1968 Pontiac Firebird

350 2bbl Automatic

I am selling my 1968 Pontaic Firebird.  I will try to describe the car in as much detail as possible (even the negative details) so please read carefully.  Because of differences in meaning for people, it's probably best to see the car for yourself first anyway.

This car has a clean MO title.  It is currently licensed and drive-able.  

The car runs really well.  It cold starts on its own, even in below freezing temperatures.  It drives well, and shifts well.  The 350 motor & transmission was rebuilt less than 2k miles ago.

The car is matching numbers.  All the interior (except for a couple of speakers that were added in the 80's) is original to the car.  It is currently missing passenger side carpet on the floor.  

It has been garage kept for the majority of its recent life, and I took it out for a drive only during appropriate weather.

The paint is original to the car.  

A skilled restorer can salvage all of the fenders on this car.

The lights and turn signals all work.  I purchased new turn signals which are also included with the car.

The exterior color is originally Primavera Beige, and the interior is the beautiful 60's Green-Gold color.

I have freshly painted Rally II Wheels with new rims that are being included with the car.

The bumper has been removed and is not currently attached, but that is also included with the car.

The engine has recently been repainted the original Pontiac Blue.

Now, on to the known issues:

The body has some rough patches.  No car is immune to rust, and that includes muscle cars.  The car has some rust in the normal areas that Firebirds and Camaros share.  There is only minor surface rust in the trunk (really minor) and the floors are solid and rust free.  The fender rust did spread to create a small hole in corner of the passenger side floor (see picture and note that the insulation put on the floorboards of cars is also brown.  The rust is localized to the hole and a small surrounding area.).

The front fenders have two minor dents near the headlights.

The gas gauge does not work.

The dash light is out (behind the speedometer, etc)

The A/C does not work.

When the brights are switched on, one of the standard lights stays on.


Overall this car would make a great restoration project or daily driver.  No mechanical work needs to be done to the vehicle.  I would encourage anyone legitimately interested in the car to see it for themselves if possible.  I have tried to explain all of the details of the car to the best of my ability to prevent any time from being wasted.  I would be happy to answer any questions.  Please also note that this vehicle is for sale locally, and therefore this ad can be cancelled at any time.  I feel like my asking price is fair, but I will entertain offers.  Everyone likes to feel like they're getting the best deal possible, so offer away.  I will only accept cash as the method of payment.

Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?

Wed, 07 Oct 2009

DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013


The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
