69 Firebird convertible in Texas at $11.9K NR. There's a lot of new parts in this car, but a lot of mistakes were made IMO. Things I can see wrong: Front seats are not correct and the rear seat upholstery is a poor job. Air cleaner and hood have 455 badges and it's running a SBC? Steering wheel, shifter and white stickers on the gauges and AC look awful. Dumb place for the gauges where the radio should be and the red trim on the front grill and side chrome looks like a 3rd grader with a crayon did the job. Still, a lot of work has been done.

Obviously he wasn't going for originality, but in 69 the only red interior was the Custom trim. Front seats are not a Firebird pattern of any year. Dash apparently from an A/C car, and yeah, that gauge install is a hack job.

Body shell seems like that car may not have been too rusty, especially that floorpan shot. Pontiac silver-blue metallic engine color looks good on anything. That 327 belongs in a vintage streetrod.

Here's a good one for Halloween... cuase it's creepy. 67 Firebird convert 4 speed car pictured with a mannequin at $14.6K NR in Wisconsin. Nice enough car, but... uh... the dude had to dress that mannequin up.

68 Firebird in Pensylvania with a 455 at $8300 BIN OBO. Originally Seamist Green which I would think looks awesome.

This one is very appealing. 81 Trans AM SE in NY at $15K Reserve not met. There was a lot of money spent on building this car to this point. New 525HP LS3, 6-speed, 4WDB and 3:55 posi. Looks like all the big money has been covered and it just needs the bodywork and fire up the engine. There's a lot of possibilities for a car like this. A 70-73 Trans AM nose and hood with the shaker bolts right on if you wanted to go that route. It has T-Tops, so maybe a Bandit black 77? A little known fact about the last of the second Gens is this the 1979 Trans AM was voted the best handling GM cars by Car and Driver. An 80 WS6 including the thicker sway bar and 4WDB made for a nice riding car. I used to own an 80 Turbo and it was a very nice car to drive.

Interesting article

67 red/red convertible Firebird 5-speed at $40K BIN in Illinois from an online dealer. Nice car for $40K.

67 Firebird convertible in Virgina at $7.8K with a reserve not met. Nice looking car. My guess would be about $25K.

71 Firebird dealer car in Texas at $29K. Word of advice, if you're going to paint your car, pick a color... one color.

Dealer car 67 Firebird 326 2BBL with 44K original miles at $27.5K in Pennsylvania. PNT K2-Gulf Turquoise color is interesting, but not sure if I like it. Would look a 100% better with Rally I's, a stock air cleaner and valve covers.

69 Firebird converible in NJ at $7.5K reserve not met. Guy claims to have spent $90K and the restoration is paid for. Seems odd, but sometimes this kind of deal works out. Lots of work done, but the choice of engine is weak IMO. Also says "re-bodied" and I'm not sure what that means?

Seems a bit optimistic that car will be complete in March 2023.

1940 Pontiac "Delux Custom" whatever that means? Nice car in Florida at $35K BIN. Has a Chebby engine, but the interior is tastefully done and the paints looks very nice to me for a curvy car that's 80 years old.
