My name is Jon Orr from Australia who currently owns a 1968 hard top aegena blue coupe firebird that took 2nd place at the pontiac nationals, here in Australia a few years ago.I have a real passion for these early firebirds.
I was hoping someone might know of, or be able to recommend a 1968 firebird 400,4 speed, convertible, preferbly H.O,with original rust free sheet metal, must be documented numbers matching and still painted in its original body tag paint code color in excellent condition.
Color is important, my preferences are turquoise, blue's, burgundy and nightshade green. I dont mind doing work as long as the paint work and body are in excellent condition.

I was looking to spend around the 30k mark, I'd appreciate any information you could send my way
Contact me through my email : jonkarenorr@hotmail.com
Cheers Jon

We have a couple in Florida and I think they are originally from AUS and they had 2 vert 68's. Not sure of the status but I sent them an email to see.

U.S firebird enthusiasts. Down under Australia, still seeking 400 firebird, manual, convertible.Are there any other sites or channels to source the car I have decribed?

cheers Jon

Jon, you might check PY (Performance Years) they have a first gen section and quite a few Aussies on the site!
Maybe you can find one down there??!

I could get you a 68 vert project car that is numbers matching with aegena blue & parchment interior. Needs sheet metal though and it's an automatic.

hi, thanks Bjorn i appreciate any advice

Hi Gus68, I also appreciate the offer but I am looking for a firbird that doesnt need any panel or paint work and am willing to outlay more money to find a car that doesnt need alot of work as I already have an Australian car (factory chev powered 327 monaro built by GMH in 1968) that is in the middle of a rotisserie restoration.


thanks Jon

Jon, I posted a link to the PY up abv....in my first reply

In Oldsmar? I bought the red 68 They had a blue one as well...but now 5 months have passed...

Did you buy their red one? Was it what you expected. Sure looks good from the picks!

PM sent. Thanks!
