Sad to say the recession bought it cheap at about 40K. My 67 400 Convertible had every factory option except for Tilt wheel, fold down rear seat and the front disc brake option = which was somewhat understandable in 67 as there were still some skeptics out there. Cool stuff! I wonder if this has the ultra rare visor vanity mirrors? Not sure if this had the remote driver door mirror? It has the Arrowhead on the front bumper which was for the “Sport Options Group” which I believe were a lot of little vanity items like the grab handle over the glove box, some trim items, the deluxe interior & the high back bucket seats with the head rests. This one missing the power window option and the fold down rear seat. always blows me away that with this many options they still don’t get all of the options. Pretty rare option – Pontiacs alternative to a POSI. I’ve had a couple 69s and a 67 400 convertible….I had the exhaust redone on the 67 with the Safe T Track differential and the shop took the traction bar off for clearance of my new exhaust and THREW IT AWAY !!!! I said you better get to dumpster diving and thank GOD they found it. Good luck finding that factory traction bar. I am pretty sure this car came with mono leaf rear springs which often sag and are replaced by multi-leaf springs. It is a shame that someone removed the single factory traction bar from the drive wheel which makes it a Safe-T-Track rear end. Where do you think bidding will end on this ’69 Big Daddy ‘bird?

Interestingly, while the all-new 1970 Firebird got a fresh design on the front end, this ’69 Firebird nose theme found a home on the 1970 Pontiac’s LeMans and GTO (some details from .)
