1968 Pontiac Firebird Sprint OHC


this is a running and driving car, a real AZ/NM survivor
still retains its original Sprint OHC 4.1 Litre Sprint straight 6
(rated back then at I think 215 hp), because of its 4v carb. 
special cam, hi flow intake manifold and dual exhaust manifolds
(thank you John DeLorean once again ) other options include
 PS, 4 spd transmission & dealer installed A/C..
read on !

aprox 1200 of these cars where made and face it most had V8 swaps
done to them, so 1 this original as a survivor is extremely rare.
My guess less then 500 left this original.


Some surface rust sure, but its hard to distinguish the old Burgandy
color from primer, from some surface rust (which easy sands off
in a few minutes..)

Although its been sitting for many yrs not being used, it came 
back to life pretty easily with some fresh gas and a battery.
It obviously still needs a total restoration, but you are starting
with an amazingly straight body front to back with all original
sheetmetal and 90% of its original paint gone down to bare metal.
Windshield was pretty beat up, so I just removed it completely
so it was easier to see. Rest of the glass is good and original.
I didnt drop the gas tank yet, but I may this week to see if the build
sheet is there.

The 14x7 Rallys shown in the car disc brake versions DONT come
with the car, but ARE AVAILABLE OPTIONAL for $500 more.
The car will come with some steel rollers with the original 
very cool 14" Pontiac Wheel covers (see pics)

DRIVETRAIN:  as mentioned earlier, its the original surviving 
4.1 L 6cyl matted to a factory 4 spd transmission, stock rearend
with interestingly enough, multi leaf rear springs. Not sure what
gears came in it stock. It really should be more tuned up.
We did a cap and rotor, but should have new wires, plugs etc.
Starts with a few pumps of the gas when its cold and idles okay
too once its warmed up a few minutes.
New owner may want to clean the gas tank out, even with the
new gas, the exhaust smells a little like old gas.

INTERIOR: The original vinyl showing its age and its obviously
sun beat and worn, but its mostly complete and would restore
with less issues. Floorboards got rust from the inside, and Ive
seen some holes, but some areas there may want to be replaced
during the resto. But the rust isnt from salt and snow and much
less rust then an eastern car this old.
In the dash it has a factory 160 Speedo and factor Hood tach too.
The underdash AC is pretty sweet and contours well the the
stock lower dash. Trunk very solid.


EXTERIOR: Original color was burgandy (most gone)
but alot of the misc trim pieces and emblems NOT shown on the
car still come with the car in the trunk (see pics)
The body very straight for its age and about as rust free as
youll find for a non restored car. 
All the trim seems to be there too. No signs of bondo
or previous damage anywhere.
Still needs full resto, but this is a great starting point
for an easier more profitable restoration or keeper !

SUSPENSION: all factory and original, nothing special but goes
down the road okay for a non restored car.
Drives down the road well for an older car.

This car is 90% rust free Arizona car


Check out ALL the pics below ----->
not sure why people would bid on a car so far away with
small pics showing no details like under the car, but with
OUR ADS, we almost take the car apart to take the pics
our customers deserve !!

it may take a full minute for them all to load if you have a
slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra schroll
bar on the right side.
Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate.
keeping the metal on our cars more preserved then most states.
more info AFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.


































































































































































I Have a set of 2013 18" Camaro rims with tires on them
with the proper spacers too. If the winner is interested them
let me know and they can buy them for $600 more for the pkg.

There you have it, probably The BEST represented Firebirds on Ebay. 
Shows you all the good as well as any bad, hope you appreciate them.
We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars and it shows.
People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale
and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats
paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end.
Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days
speaks volumes. 

Also, if you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what sort
of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating.
People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are
fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers. 

Our auctions have NOTHING to hide .
Restore a car like this yourself or locally and you know
exactly what you have in the end.

Email us with ANY questions before you bid please
If you treat yourself to buying one of our vehicles
youll never buy a total rust bucket again from anyone !!
Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself.
Doing restoration on this type of project is less labor
intensive which means overall cost is less too !
With less horrid surprises later on.
Dont let auctions with little to no pics try to fool you. 
With other auctions,  you really dont know what to expect
until you take the car apart. While we go over our cars ALL OVER
with great pics to help making your decision easier.
Along with ANY other questions you may have.
Email me for a quote for shipping.

Autoblog Classifieds finds: 1987 Pontiac Fiero GT

Tue, May 15 2018

Autoblog's free Readers' Used Car Classifieds section is a great place to list your car for sale, and because these are readers, they often list really interesting cars. Occasionally we find interesting listings, and tell you what's special about them. This 1987 Pontiac Fiero was listed for sale at the time of this writing, but if the listing expires by the time you read this, feel free to browse for other great finds. Thirty years after General Motors stopped building it, the Pontiac Fiero might have finally emerged from the darkness. First, it was a humble commuter car that just happened to be a mid-engined coupe, then it was a re-skinnable basis for Fierorraris or other slightly strange kit cars, and then it made some Worst Cars of All Time lists due to its econobox ingredients, including its Chevy Citation suspension parts. But after a few decades, even the most mediocre car will become interesting as most of the examples built have been run into the ground; why not then the Fiero? The story of the Fiero is paralleled by a number of GM products, as it improved constantly the longer it was built, and by the time of the last model years it was quite decent indeed. And then the plug was pulled. The Fiero might not be a Toyota MR2 or even a Fiat X1/9, but it was made in two body styles, the notchback and the fastback, the latter of which looks especially good now. The Fiero also remains quite affordable, and the plastic body panels do not rust, unlike with the two aforementioned cars. This 1987 car advertised for sale at Autoblog Classifieds does not yet benefit from the 1988 cars' improved suspension, but thanks to its low, low 47,000-mile odometer reading, it looks to be in tip-top shape. The automatic transmission is just the three-speed affair, though, rendering the V6 car here more of a cruiser than a fiery hot canyon carver. Perhaps that has contributed to its good condition, along with the lack of possibly leaky T-tops. Could the Fiero have aged better than your Hall & Oates tapes?

A pair of Mitsubishis, the Mazda CX-30 and electric incentives | Autoblog Podcast #673

Fri, Apr 9 2021

This week's Autoblog Podcast features Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore and Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski as they debate the merits of the redesigned Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 coupes and whether or not they are distinctive and powerful enough to attract buyers. The duo spends some time discussing ongoing EV and infrastructure legislation before turning their attention to a trio of crossovers. Greg muses about the 2021 Mazda CX-30 before Jeremy talks about the refreshed 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross and completely redesigned Outlander. We get nostalgic as we remember the dearly departed Pontiac GTO before wrapping the podcast up by making one more suggestion to a longtime listener who is shopping for a vehicle to replace her aging Honda Pilot.

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.
