1968 Pontiac Firebird

THIS CAR IS A PHS DOCUMENTED 1968 PONTIAC FIREBIRD 400 4 SPEED COUPE. COMES WITH THE ORIGINAL FACTORY BROADCAST BUILD SHEET. nbsp;PHS DOCUMENTATION. nbsp;PHS LAMINATED WINDOW STICKER AND A CLEAR PA TITLE. THE EXTERIOR IS AUTUMN BRONZE AND INTERIOR IS BLACK WITH A DELUXE OPTION. THAT BEING SAID IT IS NOT A MATCHING NUMBERS ENGINE (HAS A 1971 PONTIAC 400 ENGINE). THE CAR IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION AND IS A GREAT DRIVER BUT IS NOT A CONCOURS SHOW CAR . THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD THE QUATER PANELS. FLOOR PANS. TRUNK PAN. FENDERS AND ALL THE PAINT WORK DONE. THIS BODY WORK AND PAINT WERE DONE 7-10 YEARS AGO. THERE ARE SOME CHIPS IN THE PAINT AND THE FIT & FINISH ON THE BODY WORK IS NOT PERFECT. THIS CAR WOULD BE GREAT TO BRING TO CRUISE NIGHTS AND LOCAL SHOWS. THE CAR IS MECHANICALLY SOUND . STARTS RIGHT UP AND DRIVES GREAT.                                                                                                                                                                                    THE EXTERIOR :   THE PAINT IS NOT SHOW QUALITY BUT LOOKS GOOD (THERE ARE SOME CHIPS IN THE PAINT BUT NO DENTS). THE CHROME IS IN REALLY GOOD CONDITION (TRIM PIECE UNDER THE WINDSHIELD IS NOT ATTACHED PROPERLY). NEW FRONT SPOILER. WEATHER STRIPPING HAS BEEN REPLACED. RALLEY WHEELS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE. TIRES HAVE ALOT OF TREAD. ALL THE LIGHTS- SIDE MARKERS- TURN SIGNALS- HI/LOW BEAMS- HAZARDS- WORK AS THEY SHOULD.                                                                                                                THE INTERIOR :   BRAND NEW HEADLINER.

THE DASH & DOOR PANELS ARE ORIGINAL & IN GOOD SHAPE. BUT THERE IS A SMALL EPOXY REPAIR ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL ON THE DASH AND ON THE DRIVERS SIDE ARM REST. THERE ARE SOME SMALL SCRATCHES ON THE GLOVE BOX DOOR. nbsp;THE SIDE & REAR QUARTER GLASS GO UP AND DOWN WITH NO PROBLEMS. BLOWER & HEAT WORK FINE. WIPERS WORK FINE. nbsp;CARPET IS IN GOOD SHAPE.

THIS ENGINE SOUNDS GREAT AND JUST HAD A COMPLETE SERVICE (OIL- FILTER- PLUGS- WIRES-DISTRIBUTOR). nbsp;THE POINTS ON THE DISTRIBUTOR HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH A PERTRONIX IGNITOR (NO NEED TO REPLACE OR ADJUST THE POINTS EVER AGAIN). THE STEERING HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO POWER STEERING- NEW TIGHT RADIUS STEERING BOX-PUMP-HOSES-PULLYS-BRACKETS-HARWARE-PITMAN ARM-BELTS (KEPT ALL MANUAL STEERING COMPONENTS). nbsp;HOOKER LONG TUBE HEADERS.

THE CAR RUNS STRAIGHT AS AN ARROW & STEERING WHEEL LINES UP PERFECTLY. THE REAR BUSHINGS ARE STARTING TO CRACK AND WILL EVENTUALLY NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE FRONT BRAKES ARE FACTORY 4 PISTON DISC (COMPLETELY REBUILT WITH NEW PADS). THE REAR ARE DRUMS (REBUILT WITH NEW PADS). THE BRAKES STOP GREAT AND HAVE NO PROBLEMS.                                                                                 ACCORDING TO THE PAPERWORK I RECIEVED FROM THE PONTIAC HISTORIC SOCIETY THERE WERE ONLY 7553 FIREBIRD 400 4 SPEED CARS MADE IN 1968 AND WITH THE CUSTOM ORDERED AUTUM BRONZE EXTERIOR COLOR. nbsp;BRINGS THAT NUMBER EVEN LOWER. THIS CAR IN NOT A TRAILER QUEEN AND DESERVES TO BE DRIVEN AND ENJOYED. IF YOU WANT TO TURN THIS INTO SHOW CAR. IT WILL NOT NEED MUCH. THE CAR CAN BE DRIVEN AND ENJOYED JUST THE WAY IT IS. I HAVE EXTRA PARTS THAT COME WITH THE CAR AND ALSO SOME PARTS THAT WERE REPLACED. THE CAR CAN BE SEEN. nbsp;PLEASE FEEL FREE TO E-MAIL ME THROUGH EBAY OR CALL ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS.
