Pontiac Firebird

A firebird and a camaro is basically the same car. The reason I chose a firebird is because there wasn't as many made. When you go to a car show you will always see a first generation camaro. (Usually several) You may see a first generation firebird, but not as many. Seeing a 1967 firebird is scarce.
If buying a firebird or camaro to restore Be sure to know the commonly overlooked places for rust.
I have looked at nearly 100 cars priced under $5000.00. All were rusted out around the roof where the glass seals. The car I bought looked good until I removed the glass.I will need to replace the roof skin. The chrome strips and sealer hides this area. My advice If you can't see it assume you will need to repair it.
Also look at the bottom of the doors close to the front. This is a common rust spot that is overlooked.
Check the firewall around the wiper motor. Water get inside and lays. Mice also build nest here which holds the moisture in.
These areas can be fixed by a good body man without to much trouble. Just make sure you know what you are getting into.
If the rear frame rails and the rocker panels are rusted out avoid the car.These are very difficult to replace and keep the car strait. Small holes can be repaired. Large holes stay away.
Remember this when buying any car to restore. Small bubbles often turn into large holes. A little bondo and paint (primer) can hide big problems. If I smell fresh paint I look for problems.
Good luck.

Advertisement about this vehicle from the seller was great...There was no mention of any problems and the ad stated that the A/C gets cold. However, when I received the vehicle from a transport company, I was told by the driver that the passenger window does not work. Not only that, the exhaust was load and was told it needed a complete exhaust system including a Catalytic Converter, needs a new passenger window motor, gas gauge does not indicate accuracy, transmission makes slight downshift noise, antenna does not work up or down, the TCS (Traction Control Sensor) light on dash stays on, hand brake does not work, A/C Compressor does not engage when A/C is turned on, blows warm air, front tires indicate inner wear, rack-n-pinion is slightly damaged which causes stiff steering and I had to replace all the exterior safety bulbs including license plate lights. To my amazement when I was having the exhaust system replaced, there was noticeable undercarriage signs that this vehicle was flood damaged with mud & water at least a foot or more for a considerable time period. There was oil in the cooling system and the oil stick was black. There was many other problems that was noticed when I had it professional detailed, but it is too numerous to mention. I made a bad investment, but I trusted the words of the seller that was also a dealer.

Purchased two historical cars fro a buyer that couldnt have been more helpful in getting the cars ready to transport etc. One of the easiest most positive transactions ive had in 13 years on ebay. Very pleased with the entire purchase and follow up.

The auto was stated as being restored,which it was not.I have alredy replaced all the wiring,all new weatherstripping gaskets,repaired and replaced many dash parts.The car was stated as being rust free,not,the rt corner of dash is rusted out in process of repairing it,the package tray was rusted out ,in process of cutting it out and replacing it,was the car painted outside,it will need to be sanded down and redone,the windows are scratched bad enough and chipped they will need replacing,the sail panels were rotted beyond repair

i bought this vehicle as a parts car and was told of all the new parts on it when in fact it did not pocesss them!! i was and still am completly dissatisified!

received the book in a timely manner once I paid. Book was in the exact condition it was advertised as.

I had the most wonderful and friendly business deal with the seller. Even though this Pontiac Firebird Formula is a 1993 year model, it is in near perfect shape and condition. It really looks like new! The seller did the condition of the car. And he had the most excellant pictures, both of the car, and the background. It really got me, ha! I had been looking for this exact car, and day-dreaming about one, for several years. I wanted a 1993, Pontiac Firebird Formula, and red, with the Corvette LT1 engine, with an automatic, and charcoal cloth inside. Besides, it had really low mileage for its age, was the best price, and was the closest to me, as well. Therefore, for the above given reasons, I think that I got a really great deal, with this eBay auction. And my special car to enjoy for as long as I can. In other words, I finally got my 'dream car' and I am retired and 67 years old. Thank your, Greg Pence, from Winchester, KY.

positive about this car is it looks good and drives great.the negative is water leaks in when it rains or through the car wash. no a/c because of mods that were made. body is not straight.
