UP FOR AUCTION IS A 1969 FIREBIRD CONVERTIBLE WITH A NON-MATCHING NUMBERS 400CI-V8 ENGINE FROM A 1972 PONTIAC
I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN JULY 2005 WITH 31,200 MILES. TODAY, HE CAR HAS JUST UNDER 39,000 MILES.
AT THE TIME I PURCHASED THIS CAR, T HAD JUST BEEN REPAINTED. ALL CHROME, NTERIOR AND CARPET HAD JUST BEEN REPLACED AS WELL. THE MATADOR RED PAINT, VORY WHITE TOP AND PARCHMENT VINYL INTERIOR ARE ALL THE CORRECT COLORS ACCORDING TO THE BODY TAG.
THIS CAR HAS BEEN GARAGE KEPT AND COVERED FOR THE ENTIRE TIME I HAVE OWNED IT. PROBABLY BEEN CAUGHT OUT IN THE RAIN ONLY TWICE IN THE LAST 10 YEARS.
EVERYTHING STILL LOOKS FANTASTIC. AS GOOD AS THE PICTURES MAY LOOK; THEY DON’T DO THIS CLASSIC VEHICLE JUSTICE. THIS CAR TURNS HEADS WHEREEVER IT GOES.
I HAVE PUT MONEY AND IMPROVEMENTS INTO THIS VEHICLE OVER THE YEARS…

THE MOTOR RUNS EXCELLENT AND WITH THE TKO-600 TRANSMISSION IN PLACE, F YOU NEVER WANTED…UP TO A 650HP MOTOR COULD BE INSTALLED WITHOUT ANY CONCERN FOR THE TRANSMISSION.
IN 2009, HAD THE MSD ELECTRONIC IGNITION INSTALLED.
