Thank you Greg!

A beautiful car. It does wonders for my soul to see one like this. I have all parts to put vinyl top on mine. Seeing one like this makes me lean toward putting it on. I have to know. Did you buy it from a dealer or private party. I will post some pictures of mine as soon as I get batteries for my camera.

Fireball -- Purchased from a small collector car dealer (a one man show). He got it from some old guy a couple years ago. Touched up a few cosmetic items (chrome trim, weather stripping, wheel rims, etc) and then flipped it to me.

After an arduous 3rd party evaluation, I decided to fly out last minute to KC over the weekend for a personal inspection. After the test drive and research with PHS; I decided to purchase the car. What really impressed me (aside from the lack of rust and overall condition of the car) was all of the original documentation and delivery paperwork along with the original protecto plate that came with the car.

I couldn't pass up the deal. It's a good time to buy in this economy.

My wife has always been against a vinyl top, I happen to like then, but you know I'm not going to win this battle. Anyway I showed her pictures of yours and she is saying now maybe a top would look good. By the way, mine is Alpine blue code D and I think a black top would look great, Thanks.

I prefer the Vinyl Tops. It's a personal preference thing I guess. My car is Aleutian Blue; make sure to post your pics once you get the camera fixed!

I love the Mayfair Maize 68s.
That's the color of the car that made me love Pontiacs when I was a little kid. '68 Firebird 400. Later, in 1982, it was the color of my first '68 Goat.

I like that color on 68s too.I was 7 yrs old in 68 when my cousin bought a new GTO that color.He stopped by to take my dad for a ride,and me.I remember how good it looked.I also remember that it smelled really hot because he had been running the piss out of it.You know,that 'new engine smell'.

You just brought back a fond memory of mine... My Grandfather taught auto mechanics at a vocational high school for most of his adult life. When I had my Mayfair '68's engine rebuilt, I put it back into the car and drove it about 100 miles to his house in Alabama. The car looked great and was running like a sewing machine. I took it over for him to look at and I'll never forget the look of pride on his face as he leaned into the engine compartment nor what he said- "It even smells good"... Same smell of hot, fresh paint you're talking about.

Here's mine.
Alpine blue, 400/4-speed/3:55. Ralley gauges, tilt steering wheel. No power steering or brakes. Going to remedy that.

[LawnJockey]

Sweet looking Alpine Blue. Are those 14 or 15 in wheels? If 15 what size tire?

[rememberfireball#22]

She has 215/70/14 on front and 275/60/15 on rear in stalled by a previous owner. Funny you should ask because I am walking out door to have a uniform set of Tiger Paws put on it. Have a car show tomorrow!
