Well this was one of my best finds of the year. I found it in a barn. My Dad, Chevelle71, and myself are going to fix it up. We were proud to bring this home.

Great find! Doesn't appear to be your typical "barn find" as it looks to be in decent condition!
'69 Firebirds always have a place in my heart since I've owned a couple and even owned an original '69 TA.
Congrats and good luck with it ! ! !

Thanks Jim. The interior has damage from mice, and the transmission was toast. The three of us already pulled the trans out for a rebuild. We have to do all the typical things to get it up to snuff.... carb, brakes, fuel lines, gas tank, wheels/tires, interior, electrical, etc. etc. Hopefully she’ll be done in a few months. 😀

Very nice car. Are you going back all original Pontiac ? Curious 4 speed or auto ? Again super nice find. I am a car nut also.

Not a Pontiac fan but that is one nice find. Looks like most of it is there and in great condition. Nice!!

Thanks everyone. It was very dirty when I found it. We cleaned it up a lot.
It’s an automatic. Originally built as a 350, however it has a 400 in it with a TH350 trans.


Thanks Les. I appreciate it. I can stop by again, we’ll turn you into a Pontiac fan and I’ll trade you for a few things. LOL

You’re always welcome Steve, but have been a bow tie guy all my life.

Best firebird body style in my opinion. Is the top original? That would be amazing after all these years. Now you have got to get it ready for show and shine season!

Me too 😀

Fred, the top was replaced at some point. It’s in great shape.

I’ll keep you all posted with the progress with a few pics in the future.

Nice find , always liked that year firebird.enjoy it.

you made a GREAT FIND !!! You will be ridding in style this summer !!

Well just a little update on the Firebird. She's all done and rollin down the road. Due to the Covid quarantine, we weren't able to work on it together as much as we would've liked. So a big shout out to Chuck (Chevelle71) who took on a lot of the repairs in his barn, once the stay-at-home quarantine started here in Michigan. Here are some before and after pics (that is not me in the pic). It is for sale (OldGas, Craigslist, FB Marketplace, and EB).

Looks good Chuck and Steve! Good progress since I last saw it back in March. Good luck with the sale.

Nice!!!

It would Steve, if only I had the space!
