For Sale at Auction: 1969 Pontiac Firebird in Palm Beach, Florida

This 1969 Pontiac Firebird 400 is VIN 001 from the Pontiac Van Nuys assembly plant and is powered by a matching-numbers 400ci V-8 engine mated to a Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission. The car was built on September 19, 1968, and shipped to Nelson Pontiac, in El Monte, California. It was to be used as an auto show display vehicle kept on the West Coast but was never turned back into Pontiac and the dealer kept it for himself. The car is well-equipped with the 400ci engine package, Turbo-Hydramatic transmission, power steering and power brakes, air conditioning, tilt column with simulated wood steering wheel, Rally II wheels, red-line tires, remote trunk release, shoulder harness belts, headrests, gauges with clock, deluxe interior and about every option available for 1969. It was frame-off restored and given a fresh coat of the correct paint code QQ, Verdoro Green. The original matching-numbers engine and transmission were also rebuilt. Once the restoration was completed, the car was driven only test miles to make sure everything was working properly. It comes with a copy of the complete set of PHS paperwork.
