The bid is $7600 with no reserve as of this post, it will be interesting to see if it makes it to the end of the auction.

The convertible clone would be the most fun to drive around but its value will always be the value of a convertible plus the cost of the TA parts. A great hobbyist car but not a true collector. |

Regarding a 4-speed, I also agree it'll become a novelty in time, but that's what makes it more desirable IMO, because you can learn to drive it. I bought my first GTO when I was 16 and had never driven a 4-speed. I had to figure out how to drive it to get it home. I was starting out in third and thought it was dog slow... fond memories now. |

Happens a lot. Someone goes to look at a car and makes them an offer. No eBay fees and the deal is done.
There were two ads... this one still is up and it's at $11.9K: https://www.ebay.com/itm/32570723648...8AAOSwcYtkl2L4 Last edited by thews; 06-27-2023 at 06:42 PM. |

87 Firebird Tojan with 26K miles at $20k bin in NY. Of all the strange Pontiac offshoots, I like this one the least. The wing is too big and it just looks like a fat Firebird to me. Only 26K miles though, so there's that.

69 Grand Prix in Tacoma Washington at $200 NR. I've never seen a GP with a white interior... didn't know that was a thing.

79 Trans AM WS6 in CA at $200 NR non-T-top car. Car and driver named the 79 T/A the best handling car with the anemic 403 Olds engine (this one has the 403). I love these cars and with basically any T/A from 70-81 you can swap front ends to build what you want. I have an 80 T/A WS6 that came from Utah that I plan to bolt a 72 front end on and replace the turbo 301 with a Pontiac 400. Project car for sure, but with a life span of over 10 years the parts are out there are fairly cheap. Also love the rear taillights. What's up with the gas door?

Another Lobby post
Thews, your enthusiasm for posting NON 67-69 Firebird Tech entries into this TECH forum seems to know no bounds.
What valuable '67-69 Firebird Tech question or info does the majority of your eBay posts include??? BTW, when Car & Driver deemed the '79 TransAm the Best Handling car that model year, the Car & Driver writers did so by specifically testing a lightweight (believe non AC) 301 powered WS6 T/A. Memory serves right, the competitors were the '79 Camaro z28, the new bodystyle '79 Mustang, & a 79 Corvette, that the Corvette engineers had slipped in a few preproduction 1980 suspension pieces.

71 GTO in Ohio at $28.5K BIN OBO. Any car painted black will show body imperfections. Needs interior work, which is the easy part. Runs and drives.

@Thews -c’mon back with more finds!
Hey Thews, it’s been 4 days w/o any new eBay/cars4sale sightings. I love checking this thread for new posts! Please keep posting! Btw, I think I’d seen in person, that seriously rusty’69 Gold FB that was listed in NJ a page or two back. I was excited to check it out over a year ago only to discover it was many years passed saving. It would be a true labor of love and insanity to bring it back as it was a base V8 ‘Vert. A friend called it a parts car at best.

"Knee deep in my own hypocracy" LOL, hardly! I only commented as your info in the '79 403 T/A listing was erroneous. If this entire thread was in the correct Forum, I might of nicely commented the same. Not sure how clear cut it can be, this forum is for technical threads related to '67-69 Firebirds.
Why is it a LOBBY thread, very similar to that of prev member Bonneville Joe's Craigslist thread allowed to run, as a catch all of everything project or running vehicle wise for sale on eBay in this forum??? It would be one thing in the Lobby, but in the '67-69 Firebird Technical Forum?? All of these Pontiac Technical Forums were designed to help members identify issues & help keep their specific model Pontiacs running, as well as to assist members with more in depth restoration issues. The Lobby, as well as the Clubhouse were designed for non technical Pontiac comments.
