Well, didn't want to...but here I go. 1968 Pontiac Firebird, PHS documented, 350, auto, blue on blue, beautiful original kept car and has been in the same family since new until I bought it 4 years ago. Solid car, approx. 106k original miles, straight panels and good chrome. This is a rare opportunity if you value an unmolested car. It runs and drives fabulous and will get you lots of thumbs ups. The top end on the original engine was rebuilt over 20 years ago and runs like a clock and the car has had only 1 repaint of the original color. As you can see from the pictures all body parts have the factory appearance fit and look really good for a 47 year old car. The interior is completely original, there are no cracks in the dash, headliner is excellent and seats are like new except for the driver's seat, which has a small rip ~2 inch. The car also came with A/C and console clock (needs to be looked at). The power steering works flawlessly and the brakes, water pump and battery are new. The original style single exhaust was retained and can easily be upgraded to a dual to open up the V8 rumble even more. There's no rust in the trunk or the under carriage. Being mostly original it could use some door weather strips and new vinyl top. Overall here you have a rare opportunity to own a solid original driver. Hate to see it go, but getting to old for sports cars. I am asking $19,975 and have it priced to sell. Will be more than happy to help with transporter and supervise loading, etc. For more pictures, questions call 7604439267 or PM me. Thanks!

Still for sale. Just changed oil, fresh tune up. This car has 20psi of vacuum which indicates a strong and healthy engine. Dropping price to $19,000, this is an awesome driver! Contact me with questions.

Very nice car, I hope whoever gets it takes care of it and doesn't molest it to much!!! well worth it IMO, kinda scares me that you aren't getting some bites at that price. Especially for original car.

Yeah, I know. I'm thinking twice selling it for $19k and probably won't do it. Kinda reminds me of the 80s when I had a red/red 400 car w/ hood tach and couldn't get $3500 for it. It takes the right person to value such a rare bird than hasn't been all molested and cut up replacing panels and such. I have a guy interested in Switzerland but prefer selling it to someone here. So, if anyone want to make me an offer over $19k let me know. You won't regret it, and remember an originally kept car is most of the time worth more than a moded car and will retain it's value. You could add a nice dual exhaust to this ride, bring out the V8 rumble even more, upgrade the rims and you'll have an eye catcher while you keep you ride original.
