1968 Pontiac Firebird Sport Coupe | 50,125 Original Miles | Protect-O-Plate & Original Paperwork
This 1968 Pontiac Firebird Sport Coupe is the kind of classic that collectors look for because the story is still intact. With 50,125 original miles, full documentation, Protect-O-Plate, original purchase paperwork, maintenance records, and original keys, this Firebird has the kind of provenance that helps separate a true survivor-style car from a simply restored example.
Finished in Solar Red with a black factory vinyl top and black vinyl bucket seat interior, this Firebird retains a highly original presentation. The notes describe it as having had one repaint, while preserving the factory vinyl top, original interior, and original major components. Aside from normal service items including the battery, tires, and gas tank, this is presented as an exceptionally original “time capsule” example.
Power comes from the original Pontiac 350 V8, factory rated at 265 horsepower, paired with the original automatic transmission and drivetrain. The notes list the engine code as YJ, consistent with the documented factory drivetrain information provided. This Firebird was assembled during the second week of May at the Lordstown, Ohio plant and is noted as the 6,173rd car built.
Factory equipment includes tilt steering, front shoulder strap seatbelts, power steering, power brakes, Soft Ray glass for the windows and windshield, and custom pedal trim plates. Between the original drivetrain, documented history, preserved interior, factory colors, and supporting paperwork, this 1968 Firebird stands as a strong collector-grade archive piece with real originality and character.
