Default 1969 Firebird

What is the market like for these cars. Stumbled across a 69, 400, 4 speed car. Atleast that's what it looks like. Should I get a PHS report on the car if I got the vin. Which I did.

From what I've gathered on 68 Firebird 400's, good 68's are in the high teens, to $30K for what appeared (in the pics anyway)to be a top notch car.

I just recently purchased the PHS documents on my 68 400 I had in the mid 70's. It was cool seeing the options on the car that I remember the car having!

Depends on which 400, as there were 3. Ram Airs of any stripe are very rare. Does the car have AC?

Sold a very nice #'s matching '68 400 auto car for $23k last fall. Run the PHS, numbers matching car w/4sp would be a nice find. If it's a Ram Air car, run don't walk and buy this car...

Thanks John for your help! However. The wild goose chase is over. PHS told report said it was a 250 std. engine car. One of 33,379 built. I think I'll pass.

Man...that was fast! .
Sure is nice w/ the PHS documents available...no wonder crooks prefer to fraud the Chevys! .

Anyone know what the true story is w/ the Buick GSX documents...I read online a while back someone had uncovered the shipping paperwork on some or all of these? .

And I'm not confusing the 'story' of the US Chevy documents supposedly becoming available...which I don't think will ever happen! . I'd expect it's a BS story started to scare off some fraud jobs and if there was any truth to it, perhaps documents of a small range of Vins could be found but certainly not anything like PHS or Canadian car services ever becoming available? .

They have a fax back program that gets you the info back in a couple of hours or so.
