The mention of Pontiac and Firebird brings back memories of Smokey and the Bandit, and Burt Reynolds driving a 2nd generation Firebird. But what's constantly overlooked is the first generation of the Pontiac Firebird. Born amongst the greats such as the Ford Mustang and the Chevrolet Camaro, staying relevant was one tough job but the Sixties Firebirds prevailed and triumphed. Up for grabs today is a perfect example of a 1st generation Firebird but with a good twist. The car is located in Florida and with just a reported 4,000 miles on the clock this 1969 Pontiac Firebird is the perfect throwback to the good old days and a mix of modern performance.
Exterior and Interior
To kickstart a legacy like the Firebird marque is no easy thing but the coke-bottle styling and classic American muscle car cues won the hearts of many, and the Firebird name was born. This 1969 Pontiac Firebird with its white exterior and blue racing lines not only showcases those classic American body lines but also gives it a sporty muscle car persona. The black 3 piece HRE wheels give the car a modern look as well as compliment the exterior of the car really well. The interior of the car is black in color and mostly original with the door cards still having the Firebird insignia. The black leather seats are in great condition and do not show any sign of old age. You would not have to miss out on those sunny drives as this car comes equipped with a vintage AC heating system that perfectly blends in with the interior of the car. There is also a custom sound system with a touch-screen head unit in place to crank up some good tunes as a great driving accompaniment.
Engine
In terms of original firepower, the largest engine under a 1969 Firebird’s hood would be the 400ci Pontiac V8 engine, but this 1969 Pontiac Firebird has borrowed something from sister brand Chevrolet. Pop the hood, and the first thing you notice is a custom engine cover that is painted to match the exterior color. Under this cover lies the real treat, a genuine, bonafide Chevrolet LS1 V8 with a Texas Speed camshaft for added pep and aural delights. Transmission duties are handled by the venerable GM 4L80E 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission and sent to the rear wheels. Rack and pinion steering helps with maneuvering whilst upgraded disc brakes all-round from a C6 Corvette ensures that stopping power comes in spades too. You also get much better handling thanks to a Full Art Morrison front subframe and The 4-link rear suspension in place which makes sure that the car holds together with the increase in power.
This 1968 Pontiac Firebird Convertible Pro Street is a full-on blown street machine that takes first-generation Firebird styling and turns the aggression up considerably. Showing approximately 53,397 miles, this example is powered by a seller-reported 389ci supercharged V8 based on a Pontiac 350 block, topped by a 6-71 Roots-type blower and dual Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors. Power is sent through a TH400 3-speed automatic to a 12-bolt rear end with 3.73 gearing and Positraction. Finished in Blue with custom flame graphics over a Black interior and topped with a white convertible soft top, this Firebird combines classic open-air muscle with unmistakable Pro Street attitude.
This 1980 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Restomod takes the unmistakable attitude of the second-generation Trans Am and backs it with a substantially upgraded Pontiac powerplant. Showing approximately 60,026 total miles, this example is powered by a 461ci Pontiac stroker V8 with only about 1,200 miles on the current engine, paired with a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission. Holley Sniper 2 electronic fuel injection, aluminum cylinder heads, an aluminum intake manifold, and a functional shaker hood scoop give the drivetrain a serious enthusiast-focused character while preserving the visual identity that made the Trans Am such an icon. Finished in Blue over a Blue interior and accented by traditional Trans Am graphics and badging, this build blends late-1970s muscle-car presence with a far more capable modernized engine combination.
The 1997 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Convertible represents the final era of Pontiac’s legendary fourth-generation F-body platform, combining classic American V8 performance with open-air cruising capability. This example has traveled 103,930 miles and is finished in Bright Silver with a Dark Pewter interior and Black convertible soft top. Equipped with the desirable WS6 Ram Air Performance Package, this Trans Am benefits from the iconic functional Ram Air induction system, high-performance upgrades, and aggressive styling cues that helped define the performance image of Pontiac’s flagship sports car. With its LT1 V8, rear-wheel-drive layout, and limited-production convertible configuration, this Trans Am remains an enthusiast-focused piece of Pontiac performance history.
The 2009 Pontiac G8 GT Sedan is one of the more memorable performance sedans from Pontiac’s final years, combining understated four-door styling with the kind of rear-wheel-drive V8 layout enthusiasts still seek today. Showing approximately 50,459 miles, this example is finished in Liquid Red over an Onyx/Red leather interior and is equipped with both the Premium Package and Sport Package. Its 6.0L naturally aspirated V8, 6-speed automatic transmission, 19-inch machine-faced wheels, and performance-oriented interior details give it a strong blend of everyday usability and muscle-car character.
The 2009 Pontiac Solstice Coupe is one of the more distinctive enthusiast cars to emerge from Pontiac’s final years, combining the compact proportions of the Solstice roadster with a fixed-roof coupe body and removable targa-style roof panel. Showing approximately 67,000 miles, this example is finished in Victory Red over an Ebony interior with two-tone red and black seating. Its naturally aspirated 2.4L Ecotec four-cylinder engine is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive, giving it the simple, lightweight sports-car formula that made the Solstice appealing when new. The coupe body style is also far less common than the roadster, adding an extra layer of interest for collectors and Pontiac enthusiasts.
