'69 firebirds never came with a 326, that was '67 only. Your car likely came with either a 350 or an inline six.
If the car currently runs and drives, 2500 is kind of a going rate. If the car and drivetrain is all in pieces, that is likely a bit high.
Posting pictures of the vehicle here would help a lot. You can also order "PHS" with the car's VIN number and have a printout of how your car was built. Go to PHS-online.com and check that out. You nedd to be very careful about rust. Any car that has major rear quarter rust and inner front well rust will likely have tons of additional rust. A lot of hidden nightmares can be found under a fresh coat of paint or primer.
