Detail about this car
67 Firebird convertible with AC, all original and unmolested. Mechanically solid: Runs great, motor just completely refreshed. Numbers matching drivetrain, factory deluxe red interior/black exterior. Solid floor pans, trunk, body, and underbody. 99% rust free with only a very small paint bubble spot behind each door! Very straight body with no dents. A magnet has been run over the entire body with no detectible bondo spots. This vehicle has spent its life in Nevada and it shows. Odometer reads 44,042 miles and has been recorded by DMV as Box-A mileage. This vehicle had been off the road and siting in Nevada storage since at least the late 80's. It was brought to Scottsdale this year and put up for sale, that's when I got it. The car ran (sounded great) and drove but needed going through after sitting for 30 years. The motor has now been completely refreshed, and all new components have been added. All work has been done within the last 50 miles. Details below.

My goal with this car was to get it mechanically solid before I proceeded with the restoration. Now it's reliable and runs great. Unfortunately I don't have time to properly restore the interior/exterior of this car. When finished this numbers matching, unmolested Firebird will be a top-dollar collector vehicle.
