Vehicle Detail
Unrestored original. 350ci/center console auto. Has had a re-paint in the last ten years. Some paint bubbles are appearing but no rust holes through. One area on hood has peeled. For "driver" quality looks, area /spot repairs and paint matching could make this nice. Otherwise a perfectionist would need to repaint entire car. Power top works and is "driver" usable for another year, but rear plastic window is bad. Needs: Driver side front floor metal panel, headlight bezels, and some tweaking for better operation and looks. Interior could use front seats re-done. Most lights work including oil and alternator. There is a seperate under dash temperature guage. May need a dimmer switch. Tires are fairly new. All windows work and glass is good. Windshield has a crack on lower passenger side. This car needs to be driven more. Good power; transmission. Power steering and brakes. Comes with an aftermarket spoiler, new in box and new cap/points/plugs. Or, I will keep the spoiler and furnish new headlight bezels in its place (unpainted kind). Most parts can be gotten at Year One. On Aug-28-11 at 05:39:39 PDT, seller added the following information: I just added two pictures (last two pictures of the 24 pictures) near the rocker panel and passenger door open showing surrounding condition where rust is. The rust is just above the rocker moulding and the last pictures are below it and of the rust inside door opening. Door itself has no rust through. See "question/answer" about this rust area (pictured after the parts/spoiler picture). On Aug-28-11 at 06:28:29 PDT, seller added the following information: Most buyers know, the reserve is lower than the "buy it now" price. Reserve will not be given. Bid what a running/driving/braking/well described Firebird convertible is worth. On Aug-28-11 at 09:38:47 PDT, seller added the following information: Windshield/dash Vehicle Identification Number matches title. Horn does not work (probably relay). Horns make noise when direct wired. Has original wiring with no burns/melts. Radio not working, but heater blower motor does. Has locking lug socket for mags. On Aug-28-11 at 15:25:41 PDT, seller added the following information: Starts and runs pretty good considering the previous owner bought new tune up parts (come with car as pictured), but never got around to it three years ago. The old plugs are "old". It still runs like it doesn't matter. If I get a chance I'll install the plugs, but no promise. Because if you're going to install the plugs, why not the cap and the points? Most people know how and look forward to doing it on their NEW Firebird. On Aug-28-11 at 17:11:40 PDT, seller added the following information: Just in case someone takes the hurdle and buys this, I will be traveling from 8/31 to 9/8. The internet may be accessable for the first couple days, or more? If your phone numbers are left via Ebay email, I will call from my location (if cell reception is working). On Aug-30-11 at 05:00:37 PDT, seller added the following information: System flushed (not much rust came out). Maintains steady temperature. There doesn't seem to be any engine oil or water leaks and transmission has a small drip after running for awhile, but not a steady drip. Has front disc brakes. Rear wheel wells almost rust free (small quarter inch x 4 inch spot above inside of tire on driver's side). Quarters/rockers are all metal via magnet, and may be original. This could be driven home with a young spirit of road trip memories (bring an I-Pod for cruise tunes; although loud music with top down broadcasts to the surrounding world-"I'm having a hell of a time in my time capsule"). Buy this Firebird and 64 Riviera (see other item) two four barrel big block for a total of $17,000. Both worlds: muscle era's of two different kinds.
