70 Formula Firebird in Keylime green at $35K in CA. A set of honeycombs would look great on this car.

It's sandalwood.
And looks to be original issue interior.
The right colors in the right places , even the carpet.
Rare sight on any sandalwood cars these days.

Many times I have considered some high output off road lights like that on the roof of my car.
To share the blindness back to these drivers today with their bionic blinding headlights.

74 Firebird with Ram Air at $23K in Wisconsin. The shifter looks like it was made in a HS woodshop. Nice car with CA plates, so low rust.

It may be totally irrelevant, but those Black plates belong to a mid-sixties sold car.
If the car was originally sold in CA or brought into CA, it would have blue or white plates depending on when registered

The emissions decal appears to be for a 49 state car.

Good catch. Black plates in CA ended around the end of the 69 model year selling season. Some 69's and all 70's got the blue plates.

This 69 bird is a scam. I bought it this summer on BAT. Car is sitting in my garage as we speak. I advised eBay.

Wow. I'm surprised it's that easy to run a scam like this.

Damn the under carriage on this car is spotless. Looks great and is the best of the best, but dang man, start with a Trans AM. Someone needs to finish it and it wouldn't take much to get it to look like this...

That's the first time I've seen those gauges and I checked them out in more detail, they're REALLY cool. I may have to add those to my SD and just put the originals on a shelf.
