Vehicle Description
1968 Pontiac Firebird 400 For Sale - Rotisserie Restored, PHS Documented Legendary Motorcar is very proud to offer for sale this 1968 Pontiac Firebird 400. The first-generation Firebird, unlike its Chevrolet Camaro cousin, had bumpers integrated into the design of the front end and rear "slit" taillights were inspired by the Pontiac GTO. The 1968 Pontiac Firebird underwent few changes going into its second year. Changes included a one-piece side door glass window in place of side vent wing windows and the exterior also gained fender marker lights. The interior received some revisions and the rear suspension was refined with the adoption of staggered shocks. Both a two-door hardtop and a convertible were offered through the 1969 model year. This 1968 Pontiac Firebird 400 Hardtop has been fully restored having undergone a rotisserie restoration and upgraded with many features which make it a stand out among its kind. The factory build document shows that this car was made with a 400-cu. in. V8 with 4-barrel carburetor, an Automatic transmission and optioned with a Safe-T-Track rear axle, Ride and Handling Package, Power Steering, Power Brakes and Soft Ray Glass. This car now has a larger, well-tuned and smooth revving 455 big block engine which is topped with a Holley double pumper, Edelbrock Performer intake and MSD ignition which work together to create a great sounding note through the full length stainless steel Magnaflow exhaust. The engine has been detailed with a chrome oil pan and valve covers which add to the appeal of the very clean and highly detailed engine bay. Driveability improvements have been realized with the addition of Hotchkis upper control arms, new front and rear sway bars, gas shocks, four-wheel disc brakes and a smooth 5-speed manual transmission with Hurst shifter to go along with the 10-bolt rear end. The exterior Burgundy paint is in beautiful condition and refinished to a very high standard. It has been wet sanded and polished to show off its deep rich color and beautiful body lines. The front and rear bumpers have been re-chromed and present in as-new condition; all exterior trim which is in excellent condition has been entirely restored or replaced including both full length rocker and all wheel well trim, mouldings, accents, and emblems. The interior is in excellent overall condition including seat covers, dash, door panels and woodgrain center console. On the hoist, under close inspection one can see the time effort and money that was spent. The frame and floors have been stripped, blasted and refinished properly, and component parts have been disassembled, cleaned, painted and reassembled with new hardware. This car comes with a copy of the original Window Sticker and Pontiac Historical build document. Having been recently serviced, this fantastic Firebird 400 requires nothing except to be immediately enjoyed by its new owner. Additional Details: 1968 PONTIAC FIREBIRD 400 -
