We do our best to inspect these vehicles and list the details. We drive them a couple hundred miles and try to visually inspect all the accessories and make sure everything is working properly. Some are new with warranty, some are 50+ years old, some need just a little TLC, and some are project cars. Please read the full description as well as the terms and conditions before bidding or purchasing.

NOTE: If you bid on this car, that means you have decided to buy this car. PLEASE, we have heard of all the excuses of buyers not wanting to follow through once they win the auction. For example, don't let your kid bid on this car while you are "working overseas with no access to the internet". hahaha Yeah, we have heard this one several times. :) Make sure you have funds secured before bidding. We are serious sellers, we hope you are a serious buyer. If bidding on eBay, but you just can't wait for the action to end? Contact Scott Carter at 801-839-4224 and make an offer to "Buy It Now". To protect you as the buyer, we will still complete the transaction through eBay's "End Auction Early" selling to you as The Highest Bidder. This also complies with eBay's terms and conditions. Please scroll down to the bottom of this page to read the full Terms & Conditions.

Mechanical Description

This Firebird was built to please! The newly rebuilt engine is a 400 cu. in. monster V8 with new cam, lifters, timing chain, water pump and tuned Edelbrock carburetor and intake and it has less than 500 miles on it! It runs AMAZING! See video below. It has a buttery smooth automatic transmission and shifts tight. The V8 engine starts and roars to life instantly from stone cold. You can do 75-80 MPH and the engine sounds inside the cabin will resonate your core without deafening you while you race down the interstate or a winding country road. Mash on the pedal at a stoplight, and you'll hear the rumble and roar! Everything appears to work nicely. As with all used cars no express warranties are implied. Do yourself a favor and have an inspection done to give you that piece of mind that the car is all there. As this car deserves a personal touch, please call us for any questions regarding this rare gem. 801-839-4224

Exterior Description

The exterior of this Firebird is glossy and will draw the attention of everyone who sees it. ABSOLUTELY ZERO RUST!! The undercarriage is solid black and free of rot and rust, even rust stains! It has very smooth and glossy paint as you can tell in the photos with only minor imperfections that only noticeable from close up. All the black stripes are only stickers, so they can be removed easily. The chrome and trim pieces show off a wonderful patina that mirror it's age as a near 40 year old classic. It has been carefully maintained and appears to have been painted, but there is no evidence of any body damage anywhere. The original black honeycomb wheels that came with the car originally are inlcuded. This car isn't concourse, so you wont be afraid to drive and enjoy it everyday.

The inside will time-warp you to a Big-Hair Band age gone by. It has been maintained as close to an original condition and a wonderful one at that. The seats feel amazing to sit in! They appear original and only the driver's seat has minor cracks that can be easily fixed. No other seats have rips or tears in the vinyl and the carpet is SPOTLESS. No smoking is evident.
