I took just took some pictures and loaded here:

Jeff, I loaded the pics on the link above, and correct, all interior is in place, no rips on seats, doors, etc. headliner has a rip on the dome light, depending on your plan you can fix and leave with or replace (I was planning to replace).

As fa as trades or possible trads: trades or partial trades. Right now I honestly do not have the space or time to deal with another project, but I could be interested in parts for my projects (67 and 68 Firebird).

Quick list:

1- suspension goodies - tubular arms, air ride, 4 link convo, coilovers, etc

2- brake goodies

3- powertran - sure, complete LS engine\tranny combo

4- wheels and tires - 18 to 20"

Thanks!

Hi, I am in San Ramon, by Pleasanton\Dublin, about an hour form Sacramento or 45 mins from San Francisco. I have access to a trailer and could help load, etc if you are local.

Any questions, feel free to touch base. I will be as honest and tried to be as unbiased (even though I am selling the car) as possible. Honestly it is an excellent and solid car, ready to be cleaned up and built or restored.

I am only selling as I have too many projects in line and picked up a 68 convertible otherwise I would build this Firebird. I have spent a LOT of time locating this Firebird as I did not want to deal with rust, fixing rear quarters, floorpans, trunk area, etc. I have been there before and never want to go back to deal with Swiss cheese cars, that is where people spend way too much time and money that could be better spent on other areas of the project. The car is ready to go to a good home, has a clean California title, etc.

Cheers,

Gui

So....I may be doing something else form the deep end of good karma and helping a local guy I have knows for a while who works at an auto parts shop. Very sharp and knowledgeable kid who has always asked me about getting a Firebird. I will give him e a SIGNIFICANT discount on the car if a0 he promises to complete the car and not build and flip it, B0 promises the powertrain will not be a Chevy engine (nothing against them just woudl rather not see a 350 on the Bird... now LSX...hmmmm:) C), helps me some on my project :)


Meeting him shortly, will post up how it goes. The way I see it is its too good of a car to seat in storage and glad someone that really wants a Firebird will get his hands on it :)
