ALL ORIGINAL CAR. ORIGINAL MOTOR,TRANSMISSION,INTERIOR. FACTORY AIR CONDITIONING, POWER BRAKES, POWER STEERING.

This is my 1968 Pontiac Firebird 400. The car, and motor are numbers matching, and it has 90,867 original miles on it. The car is just about a survivor besides being painted by the previous owner in the early 2000s. I am the third owner of the car.

THE BODY:
  When repainted the car was completely painted from under hood to inside doors, and jams to under trunk. The car has a nice shine to it, and the paint is in great shape given year. The original color was Nightshade Green. The car has the original glass in it. The driver side, and passenger side windows do still have the Firebird emblem etched onto them. The rear quarter glass is original, and in good shape. The rear window has no flaws. The front windshield does have a small chip at the top of it away from the line of sight. The car does have all the original chrome trim around windows, and wheel wells. The front, and rear bumpers are original, and in great shape. Still shiny, and no signs of rust. The car has the original factory 400 emblems on the hood, and on the truck. With the Pontiac emblems on the rear quarter panels (blinkers), and on the front bumper. The car has original hubcaps, and fairly new tires on them. There are a couple SMALL spots of rust that I did take pictures of. They are not very noticeable, and are not to large at all. 

THE MOTOR & TRANSMISSION:
 The motor is the original 400 small block with the original Hydra-matic 400 transmission. The motor is equipped with the original Rochester 4BBL Quadrajet. The car CAME from the factory with air conditioning, and came also with factory power brakes, and factory power steering. The motor is about original as you can get besides hoses, and belts being replaced. It does not have any weird ticking sounds or tapping sounds to it. It crank right up, and idles, and runs smooth. The car turns, and stops better than most late model cars. It turns, and stops with no hesitations, and accelerates without a hiccup. The A/C blows decently cold given the year of the car, and there is quite a temperature difference between outside, and inside car. The transmission shifts perfect. No hesitations or slips. The motor does have a small oil leak. I think coming from the front timing cover. It is not enough to have to put oil in between changes.

THE INTERIOR:
  The interior is all original including the clock, and the radio. The gauges, and all knobs (including windshield wipers, and night time lights) are original. The head lights, and running, and brake lights work, including the blinkers. The high beam light switch (on floor), and lights work as well. The horn works too. The front, and rear seats are original, and are in great shape given year. There is a small split on the shoulder of drivers seat (just needs to be restitched NOT torn). The head liner is not falling down, and still is in great shape. The dash, and glove box, and all trim do not have any cracks or tears, and are in great condition. The carpet does have some wear, but nothing to be concerned with. There are no pieces missing in the interior, and it is complete. 

The car is garage kept, and within the past year hasnt been driven more than 300 miles. I dont have the time to drive the car or keep up with it as it deserves.

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.

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.

1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction

Mon, 01 Aug 2011

For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.
