Just as the title states. I'm in the market for a 68 bird. I would prefer a 400 and am not too worried about other options. Finding one in Texas would be nice, but I'm not sure what the chances are on that.

I really don't want to buy a car then have to send it straight to the paint shop. I'm looking for a nice driver.

Let me know what you have

Thanks!

Life would be a lot easier if I liked Camaros more than Firebirds. grin

Will take another 5k to get that one back to stock. And that doesn't include the paint. frown


I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.
I feel like I am diagonally parked in a parallel universe.

Do you know what he used as far as paint goes? PPG or some other brand?

Lefty,
Hi. I have your '68 Firebird Convertible. The car is on EBay right now. Here's the LINK:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/301158636207?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26_nkw%3D301158636207%26_rdc%3D1

Firebird is in New York but an Auto Shipper can bring it to you in Texas. I bought the bird in 2008 in Illinois for $33K and have it garaged continously. This is a rare '68 Firebird - rebuilt 350 c.i. engine (5000 miles) and a new power convertible top + body is perfect. The Ebay auction starting price is $20,000. Reserve Price is $25K. There are 28 people watching the auction which ends in 5 days. If you want the Firebird go on to Ebay and bid $25,000 and it's yours. If you want to come up to New York I can hold the Firebird if you can send a deposit of $2000. Email me at itquotes@aol.com for more photos. Call me at 1-631-334-5410 or 1-631-803-6748.
