Hey Tom, I think it was Ram Air, 4 spd, not Ram Air 4, LOL!;)
I don't know what it's worth, but it sure sounds nice.

Pontiacmuscle, is it a non R.A., R.A. or an actual working R.A., R.A.:D

I used to own a non R.A., R.A. 69 Firebird. (in case you thought i was joking)

You sound kind of anxious, only 22 minutes after your first post.:D
Aren't 1st gen Firebird vert values all over the place anyway?

There's a low mile '68 vert in AutoTrader listed for $28,000 right now. And it's only a 350/350THM. Has A/C. In Arizona.

Lightfoot 11-11-2009 09:11 PM

better example
 
Here is a '69 that SOLD recently. 350 4-speed, non A/C car (Carousel Red?)

People do not seem to be opening their wallets recently for '67 - '69 Firebird 400 convertibles.

Excluding the handful of round ports, there's probably not one that's worth much more than a factory ram air, 4-speed car, though.

Condition is key. Matching numbers? Post some pics when you get it...

what's it worth? don't know these days. i will tell you that i renewed my insurance on both cars and they had no problem raising the coverage on my 'bird to $30k (through hagerty). i've got about $35k in the car and could probably sell it for around $23-25k. and even after telling them that, it was no problem to increase the coverage to $30k. we need pics of yours, since condition is a huge factor in price.

22 minutes can seem like an eternity when you're waiting for info on a new purchase.

What are you gonna do about the 'new' Ventura?;):)

Nothing to do but Paint It Hot Rod Black and Drive It....Converting to a dual master and disc brakes is a priority due to my kids, families safety....I can pick it up anytime.

Good one, I thought this 'bird might of changed your plans.
Is the '69 heading to your place yet?:)

The 'Bird is a wonderful bonus to a terrible week Ive had (been in the ER 3 times this week...DAMN PREDNISONE!) I will be ordering PHS on it Friday and have pics at that time. IF I pass on it; it will be offered here as well as Ebay and Hemmings.

Cool let us know, Sounds interesting. I would like a shot at it

The Boss 11-12-2009 05:13 PM

Get in line Paul! ;)

mwritter 11-12-2009 06:28 PM

I'd like to take a guess at what it's worth but what's the condition? Original as in survivor-type condition or needs restoration? I'm going to guesstimate $60k if very nice original and $25ish if it needs restoration.

Ron Landis 11-12-2009 06:59 PM

Whoa!!!

What am I missing? That's Judge territory nowdays! I've been amazed at just how low the first gen ragtops have been going for. I've seen decent cars needing resto @ $15K or less. Nicer ones @ $20-25k. Nothing selling in the $30s or $40s that I've seen. I'm not that well-versed on these cars, though. Ron

Thanks for all the input gentlemen..the info I posted is all I was told currently. I hope to have more info tomorrow, the VIN and possibly pics
