1967 Pontiac Firebird 400
#’s match PHS documented 400/325 HP, TH400. 1st Production Year. Outstanding example. 1st Time Offered for public sale in over 30 years. California car. 76k original miles on the odometer are believed to be accurate. Factory options include power steering, power brakes, console, soft ray glass, safe-t-track 3.08 posi rear, deluxe interior. Vehicle History The original owner purchased new in 1967. He was from the Mid-West. He moved to California in 1969 and brought the car with him. He sold the car in 1983 to the second owner (also Californian) where it remained in his car collection for 30 years. Exterior A recent exterior restoration was completed. The exterior paint was shot in GM silver using high quality DuPont Chromabase paint. The body is very straight. The car sits on show quality powder coated rally II wheels with new center caps and lugs, mounted to Goodyear Eagle ST tires with excellent rubber. All exterior emblems were replaced, new front and rear bumpers, rocker panels, wheel trim, door handles, driver mirror, front and rear window molding, weather stripping. Stunning car with perfect stance and presence. Interior The dark turquoise deluxe interior was a very rare color option in 1967 and is an outstanding complement to the silver exterior. The original interior build tags were found under the seats. The interior was treated to brand new carpeting, top quality replacement deluxe door panels (Al Knoch), and a re-upholstered original dash pad. The front and rear seats were reupholstered several years back - they look great with very nice foam. There is a very small (quarter size) hole in the passenger rear side of the headliner, otherwise the rest of the headliner is in excellent condition. Undercarriage The chassis / undercarriage remains in its original stock form with no rust or chassis repair thanks to 45 years on the West coast. Finding an untouched undercarriage like this is pretty remarkable. The floor panels and frame rails are outstanding. The original trunk floor is rust free. It was treated to a light splatter paint coating and looks outstanding. The shock towers are perfect. Mechanical All gauges, lights, electrics, wipers, horn function properly. The original AM radio is still in the car and works perfect. The original 100% stock 400 engine
fires right up easily and runs incredibly strong with plenty of power. Original Quadrajet carburetor.
The TH400 transmission shifts are smooth. The car tracks straight and stops
well. Brand new custom dual exhaust set up with turbo mufflers
gives the car an authentic, performance sound.
Super reliable and tight. The original engine mounts were just replaced. The front transmission seal was also replaced. This is a beautiful and rare bird that will definitely win its share of car shows. Could easily be a Pontiac Nationals caliber Firebird with very minimal effort. The car is being sold as is and is also offered for sale locally. I reserve the right to end the auction early at any time. If you’re looking for a first year authentic Firebird 400, I would not pass this one up. The car is available for inspection. Private Seller. Please contact me with any questions.

Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
