A cool color combo, a cold A/C interior, and all the right
investments - including a new top make this 1968 Pontiac Firebird
Convertible quite striking. And it even respects its history
everywhere from the bright chrome to the numbers-matching V8.
Raspberry metallic is the perfect way to stand out in a crowd.
After all, it has a boldness similar to red but with an added
sophistication that goes well on a sharply-restored classic like
this. And that metallic element really pops on a sunny day, which
is exactly what you want on a sunshine-friendly convertible. But
you can tell there's a lot more going on here than just the color.
The restoration made sure the full package looks good everywhere
from the window seats to the bright shine of the full chrome front
end that's the hallmark of these early Firebirds. And the crispness
of the convertible has the understandable look of new. Plus, it has
the right sporty style with the Rally II wheels and hood
scoops.
The deep tones of the paint go well with the black convertible top,
and when you fold it back, it reveals an attractive full black
interior. It has a nice stock style with low-back front bucket
seats, a center console, clean door panels, and premium walnut-like
trim. There are the right cool cruiser upgrades, like an AM/FM
radio with aux input and cold-blowing air conditioning. Plus, it's
a better driver with a sports steering, auxiliary gauge trio, and
Pontiac's iconic hood-mounted tach.
Under the hood is the numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V8. But you
can tell from the presentation that the motor has been given the
right upgrades for added power. This includes a Holley four-barrel
carburetor, an Edelbrock intake, headers feeding into the dual
exhaust. It has the solid driving feeling of a well-maintained
classic. And you also get all the right easy cursing features like
the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, power
brakes, and front discs.
This is a smooth-driving and smooth-looking classic convertible. So
if you like true distinction and all the right upgrades, don't let
this Firebird slip away. Call today!!!
