Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this 1969 Pontiac Firebird 400
for your consideration. The Firebird 400 was given the 400ci V8
motor which is mated to an automatic transmission. With plenty of
power and a smooth-shifting transmission, this car is a true joy to
drive down the road in. This example has had a complete restoration
which was completed in California.
This particular example is finished in a good coat of Warwick Blue
paint which is paired with a black vinyl top. Pontiac gave the
Firebird chrome accents and bumpers that give the exterior a nice
pop but do so without going overboard. The vehicle rides on 14-inch
wheels wrapped in Firestone Firehawk tires. A unique feature of the
Firebird was the exterior tachometer. Instead of being located on
the interior gauge cluster, it is mounted to the top of the hood,
therefore, being directly in front of the driver when speeding down
the road. One can think of this design choice as a pre-cursor to
the heads-up displays in modern vehicles that allow the driver to
see information without having to take their eyes off of the road.
Another unique design element of the Firebird is the taillights
that give the rear end of the vehicle an aggressive appearance.
Inside the vehicle is a black vinyl interior that is in
exceptionally good condition with everything remaining stock with
the exception of an aftermarket radio and a few additional gauges.
Not only does this vehicle look amazing it drives equally well.
With power steering, power brakes, and air conditioning the driver
is sure to be comfortable on any drive. A unique feature of this
specific example is that it was used in a photoshoot by The Danbury
Mint. Those photos were then used to make a model car that became
available for purchase. One of these model cars is included with
the sale of this vehicle.
The Pontiac Firebird is an American automobile built by Pontiac
from 1967 to the 2002 model years. Designed as a muscle car to
compete with the Mercury Cougar and Dodge Challenger, it was
introduced on February 23, 1967, the same model year as GM's
Chevrolet division platform-sharing Camaro. The first generation
Firebird had characteristic Coke bottle styling shared with its
cousin, the Chevrolet Camaro. Announcing a Pontiac styling trend,
the Firebird's bumpers were integrated into the design of the front
end, giving it a more streamlined look than the Camaro. The
Firebird's rear "slit" taillights were inspired by the 1966-1967
Pontiac GTO. Please call or email with any questions or for
