This Jeep Gladiator Was Inspired By Smokey And The Bandit’s Pontiac Trans Am

A special 2020 Jeep Gladiator known as the Bandit Outlaw Edition is heading to auction later this month thanks to Barrett-Jackson.

Limited details about this eye-catching Gladiator are available but it is thought to be number 10 of just a handful of Bandit Outlaw Editions created by an unknown builder. It takes obvious design inspiration from the Pontiac Trans Am and has undergone a host of modifications.

Immediately making this Gladiator stand out from all others is the unique color scheme that consists of gloss black paint accented by bronze-colored features across the front bumper, grille, sides, and tailgate. The pickup also features the Trans Am’s iconic ‘Screaming Chicken’ decal on the hood.

This Gladiator is based on the High Altitude variant and has also undergone a handful of other modifications. For example, it features a 3.5-inch Rough Country lift and rolls on a set of black and bronze wheels wrapped in 38-inch mud-terrain tires to make it even more capable off-road.

A multitude of alterations have also been made to the interior of the truck. For example, it features a bright orange accents and sports Bandit motifs on each of the headrests, while it also has a special model designation on the dashboard.

The listing confirms that the pickup has been driven 5,121 miles (8,241 km) and will be offered with no reserve. How much will it go for? It’s hard to say but we’d expect it to sell for a premium over a standard Gladiator High Altitude.
