Hey, don't wanna post int he wrong forum again so I figured I'd ask in here. Is there a list of Ads somewhere for first gen firebirds? I recently bought some parts from a guy and he also had some "Autobuff" magazines which I also purcheased. I'd never heard of this magazine, but it featured some pretty wild Firebirds... and some topless women along with some really bad text. Anyway, I'm putting together a list of what months had Pontiacs in them, and I'd also like to know which issues (month/year) magazines featured 69 Firebirds.

At a flea market last week I bought a stack of "Saturday evening Post" magazines dated 67 and 68. This is a big magazine and has some very nice GM ads in it, some with Camaros and Firebirds together. I can compile a list eventually, but just wanted to know if one existed already and I could add to it. Thanks, Greg.

Put them in the Research Subforums: History.

Vikki has a collection of ad's and film clips at The First Gen Site. If they're not in Library, let her know.

That's unfortunate. Because I, for one, don't buy such magazines for the pictures but rather the articles.

I have a CD made by "HI-Tech Software" "Firebird ads from the beginning - 1967 - 2002" that features all (just about every one they could find I imagine) from the first ones all the way up the the new birds... you download it onto your computer and have a spreadsheet of all the ads, and can preview in thumbnails and open full size images from there... I also have the GTO version... "GTO Anthology" You can then print out any you want for display or what ever you need... Got them off Amazon.

It was cheap, and I thought pretty cool. Just FYI if anyone needs a specific ad etc...

Brett!

I haven't read these yet either and would like to read the really bad text....

I'm in for the bad text to.

Text? I only read the pictures!

Thanks Brett... I just ordered it. That's exactly what I was looking for. Regarding the Autobuff bad text, I read a story while I was tearing them up putting each type of car in a pile called "The killer Camaro". It was beyond stupid, had no point, was twisted with evil "hacker" story lines, but does have the 80's hot rod pro street race mentality. The magazine is pretty cool from.. ya know... a history perspective, as it switched from a topless only newsstand magazine to bikini's in 1986 because of the anti pron laws, and ended in 1987. I think these old pro street Pontiacs are cool and I never heard of this magazine growing up... just stumbeled across it when I bought some parts and looked at the guy's "other listings". There's two 69 Birds that aren't too hacked up, a few T/A's, and a 73 Grand Prix with a 427 rat, tubbed, wheelie bars, blower, crush blue interior and enough bling to blind you from 20 feet away. Funny... those cars were never reliable and weren't driven much.

Here are a couple samples. They even have multiple ads, using the same image, but different verbiage for the ads.



Like this one also with different verbiage such as Geoff posted above



Brett!
