A raw, raucous, and beautiful muscle machine you already love this 1969 Pontiac Firebird before you saw the affordable price. And so when you find out that it has the powerful 400 V8, four-on-the-floor, and plenty of other great features, you might not even finish all the details before you're rushing down here.The key to this car's appeal is the first impression that it makes. First off, we all love the look of these first-generation Firebirds. The shining front bumper is so nicely integrated into the design as it both frames the grille and creates an apex for the crease on the aggressive dual scoop hood. The profile continues the sleek sheetmetal with nicely defined creases and sporty fender scallops. And It finishes with a full-length rear spoiler and those iconic thin taillights. But this one goes beyond just legendary style. Often muscle cars grab attention with a bold color like red or black. We love that look, but this one just does it in such a different way that makes it a shining star, literally. The silver paint has plenty of metal flake and modern cleracoat, so that when you take it out into the sunlight, it has a true radiating presence.When you open the door, you also can tell there was plenty invested on the interior, too. The inside was given a complete color change to the black we all love to see on muscle machines. So the seats, carpeting, door panels, headliner, dash, and everything else feels exceptionally fresh and complete. This is a comfortable center console car that is topped off with an auxiliary gauge trio and Hurst shifter. Like a good sports car, the driver's focus is on the deep dual-pod readouts viewed through the three-spoke sports steering wheel. Looking for a tach? This has one of Pontiac's ultra cool hood-mounted units. The top motor for the first-generation Firebird was the 400 cubic-inch V8, so it's great to have that correct displacement under the hood. The motor is presented exceptionally nicely with the correct blue on the block, and the air topper and valve covers boldly proclaim the big V8's size. It inhales deeply with a four-barrel carburetor and hi-rise intake, and exhales with authority out of an X-pipe dual exhaust. And the best part is you are in complete control of the power and its soundtrack thanks to the four-speed manual transmission. In fact, this car is all about keeping you connected with the road. And while you feel its muscle car strength, the BF Goodrich tires mounted on the iconic Rally II wheels give you firm control.Complete with original paperwork, including warranty info, title docs, and Protect-O-Plate, this is a very cool big V8 Firebird. So since it's offered at a gone-tomorrow price, you need to hurry up and call today!
