It might not be a real 400 Firebird who knows ? Could be a non - matching # car ? The trunk looks patched, maybe as rust issues ? Carl go look at it ... If you want.

Rat Boy would say Finally an appraiser in touch with reality and a seller who actually wants to sell the car.

Looks perfect for a 302 Trans Am tribute, yank that American engine and put in a proper Canadian engine.

Rat Boy is pointing out the obvious. Integral components of a Ram Air car are intake and Carburetor both of which are absent on this car. Seller doesn' really know what he's writting as he said in ad " I do not know alot about the car".

It's a Firebird 400 obv.

If it was a real 400 ram air car his phone would be ringing of the hook at that price. They only made 413 ram air I cars 92 were auto. If it was a ram ar II car they only made 110 and 12 were auto's. Car would be be more fun with a four speed. But still looks good for that price.

Son probably saw "Ram Air" on the air cleaner sticker and posted it as such. No harm. He just doesn't know anything about old cars.

Maybe Uncle Bernie might know this person or possibly about the car? 'Tis a pretty good looking unit for the money being asked.

Thats a nice looking bird there, looks like the shifter is a B&M Quick Silver Ratchet Shifter. 4 speed would be sweet

 I think the console is stock - but he's grafted an after market shifter into it.  Hopefully he didn't destroy the original console...

 

$11k seems pretty reasonable.  Yes, it looks like there could be some issues so you never know without seeing it in person, but it looks pretty solid.  If the body is solid, I think $11k is a good buy.  If I had room and wasn't planning a move and had $11k extra, man, the fun I could have.  A Pontiac 400 in a little Firebird?  The one I had in my 65 GTO (a lifetime ago) was amazing.

There are definitely some 'issues'.  (What's with the ball valve on the heater line?  Maybe a leaky heater core?)

If it was a 68 Camaro, it'd be double the price.

At that price we shouldn't be picking it apart ; we should be congratulating the new owner.
