Vehicle Description
A distinct combo, numbers-matching V8 power, and four-on-the-floor
- this 1969 Pontiac Firebird is a gem for those who like driving
their classics and being memorable wherever they go.
The trim tag tells us Midnight Green is the factory-correct color,
making this coupe instantly distinctive. It was only offered in
1969, and we love the way there is a meanness like black but a nice
added refinement when the deep green pops in the sunlight. It only
gets better when you see that this example was given a later
respray to make sure it retains a nice gloss and smoothness. The
overall style of this one seems to be speedy and sophisticated. The
crisp white vinyl roof gives this an upper-class kind of look. It
goes with good panels, a bright chrome bumper, and doors that close
with confidence to give you a total quality presentation. But when
you also look at the dual hood scoops, 400 callouts, Rally II
wheels, and beefy stance, you also know this is a proper power
car.
Like the vinyl top, the factory-correct parchment interior is quite
an attractive contrast against the exterior green. So you'll
happily leave the windows on this hardtop to show off the color
combo. And because the high-traffic areas, like the carpeting, are
done in black, it's easy to enjoy this classic without showing too
much dirt. It has a cool vintage look with the correct seat and
door pattern. And the desirable factory pieces are still in place,
including the working dome light, wide headrests, and a Delco AM/FM
radio cranking out the tunes. This was even a factory A/C car (it
will need servicing and/or parts to restore the function.) And
because this is a true driver's coupe, the classic three-spoke
steering wheel feels grippy in your left hand, and your right one
may never want to leave the Hurst floor shifter.
Under the hood is the distinct light blue block of Pontiac's V8.
This is the original numbers-matching 400 cubic-inch unit topped
with a four-barrel carburetor. So you have an awesome sense of
vintage style to go with the awesome original powerhouse. But as
stock as this looks, it exhales with a deeper growl and added power
thanks to headers feeding the H-pipe dual exhaust and Flowmaster
mufflers. It's a smooth runner that feels confident out on the
streets. Thanks to the Muncie four-speed manual transmission, you
have complete control over the power and soundtrack. Plus, the
power steering, power brakes, and front discs make for a classic
Firebird that's easy to enjoy.
The sale comes with the owner's manual and Pontiac Historic
Services (PHS) documentation. This is an attractive total package
that also offers some of the most alluring features around. So when
you're ready for powerful distinction, you're ready for this
Firebird. Call now!
