1975 Pontiac Firebird

This 1975 Pontiac Firebird Formula 400 embodies the best of GMs mid-seventies muscle car excitement. A three-owner car from new (original owner had if for 35 years), this Formula 400 showcases its rare factory color, Arctic Blue with dark blue interior, blue tinted glass and correct factory striping. The car is highly optioned to included power steering, power brakes, factory air- conditioning, tilt wheel, AM/FM radio with windshield antenna, rally gauges, Rally ll wheels, bucket seats, console shift, etc. 1975 was the first year for the deeper rear window which offered improved visibility, and it was the last year for the fiberglass hood which featured the signature Formula Dual Hood Scoops. According to the owner, this 1975 Formula retains its original numbers matching 400 CID engine with Turbo Hydramatic 350 transmission. It has been recently serviced with new battery, remanufactured original Quadrajet 4-barrel carb, AC converted to cycling clutch system with R134A, plugs, wires, cap and rotor, thermostat, hoses and belts, and all fluids. The car also features a Hotchkis TVS suspension consisting of larger sway bars, tuned rear leaf suspension and tuned front coil springs along with new bushings, hardware and Gas KYB shocks at each corner. This suspension combination lowers the car slightly giving it a perfect stance. Completing the underside is a Pypes Performance stainless steel true dual exhaust giving it the perfect V8 rumble. The car remains highly original and under is current ownership, it has been sympathetically upgraded to build gently on its survivor status. The lower half of the car has been professionally refinished with the paint perfectly matched to the original Arctic Blue paint that is still retained on the hood, roof and trunk. New fender well trim, lower rocker trim, lower door witndow trim, drip rails and correct OEM-striping bring this car to its former glory. Mechanically, this Formula 400 is spot on in all areas and is a pure pleasure to drive. The car pulls strong in every gear, the suspension and steering is tight and true and it brakes strong and straight. The Pontiac Firebird Formula 400 is revered by the American muscle car community. Values continue to climb and high quality, fully documented examples as the car here is an excellent choice for automotive investment. The car comes complete with the original owners manual, two set of keys, PHS documentation, eight years of service records/receipts, a small notebook from the original owner logging fuel purchases and maintenance.
