1968 Firebird 350 M/T Project Car in Minnesota
Up for sale is my 68 Firebird 350 car. Has a stock 1969 Firebird 350 2bbl engine, 3 speed heavy-duty Dearborn manual trans, and 3.23 posi. Originally red exterior with red deluxe interior. Runs and lot drives (but no brakes).
Being a Minnesota car, the bottom is very rusty. Comes with a donor body shell from Oregon. I was going to use the donor body to replace the 'bottom chassis' (firewall to tail panel). Its big job, but perhaps not as big as welding all of these individual reproduction panels together (certainly less expensive). The radiator support, inner fenders, cowl area, roof, and rear window area are all surprisingly clean. No body filler around the windows that my magnet could find. Comes with lots of extras- nice original 400 hood, nice original center console, original GM Hurst shifter, original GM fan shroud, black deluxe steering wheel, extra front fenders, good door shells, bushings, etc. Also have the PHS report for it. Located about 30 minutes east of St. Paul, MN. Only selling because I got a very unlikely opportunity to buy my dream car. Asking $6,750 or best offer. Clean title in my name. Donor body has a bill of sale. Call Matt at 715-410-465six for more info. I can send more pics too. Thanks |

$6,100 or best offer. Too complete of a car to part out, could be a very cool car once restored!

V8Liveson,
What is the ‘bottom chassis’ you’re referring to ? Firebirds and Camaros (as you know) are uni-body cars. They’re an entire ‘frameless’ body from the firewall to trunk and rockers to roof. There is no ‘bottom chassis’. Are you referring to the ‘sub-frame’ underneath ? If so, that’s a completely separate scenario. Best Regards, Dave Call/Text (610) 842-7905 Email: gto3deuces@gmail.com |

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the message. I got the term 'bottom chassis' (and the idea of swapping it) from this individual who builds them from repro steel: http://www.musclecarmetal.com/WIP/Bottom/index.htm Take a look at the pictures, it will make more sense than me trying to explain it. A big job? Yes. But if you add up all of the metal you would have to buy and weld together, it's over $2,000. So carefully 'harvesting' the bottom chassis from the donor body was the route I was going to take. Hopefully this makes sense. |
