Gateway Classic Cars of Philadelphia is proud to offer this red
1975 Pontiac Firebird Formula 350! This vehicle is a great
representation of this GM classic. 1975 saw a considerably poor
year for dealers as fewer than 7.1 million cars were sold. Adding
to this issue was the overall styling evolution of most vehicles
this year onward as sleek body lines shifted to boxier shapes.
Emission controls were addressed with GM installing catalytic
converters on all its vehicles. While these were placed on
Firebirds, it cannot be said that this vehicle underwent any poor
aesthetic changes. The power plant may have diminished from a 455
to an optional 400 or 350, but the Pontiac Firebird still was
flying strong compared to its pony car rivals. This Firebird still
retains the cool factor of the mid-seventies and has some kick
thanks to a 350 V8 engine and a four-speed manual transmission that
rips this sweet ride down the street! Open the hood to study the
extremely clean engine bay and you'll be greeted by the familiar
Pontiac metallic blue engine block topped with a Quick Fuel
Carburetor and Edelbrock� performance intake manifold! This engine
was completely disassembled and stripped clean. Bored .030 and
cylinders honed, the work on this 350 was done right. Step back and
take in the car with its Formula 350 badging to the period correct
rubber bumpers. A solid set of radial tires are worn by stock
racing wheels and gives the car an aggressive stance. Pontiac
aficionados can quickly differentiate this Firebird from other
years due to the wraparound rear window with the revised roofline.
Speaking of rooflines, this Firebird features a nice black vinyl
top that pairs quite nicely with the black and white interior.
Upper white door panels, headliner and vinyl bucket seats are
boldly matched with black carpet and dash. Additionally, a
woodgrain panel holds the Pontiac performance instrumentation and
proudly conveys that classic 70s style. Without a doubt, this is
the car you need to drive at your next cruise or show. Its stock
appearance and valiant red paint ensures that everyone knows you
chose wisely. You drive a Pontiac! Additional work done by
Performance Machine Services include new Cam bearings, core plug,
rebuilt heads and rebuilt distributor. To view this 1975 Pontiac
