![]() ![]() Regular, diabetic, vegetarian, kosher, puree and renal-support meals are available. Qualifying seniors receive 10 easy-to-prepare, packaged, frozen meals at no extra cost. Many vehicles, including this week’s Riley Kestrel (I love “airline” art deco British styling) and Rover SD1, are on my “I’d love to have one of those!” lists and therefore lead to conversations around the dinner table.One such program is Humana Well Dine, which delivers nutritious meals to hospitals, care facilities and individual homes for qualifying Medicare members. Jeff Lavery and Scotty Gilbertson have both featured and purchased vehicles, and of course, Jesse and Josh buy and feature stuff all the time. ![]() I try to acquire ANY front-engined Fiberfab Jamaican we feature, so far unsuccessfully. In the past, I have been “just” outbid on numerous write-up vehicles, including a Willys pickup, Jaguar S-Type, a Jensen Interceptor, and numerous Triumphs. I do really like this Firebird but it’s way out of my automotive budget at the moment. In both cases, I invited readers to bid against me in my write-up. I’ve purchased two that I have written up, a 1987 Lister-Jaguar XJS and a 1993 Buick Roadmaster wagon here and here (both wonderful cars). Mike, it’s a regular thing, at least in my household. Be sure and let us know if one of you buys this great Firebird! The 400 HO engine has been completely rebuilt by a race engine shop and the list of parts used is quite impressive. Perhaps take the aftermarket speaker grills down a bit with some flat black paint - but that’s being really picky.Īlthough the engine is not a numbers-matching one, unless you are competing at the national concours level does it really matter (aside from valuation)? If I had a car this pretty I’d be driving it every nice day. More importantly, there is a distinct lack of the iron oxide I’m used to seeing on this generation of Firebird/Camaro. While not being completely stock, the additions could be reversed if you wanted to (I wouldn’t) and appear to be executed well. The seller gushes about the condition of his Firebird and I can see why after looking at the pictures. to send us this tip and have me thinking about how nice it would be to own this GM drop-top! The hood-mounted tachometer was a $63.19 option in 1969! Maybe it’s not as practical as a dash-mounted one, but it’s way cooler! While I’m on the subject of cool, it was really cool of reader Larry D. The window sticker illustrates a set of optional equipment that mirrors what I’d want on the car apart from air conditioning of course, there are vendors that could help you add that now. Not only that, but this particular car appears to be in truly exquisite condition. Let me make the case for this car in particular! To begin with, it’s considerably rarer with only 87 400 HO (High Output) manual transmission 1969 Firebird convertibles produced. Perhaps you haven’t considered a first-generation Firebird as Camaros are so much more popular. Surprisingly, this sun-welcoming, rust-free convertible is located in Buffalo, New York. While that may seem pretty steep, I would suggest looking the car over before judging too much. The car is listed for sale here on eBay and has a buy-it-now price of $39,500. This 1969 Pontiac Firebird convertible is the exception to this rule as the owner clearly regrets having to sell it as they pursue their dream of a 1970-73 Trans Am. A lot of cars cross my desk here at the Pittsboro office of Barn Finds, and most of them are listed rather unemotionally, with some amount of details but little to no insights as to the seller’s motivation.
