Vehicle Detail

RELISTED DUE TO EBAY SCAMMER Up for auction today and for your consideration is a 1967 Pontiac Firebird 400 Convertible#'s Match YT engine never removed, albeit lightly detailed. #'s correct TH-400 Transmission Power Brakes, Power Steering, Power Top This 1967 Firebird is just out of private collection and subsequestly up for sale. It is a correct code R-1 Regimental Red car with correct red interior. The interior is completely original in unrestored fantastic shape. The only cosmetic defect being a crack in the door panel which is pictured. The original AM radio and dash bezel is included in the auction, as well as the original parade boot. The steering wheel is free of cracks which is pretty rare on these deluxe wheels. All guages lights, horn, ect. work as they should. The car was built the last week of June 1967 per the trim tag, the original YT motor was cast 2 weeks prior. The code on the trans is correct as well as the intake manifold. I have not checked the distributor, ect. The car appears to be largely unmolested, with the exception of a repaint in its original hue sometime around 1985, per prior owner. The prior owner kept the car garaged for the past 20 years using it sparingly to hop around town in the summer, which is evident by the owner verified 57,000 miles. The front and rear subframes are in excellent rust free shape. The pinchwelt on the rocker panels is crisp with no evidence of rust between the inner/outer rocker where these cars commonly rust swell. It appears at the time the car was painted the rear quarter panels were changed, and they did a fine job. The trunk appears to be very solid and not pictured but included are the spare and jack. All 4 cocktail shakers are in place. The shock towers are original and appear to be rust free. The paint is old, albeit looks perfect from 10 feet away, but as you get up close you can start to see some "crows feet" in places in the paint as well as touched up chips, ect. However, it is still great paint for a driver. The convertible top is BRAND new, and the car has freshly blasted and detailed rally II wheels with a new set of quality tires. This car is not a "bondo bucket" or a body shop special. It is however, a nice original car holding excellent pedigree. I am a advid Firebird collector and it is becoming increasingly difficult to find #'s matching 400 convertibles. The issue is this, if you start out with a "was a 400 car" or a "I put a 400 in it", your car will never be worth what a #'s matching car is worth. Truth be told the asking price on this car is higher than "some" of the other Firebirds for sale...but it is a real deal car, and not some doctored up clone. The car fires right up and runs great with no unusual smoke or rattles, and drives great at 75mph down the highway. This is a very tight original car, and not some thrown together rattle box. This is a great car you can enjoy "as-is" without putting any money into it. Sure, it is by no means perfect, but it is a very nice car with excellent provenance. This car is for sale locally and this auction is subject to being ended at anytime. You are free to call me and discuss a "buy it now" price that I can add to the auction. I have over 250+ positive feedback, however this is a new user ID for my business. 312 622 7533 OK, it's time to answer some questions. Be it known that I am very knowledgable in Pontiacs. So, with that being said I'd like to answer a few questions and educate some buyers. First of all, there is no engine VIN on any 1967 Firebird engine. The way to tell if a engine is #'s matching is to match the engine sequence with the billing history, secondly, the engine is dated coded, on the rear of the block on the drivers side of the distributor. Giving a letter for the month, in this case a F for June, a 14 for the 14th day of the month, and a 7 indicating 1967. The third way to identify a 67 engine is by the 2 letter engine code which is found below the front of the pass. side cylinder head. In this case a YT, which indicates a 1967 Firebird 400 TH -400 car. Partial vin stamping did not start until1968. Next, I did a little more investigating, the trams code is PX, indicating a 67 Firebird 400 auto car. Third, the rear end code, which is located on the drivers side axle tube is US, which denotates a 3.08 posi, correct for a 67 Firebird 400 Finally, this car has it's original "born with" drivetrain. -TERMS OF SALE- I have full faith in the quality of this vehicle and confidence in the accuracy of it's description., unfortunately disclaimers have become a part of lifethese days hence the following: Buyers are more than welcome, and even encouraged to inspect the vehicle in person BEFORE the auction ends.
