up ? Most forums offer a classified section and some member might want that car badly . Also might try going to
www.hemmings.com and placing you inquiry as to value there . Good luck !
