1977 Pontiac Firebird

1977 PONTIAC FIREBIRD FORMULA144,164 MILES. CAR HAS BEEN REPAINTED SOMEWHERE DOWN THE ROAD BUT IS RED. I BOUGHT THIS CAR YEARS AGO WITH INTENTIONS OF GETTING IT RESTORED OR MAYBE CLONED INTO A TRANS AM, BUT NEVER HAD THE MONEY TO DO SO AND AFTER MY HUSBAND AND I DIVORCED I SOLD IT. I GOT LUCKY AND ACTUALLY BOUGHT IT BACK LAST YEAR TO TRY AGAIN, BUT I GAVE UP ON HAVING THE EXTRA MONEY BECAUSE NOW I WOULD HAVE TO HIRE SOMEBODY TO DO THE WORK SO I AM SELLING MY BABY WHICH I CALL "RED". CAR HAS BEEN FEMALE DRIVEN BY MYSELF FOR AS LONG AS I'VE OWNED IT. MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION ARE IN GOOD CONDITION. THE MAN I PURCHASED IT FROM IN 2012 TOLD ME THE MOTOR HAD BEEN REBUILT AND THE TRANSMISSION, BUT I CAN'T GUARANTEE THAT BECAUSE I HAVE NO PROOF. I JUST KNOW IT RUNS GOOD...COLD COLLARED TO START AT TIMES WHEN IT IS NOT DRIVEN FOR AWHILE. CAR HAS A 8 CYLINDER 400 PONTIAC ENGINE AND TRANS. I WAS DRIVING BACK AND FORTH TO WORK UNTIL THE BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON. GOT A CALIPER PUT ON RIGHT SIDE AND THE MAN THAT PUT IT ON CAR SAID IT WAS NOT GETTING FLUID TO IT, AND SAID THE BRAKE LINE WAS EITHER STOPPED UP OR RUSTED THROUGH. IT HAS BEEN SITTING IN MY YARD NOW FOR MONTHS. I START THE CAR EVERY FEW WEEKS AND LET IT RUN. IT IS BY NO MEANS PERFECT AS FAR AS THE BODY GOES. LIKE I STATED IT IS A PROJECT CAR. SEATS IN BACK APPEAR ORIGINAL, BUT RED STARTING SHOWING THROUGH ON THE RIGHT SIDE SO I THINK THEY WERE PAINTED BLACK. FRONT SEATS ARE COVERED BUT LOOK DECENT. DOOR PANELS NEED REPLACED, NEEDS REWIRED AT SOME TIME, POWER WINDOWS TAKE THEIR SPELLS AT WORKING, NO AIR CONDITIONING, DASH AND INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT WORK. FLOOR PANS IN FRONT AND BACK HAVE BEEN REPLACED AT SOME TIME BUT COULD USE AGAIN. TRUNK PAN HAS RUSTED THROUGH ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE BY REAR FENDER NEEDS REPLACED. I HAVE TWO DOORS THAT CAME OFF A BLUE FIREBIRD THAT WILL FIT THE CAR THAT ARE MANUAL TYPE WITH THE GLASS THAT GO WITH THE SALE...RUST FREE.THE WHEELS ARE THE ORIGINAL RALLY WHEELS THAT HAVE BEEN RESTORED AT SOME TIME BEFORE I GOT THE CAR. TIRES ARE IN REALLY GOOD SHAPE. HAS ORIGINAL GM RADIO CASSETTE BUT NOT SURE IF IT WORKS ANYMORE. I TOOK THE SPEAKERS OUT OF THE DOORS BECAUSE THE PANELS WERE FALLING APART. WORKED WHEN I TOOK THE SPEAKERS OUT. IT HAS NO TYPE OF BRAKES FOR STOPPING THE CAR SO CAR WILL HAVE TO BE TOWED. ALL I CAN TELL YOU IS THE CAR RUNS GOOD AND DOES NOT BURN ANY OIL. SPEEDOMETER WORKS, CLOCK WORKS, AND HAS ANOTHER OIL PRESSURE GAUGE AND TEMP GAUGE THAT DO WORK UNDER THE RADIO. ONES ON DASH DO NOT WORK. I DID PUT A NEW RADIATOR AND MASTER CYLINDER ON IT IN 2012. A NICE PROJECT CAR. DRIVE IT WHILE YOU FIX IT UP. MESSAGE ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS. I AM STARTING CAR AT A LOW PRICE, AND WILL NOT GO ANY LOWER SO PLEASE DON'T ASK. CAR SOLD AS IS. MESSAGE ME THROUGH EBAY WITH ANY QUESTIONS.
