Reserve. But don't let that scare you, he's eager to sell.
I'm selling this for a friend of mine. He bought this from the second owner of the car.
The original buyer got the car after returning home from Viet Nam.
As far as we know, the car has never left Virginia.
Now here's the good part. He has a complete, rust-free front clip for the car including the bumper/grille/lights. Also has a spare rear window, rear bumper and some other odds and ends.
IF the car reaches $5,000 in bidding ALL the spares WILL be included!
As you can see, it has rust issues. No surprise as old as it is. What surprises me is the tires still hold air. He bought it about ten years ago with the intent of restoring it which is why he has accumulated so many original spare parts.
The engine is a 350 with Quadrajet four barrel carb. It has headers on it, and no other exhaust. Looks like there might have been pipes coming out in front of the rear tires. The engine had not been run for at least three years before he bought it.
As you can see, it is clean inside the engine. It turns easily (but not too easily!) by turning the fan.
Also, to get to the engine's number, he pulled the lower radiator hose and the antifreeze inside it looks brand new. So no worries about anything having frozen and cracked.
The interior (I have lots more pictures of the car and spare parts) is surprisingly good. Back seat looks great. A little repair needed on the edge of the front seats. But you'll probably want to redo them.
It has a Hurst shifter. It has a 160 mph speedometer and firebirds etched(?) on the door glass by the mirrors. All are or were options, he thinks. Frankly, if I had the money, and space to do it, I'd buy the car!
It does take me back to my youth, I'm going on 58, so am one that would love to get something like this that I couldn't afford back then. Plus, what I did have, I sold. Kids, what was I thinking?
So why's he selling? He's had it so long and it never was a priority. He's 30 and wants to settle down and buy a house. So money from this and other stuff he's going to sell is going towards the down payment/closing costs.
Plus, he has a newer (82?) Firebird that is a total sleeper. It doesn't look a lot better than this one, but boy does it go! He's worried that selling this one is a mistake. I pointed to the other one and said, “Fix that one up after you get settled.” He liked that idea.
So please, help my friend out by buying his baby. It needs to be bought back to life and enjoyed as
The General intended in 1968.
