THE GOOD #'s matching all original formula 350. PHS documents in hand. Originally a gold car with black interior. Garage kept the last 20 years accept when it was sitting at the body shop. Body shop started a paint job and gave it back when their F-Body guy quit. I put primer on the back so it was not sitting with bare metal exposed. Rust behind rear tires and one small spot in front of drivers rear tire. Typical rear quarter rust. Floors and trunk are rust free and rock solid. THE BAD Right front accident damage. See pics of damaged right front fender. I have a donor car with a straight fender. These fenders are not produced anymore and very hard to find. 1971 was the only year they put the fin in the fender. I bought the donor car just for the fender and happy to let you have it as long as the initial reserve price is met. OTHER Interior is fair. Drivers seat has rips all other seats are okay. I have extra parts including some dash parts. Tires are old and need replaced. The dual exhaust sounds awesome so hopefully I can capture sound in a video. DRIVABLE BUT NOT LONG DISTANCE DUE TO OLD TIRES It is a project not a daily driver yet. I was a mechanic when I was younger so I fixed it up enough to drive around the neighborhood or to the local gas station which is on top of the mountain I live on and she drives there just fine. I can't find a body shop to save my life. If you have the skills to fix the body work and paint it you can quickly be driving it. Miles are original. Would love to see a full restore on it but I just don't have the cash. TIME TO SELL Trying to add video but e-bay does not allow it. Please e-mail me for a link to the videos. It must sell this time all reasonable offers considered. Low reserve so bid to win.

If one wanted to they could by the 1974 shell on eBay that is a rust free $500 dollar shell and use that to rebuild the esprit and have two 1971 firebirds. Interesting way to turn this investment into two very rare expensive cars. Fully restored these car are selling on eBay for nearly $50k. The prices are only going up since they are not making more of them. Reserve has been met so bid to win. I wish you much luck and hope to see these birds fly again one day. Please agree to stay in touch and share photos.

Car is once again down to the low low price of $4k. Congratulations to the judge for the current high bid. Since the reserve is still met the car will be sold even if it sells for this low price. Happy bidding and kind regards, Dan On May-11-17 at 16:17:23 PDT, seller added the following information: Just had a fellow firebird enthusiast look at the car. He showed me the drivers floor board is rusted where the rear passenger would set their feet. Also the trunk is showing signs of rust. Still very solid but not a rust free trunk and floor pans like I had indicated.
