 :iagree:

Seems like that "Hawks beak" front end has always reduced the classic firebirds to sleeper status in the hobby. Those bodies look so d*mn hot from every angle but head on -- Like a curvaceous bod going by and when you get around in front you find she has a beak like Getty Lee.     Nice ride for a decent price, yup.

unless he upgraded it to hydraulics, that 455 4/spd combo will turn your left leg into a tree trunk. I like this one, looks really nice. Firechickens don;t get enough love IMO

They share every body panel with the Camaro except for the grille hood & taillights , the suspensions were tuned by different engineers though & the firebird always handled far better . Penske / Donohue had a difficult time getting the Trans Am Camaros to go around corners in the late 60s
