1981 PONTIAC FIREBIRD FORMULA

This Firebird Formula has 33,267 original miles (the title reads mileage exempt) and features a turbo 4.9-liter V8 engine with hood-mounted light-up boost gauges. The hood-mounted light-up boost gauges were optional in 1980 and standard in 1981. It had a frame-on restoration, with little to no bodywork needed, and had one repaint, with it sanded down to the metal, primed, painted in its original Charcoal Gray and clear coated. The exterior features Soft Ray glass, tinted removable hatch roof, chrome door edge guards, body side moldings, black windshield trim and black headlight bezels. The car was special-ordered with blue velour interior and carpet, all of which was replaced with new, including the headliner and any needed worn trim. It was purchased in Northwood, ND, at Krabbenhoft Chevrolet-Pontiac-Buick and owned by the same family since its delivery date in April 1981. It’......s powered by its matching-numbers 4.9-liter, 301ci V8 4-barrel turbo engine, featuring turbo monitor boost gauges, and has a 3-speed automatic transmission with a limited-slip differential. The original AM/FM cassette radio was replaced with a Pontiac Nostalgia AM/FM iPod capable radio with a remote, Alpine mini amplifier and four new Altec speakers, and a new power antenna was installed. You can cruise in comfort with factory air conditioning, tilt steering wheel, cruise control, power windows, power door locks and 4-wheel power disc brakes. The original rims are back on the car. They were changed out for chrome wheels when the car was new and put in storage. They are wrapped in Firestone raised-white-letter tires with less than 1,500 miles. The belts, hoses, weatherstripping, shocks, battery and exhaust are all in near-new condition. The engine valve cover gaskets and engine rear seal have been recently replaced. It also features Rally gauges, clock, electric rear-window defroster. Almost all restoration receipts, PHS paperwork, copy of the Window Sticker and original bank purchase agreement are included.
