494-Powered 1971 Pontiac Firebird Formula 400

This distinctive 1971 Pontiac Firebird Formula 400 is powered by a robust 400 cubic inch V8 engine that produces an impressive power output of 250 horsepower. Manufactured in the heart of the muscle car era, this iconic American vehicle retains its original design and character from the early 1970s. The Firebird Formula 400 is renowned for its sporty yet elegant appearance, featuring a lengthy hood to accommodate its powerful engine, distinctive chrome dual headlights and taillights, and classic Pontiac "pony" emblems adorning its front grill and rear decklid. Having spent the majority of its life in Rancho Cordova, California, this vehicle has benefited from extensive refurbishment under its current ownership. A comprehensive refresh was undertaken between 2013 and 2014, including repainting the body and subframe, reinstalling a four-point roll bar, installing Detroit Speed weld-in subframe connectors for enhanced stability, replacing window glass components, and comprehensively rewiring the car to rectify any electrical issues accumulated over time. The interior upholds the era's iconic design with its original vinyl bucket seats and center console, further complemented by a three-spoke steering wheel and sporty instrumentation. This Firebird Formula 400 offers an exciting driving experience due to the careful restoration of its driveline, which includes a four-speed manual transmission connected directly to the powerful engine, delivering raw American horsepower through the rear wheels. The current listing for this unique classic is available on bringatrailer.com, with detailed images provided to showcase the vehicle's restored condition and notable modifications made during ownership.
