In this episode, we are thrilled to feature an incredible 1968 Pontiac Firebird, owned by our good friend Spiro. Pontiac has always had a special place in Spiro’s family history, with his father owning a 1968 Parisienne. However, Spiro opted for the sleeker, faster Firebird that you see here.
Spiro has owned this stunning car for around 12 years, dedicating six of those years to a meticulous ground-up restoration. The result? An immaculate bright red beauty with satin Centerline wheels that give this Firebird a timeless and iconic look.
Under the Trans Am style hood, you'll find a powerful 383 small block engine, delivering an impressive 530 horsepower. This beast is mated to a 4800 RPM TCE converter and a robust Turbo 350 transmission, sending power to a four-linked, 3.7 geared 9-inch rear end. With a Holley Sniper EFI system, this Firebird boasts both high performance and reliable drivability.
The interior is a perfect blend of original Firebird design and Spiro’s unique personal touches, making it truly one-of-a-kind.
Join us as we dive into the details and enjoy the sights and sounds of this remarkable 1968 Firebird.
