1967 Pontiac Firebird 400 4-speed Project Car on 2040-cars

Up for auction is an original 1967 Pontiac Firebird 400 4-speed project car. This is an original California car that was purchased new in the Salinas area and has been off the road since 1977. It has remained in California its entire life. The original 400 motor and Muncie 4-speed are no longer with the car. It now has a non-original 1967 Firebird 326 and automatic transmission that goes with the car. The 3.36 dual traction bar rear axle is original, but the previous owner had it narrowed two inches. The car was disassembled and the outside of the body was sanded to bare metal, then left in a garage. It does not run or drive, but does roll. It would make a great project for someone who wants to either restore the car, or build a hot rod/race car.

The PHS documentation verifies this car is a true 400 4-speed car originally equipped with power steering, power drum brakes, remote control right side mirror, custom seat belts, rally gauge cluster & hood mounted tachometer, vanity mirror, wire wheel covers, electric clock, soft ray tinted windshield and E70-14 red stripe wide oval tires. The original exterior color is Signet Gold with a cream vinyl top and gold custom bucket seat interior.

The body retains its solid rust free original floors and trunk pan. The car has some rust in the rear window area that is typical of vinyl top cars (see photos). The passenger side quarter panel has some very small rust holes at the bottom and will probably need a lower patch panel. The rear tail panel is damaged and will need replacing. The front windshield area is solid but does have one small area at the base of the dashboard that will need a patch. The body also has some dents and the driver’s side quarter panel has some holes drilled that were used to pull previous dents. Included with the car are a new in the box rear window to trunk panel, driver’s side door skin, trunk lid and a rear tail panel. Also the previous owner cut out a portion of the subframe around the upper shock mount area, so the subframe will need to be replaced.

Most of the parts that were removed from the car have been saved and are included with the car as well as some extra parts. Included are some valuable parts such as the original Muncie shifter, Harrison heavy duty radiator and 400 distributor. In addition the car comes with new in the box gold deluxe door panels, gold upholstery set and gold carpet set.

This 47 year old car is sold with no warranties expressed or implied. I have done my best to accurately describe this car. Please no emails about a buy-it-now price as I will not end the auction early. The car is available for inspection before the auction ends. The time to inspect the car is before the auction ends, not after you purchase the car. New eBay members with zero feedback should contact me before you bid.

Please only bid if you intend to purchase the car.

 I looked at the windshield area today and noticed a 1"x 1" rust hole at the top of the windshield opening that will need a patch. The rest of the area looks good and solid.
