It is a lot of fun I think.
You could just go to the Edelbrock show and walk around and look, not take the Bird.

too bad you guys are more north than me. I am in San Diego.. thinking I am gonna sell my 67...
I ran into a few here in oceanside.. there is a Marine with a black primer 68 350.. and a old man in a 68 thats all junk...
1967 firebird A.I.R. 400 or California-emissions Firebird 400 four-speed hardtop. It also came with dual factory traction bars or safe-T- track rear axle, 10 bolt posi, front power disc brakes, PS, a Muncie 4 speed, Console, Dual exhaust, dual horns, and Soft Ray Glass windshield. Red on Red car... and a hood tach, rally gauge cluster... Maybe for sale??? Its sitting in MO and I am now in CA. Anyone want to haul it my way? PM me.
1220 of them were “(WU)” 400 A.I.R. 4 barrel manual transmissions. (Engine codes in parenthesis are for cars built with AIR Injector Exhaust Control, code 616. This was an emissions reduction modification performed on the heads. They were cast with an air injection passage to reduce emissions. They were installed on Firebirds manufactured for sale in California only).
It has a 24 339 code for the dealer on it from PHS... It was from Peninsula Pontiac, 2909 Pacific Coast Highway, Torrence, CA 90505

Ok There has been a few of us talking on a for sale thread. I thought I would start this one up again, since it has been 2 years since the last post. As I stated on the other post. I am on a Nova Site also. We do a lot of stuff on there. We have a PCH Cruise in the works for around May 22 in Huntington Beach area. The Nova group is hosting the July 31st John Force Car Show in Yorba Linda. We don't limit it to just Nova's. All cars are welcome. They don't mind me with my Bird. Here is a couple of video's of the cruise we did last month to CPP. We had around 70 Nova's cruising with a few other cars. In Part Two you can see me doing a burnout in my Firebird If any one is interested in joining us let me know and I will post up more details Part One http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6frnBMx78ik Part Two http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_VPgAL_Gt8

You guys are a little far out for me for a typical cruise but we can still all post our So Cal events here in case anyone from either area wants to make the drive on occasion. I occasionally make a bit of a distance drive, but its usually more for shows. Otherwise, I try to keep it in the 30 mile range for cruising purposes. Anyway, I know you said you dont do Pontiac shows, but figured I would post the link of the POCI show that is coming up just in case any other So Cal people plan on attending. My buddy and I are about 90% sure we will be going with our 67 verts. Would love to meet some other FGF owners as well. Here is the link to the show: http://www.4mypontiac.com/SCC-Fuddrucker-Show.htmIts a bit of a haul for us (71 miles each way), but we think we will be trying to make the trek for this one...

Well it looks like it has been over a year since anyone posted here! It would be nice to maybe start a thread and find as many of the so cal guys with birds as we can. even if we do not have cars ready maybe we can set a day to meet, maybe at Cars and Coffee in Irvine on a Saturday morning and swap Bird stories, talk about our experiences and maybe work some parts deals
Its a nice venue and lots to see in the mornings!1
