This Pontiac Firebird (1967-1969) got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1968 Pontiac Firebird is finished in Mayfair Maize with a black vinyl top and equipped with a 400ci V8 paired to a three-speed automatic transmission. It is a one-family-owned lifetime California car, that was purchased new by the owner with the assistance of their grandmother while they were still in college. A friend of the seller is assisting with the sale and describes it as a largely original example with one known repaint and a few modifications. This Firebird is now being offered with some original sales literature and a clear California title.

The black interior comes equipped with a set of bucket seats and shows to remain unrestored. A set of auxiliary gauges have been installed in the center console, along with a Viper alarm system. 60k miles are shown on the odometer, though the actual mileage is unknown.

The YT-code 400ci V8 comes paired to a three-speed automatic transmission. It is currently equipped with a Holley carburetor, though the original 4-barrel is included with the sale. The car reportedly runs and drives. However, the transmission shifts hard and will require further mechanical attention.
