Vehicle Detail
1970 Pontiac Firebird Formula 400 4 Speed manual transmission. All numbers match. Carousel Red (Orange) with black interior. Repainted and detailed in 2008. It is an original carousel red (orange) with black interior Formula 400 4 speed. Won best in class (stock) at the 2008 STARS (Southern Trans Am Regionals) Show in Tallahassee Florida. Won best in class at the 2009 American Pontiac Association show in Galveston, Texas. This formula is in very nice driver condition. It runs and operates great, handles well and can proudly be driven or shown. It gets great compliments whenever I take it out. The car is rust free. It has all of its original body panels. It was a Utah and Idaho car most of its life. It was brought to Florida in 2007 where I bought it and brought it to Texas. It is located in Houston Texas where it is always garage kept. The car is all numbers matching including the WT code block, # 12 heads, 9799068 intake, 7040263 carb, exhaust manifolds, transmission, and 12 bolt rear end. The car still has its original 23 amp alternator (professionally rebuilt in 2008), original power steering pump and original radiator. It has a reproduction dual exhaust installed with the correct style cross flow muffler. The car has never been modified. the hood scoops have not been cut and the hood lays flat. Factory options are: 4 speed manual transmission Push button AM radio Console Soft ray windshield glass Roof molding F70X14 white letter tires Rally II wheels Variable ratio power steering Custom trim Documentation includes PHS (Pontiac Historic Services) documents, owners manual, receipts, etc. The car has a dash cap and an aftermarket radio currently installed. I do have a correct and very nice AM/FM radio with trim bezel that can go with the car for extra $$. The car has 15 inch Rally II wheels and 255/60/15 Radial T/A tires installed. I do have a set of 14 inch Rally II's with redline radials that could be included for extra $$, or swapped for the 15's on the car now at the buyers option. The passenger side front tire does rub the fender when going over large bumps. Serious buyers can and are encouraged to see the car by appointment. Payment by cash or certified funds only. The car will not leave my possession until all funds are cleared to my satisfaction. Shipping for out of town buyers will be the responsibility of the buyer, but I will assist as possible. Please ask any questions you may have, I will be happy to answer. This car is over 40 years old and like any old car is not perfect. I have described it to the best of my ability. You are encouraged to view it in person if you are a serious buyer. Good luck and happy bidding! On Aug-23-11 at 16:03:39 PDT, seller added the following information: I wanted to mention some items in the interest of full disclosure: The drivers side window is original to the car and has some scratches in it. There is a blemish on the glove box door where something appears to have been glued to it at one time. The door panels and interior plasic trim are original to the car and have some minor wear. Again, the car is over 40 years old and not perfect. I preferred to keep it original where possible rather than "restore" it with incorrect Chinese made replacement parts.
