Following Ford and Chevrolet, Pontiac entered the pony car market in 1967 and came up with one of the best and most successful muscle cars ever produced. Though based on the Camaro chassis, the Firebird offered unique features and high performance, and over its nearly 40 years of production it continued to wow drivers--as it does today. This book details the Firebird’s long and illustrious career. With high-quality, detailed color photographs of some of the finer models--both originals and faithful restorations--the book is at once a unique history and a restoration guide to all four generations of the Firebird. Pictures and text profile the correct parts, finishes, options, and trim pieces for various models. The book also covers the vehicle’s wide variety of engine options, along with all special editions and model variations from the Firebird’s introduction in 1967 to the final model in 2002.

In the mid-1960s, Ford Motor Company took the automotive world by storm with the release of its new "pony car," the Ford Mustang. It was the right car for the right time, and it caught General Motors by surprise. One year later, after seeing the Mustang's enormous sales success, General Motors announced the development of its own pony-car platform, code-named "Panther," to compete with the tremendously popular Mustang. And what a competition it became. Chevrolet Camaros and Pontiac Firebirds hit the market as 1967 models, and the world clamored for more of these new Mustang killers. These F-Body cars became some of the most popular enthusiast cars of all time. In The Definitive Firebird & Trans Am Guide 1967-1969, Pontiac expert and historian Rocky Rotella examines each production year of the first generation of Firebirds. Production figures, option codes, running changes, model year changes and variances, rarity, collectability, interviews with engineers, and more are thoroughly covered in what is sure to become the ultimate Firebird reference book. Complementing the detail and year-by-year analysis is a combination of archival photography from the launch of these cars and beautiful color photos of original and restored examples. Whether you are into the first generation of F-Body convertibles, Formula 400 performance models, the special overhead cam Sprint 6s, or even the first Trans Ams of 1969, this book tells the entire story of these immensely popular cars. It is an excellent addition to any pony car, muscle car, or any enthusiast's library.

Learn how to repair and restore every facet of Pontiac's fabulous first-generation Firebirds with this hands-on restoration guide. The Firebird was Pontiac's entry into the 2+2 pony car market that was pioneered by Ford's Mustang in 1964. Because of its rapid development cycle, the Firebird was based on the same platform as Chevrolet's Camaro but was intended to have a slightly upscale market position to compete against Mercury's Mustang clone, the Cougar. While the Firebird and Camaro share many components, the Firebird debuted in February 1968 (five months after the Camaro), and Pontiac's stylists and engineers made good use of the extra time, instilling the Firebird with numerous upgrades and improvements compared to its Chevy sibling, including five Pontiac engine options, specific suspension tuning, and of course Firebird's unique front and rear treatments and interior accoutrements. How to Restore Your Pontiac Firebird: 1967-1969guides you through the process of selecting and inspecting a Firebird, takes you step by step through the restoration of each major aspect of the car (body and paint, interior, engine, transmission, rear axle assembly, suspension, brakes, electrical, and more), including the elements that make the Firebird unique compared to the Camaro. Jason Scott, a seasoned author and former editor of Muscle Car Review and Pontiac enthusiast magazines, shows you detailed do-it-yourself processes and techniques to remove, restore, and reinstall original components, as well as how to make stock-appearing or stealthy upgrades that improve performance, handling, reliability, and convenience. If you're rebuilding a 1967-1969 Firebird, this is your go-to guide for everything from planning your restoration to a constant companion in the garage that explains the nuts of bolts of taking your Firebird apart and putting it back together better than ever.
