Pontiac in the Late 60s:
The 60s were Pontiacs golden years when GTOs, Firebirds, and Trans Ams set the tone for American performance. The Firebird stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the Camaro but brought Pontiacs own muscle-car personality: bold styling, raw performance, and a street presence that couldnt be ignored. This 69 model captures all of that, then dials it up with modern muscle.

Certified LS1 V8 swap strong, reliable, and seriously quick

Dressed in Silver with Black interior timeless and tough look
Discreet high-end Bluetooth sound system crystal clear mids, punchy lows, and premium audio without spoiling the classic vibe

The perfect mix of classic Pontiac style and modern muscle reliability

Its a turn-key classic with modern heartbeat, ready to be enjoyed today.
