General Motors entered the Pony Car wars in 1967 with two new personal sports cars that shared the same platform - Chevrolet's Camaro and its more upmarket cousin, the Pontiac Firebird, launched a few months later
Pitched at an altogether more luxury-oriented market, the Firebird had sculpted 'coke bottle' styling like the Camaro but with a distinctive corporate 'twin grille' front end
This stunning Firebird Convertible was being imported to the UK in 1974
It was subject to a full restoration in the early 2000s over a five-year period returning it to its original specification and colour
Superbly presented in Winward Blue with matching blue Vinyl and sitting on American Racing alloys with Galaxy Radials
Powered by a 5, 731cc, 350ci V8 producing 265bhp coupled to a 4-speed manual box
Supplied with documentation supporting restoration, as well as period records on the cars build-spec, option list and historic advertising brochures
