Used 1968 Pontiac Firebird for sale in La Vergne
Gateway classic cars of Nashville is pleased to offer for sale a 1968 Pontiac Firebird. This beautiful example of the classic pony car is covered in Autumn Bronze with a contrasting black vinyl interior and looks like it is traveling at 125 MPH while it is sitting still. This one owner Firebird for sale was purchased on the 28 day of February 1968 and is still owned by the same couple. 1968 Pontiac Firebirds are becoming harder to find and chances are you have not seen one like this in a long time, if ever! You see when you pop the hood on this 68 Firebird for sale you will not fine the standard small block 350 CID V8 but rather an inline 6 Cylinder with an overhead cam. Doing a little research, I found the following. All Pontiac OHC-6s featured a deep-skirted block and seven main bearings for strength and durability. Forged rods carried cast-aluminum pistons with deeply recessed tops for valve clearance. Large 1.92-inch intake and 1.60-inch exhaust valves were opened via rocker arms. Though intake and exhaust ports were side by side on the same side of the cylinder head, ports were not Siamesed as on some earlier sixes. The cast-aluminum rocker cover included built-in bearings for the camshaft. Displacing 230 cubic inches, the 165-hp OHC-6 had a 9:1 compression ratio and a one-barrel carburetor. With only 4006 of these coupes built in 1968 there are very few left today for those of us that appreciate them. This example had a frame off restoration in the mid 90s and shows as if that happened yesterday. The options for this 1968 Firebird include: Air conditioning, AM/FM radio, Power steering , Seat belts, and Rally wheels.
