Triple Blue '67 Firebird Sprint Convertible

Neat car. 67 Chevelle and Impala verts with a blue top had the top frame painted Nantucket blue. Did that also apply to Camaros? And Firebirds? This one's frame is black.

Agree, neat car. I don't really care for the prominent nose on the Firebirds, but otherwise, it is a very cool in that color combo.
Yes, it's a Ford 3 speed trans. It is cast iron and if it were a 4 speed it would be a Muncie. The Saginaw plant burned in that time frame and ran out of 3 speed transmissions. I had a '69 GTO with the Ford 3 speed.
Does appear to be the HO Sprint...4 barrel intake with aftermarket Holley and dual exhaust.
I agree the ask is rather strong for a 6 but as clean as it appears and in that color, he might get close. Personally, I'd be in the 25-28k range, but I'm cheap...

First photo is a Restored 1964 GTO Convertible in Blue, Blue, Blue.
Blue top frame.

Second photo is a Survivor 1966 GTO Convertible in B,B,B.
Also Blue top frame.

I have heard of a Tan color top frame, but no evidence.

I really don’t understand why they did this, just make them all Black.
White convertible tops did not have White top frames, they were Black, weird.

Thanks! I can only speak for Chevelles and Impalas, but yes tan tops in those cars had a Sierra Tan (Fawn) painted top frame. I own an original 65 that way.
