Default 1970 Firebird

This is a 1970 Firebird Formula. Has original 400 Pontiac Engine (YS block), 6X casting number heads. TH400 auto trans. Pro billet MSD distrubutor/6a box, Edelbrock torker II mainifold, 750 holley w/vac secondaries, 1.7 comp roller rockers, Long tubes, 3" aluminized exhaust to flowaster, 2 1/2 over the axle. Engine runs and sounds great, transmission shifts great but has leak from gear selector shaft seal. Has 10 bolt rear on its last leg. Would not recommend driving any kind of long distance. Car really needs a nice restoration. I've had the Car since 2001 was my Daily driver back in HS, but has sat in a garage for 2 years. This would be a good project car for Pontiac lovers, or someone looking for a nice motor/trans combo. Car is located in Orlando, FL. Hate to sell this thing, tired to hang onto it so I could restore it one day but I have no where to keep it. $1,800 OBO

It got hit in a parking lot and exposed some shooody body work, the panel had been split before and riveted together with fiberglass on top and when it got hit, it pretty much broke in half and fell off, so what you see is a lot of fiber glass bondo, she needs a full quarter on that side. Motor and trans are sound, needs a lot of body work for sure, it would be nice if chip foose could get his hands on it

I tryed to keep this thing as long as possible, I wanted to restore it, but I've come to the descision that I need to get rid of it, I have no where to keep it (its at a friends house now) and am not going to have the money or place to work on it for quite a while. I wont have a place to take the motor trans out, so I'm trying to sell the whole thing.
