This first year Firebird is in remarkable untouched original condition.My father in-law purchased it new and he was fanatical about taking care of it.He never parked it in the sunshine without being covered.In fact, it’s been garaged and covered since new.Even the doors shut amazingly solid as when new.
This Firebird is originally equipped with the DeLorean designed Sprint high output Sprint 6-cylinder engine.Numerous technical advances were included in the Sprint model that increased power.This Firebird Sprint was ordered with factory rally wheels, manual 4-speed, and hood mounted tachometer.Everything still works, even the original air conditioning and AM radio. However, the heater fan squeaks briefly when first turned on and the oil pan gasket seeps on one side.It has remarkable original paint, interior, and original carpet all showing no signs of wear as in new condition.
Since new, the Firebird has been treated as a collector car.
