This is perhaps the most unexpected rescue Firebird I've seen. Manual steering, ram air pans, ram air long branch manifolds, and a 389 engine. It's missing the cooling fillers but most other clues are there. Either this is a car that someone swapped all the Ram Air 1 parts onto or it's an early RA1 car. It would be worth getting the Pontiac Historical packet on it to see if it is a factory Ram Air car because of its obvious value. Much less the fact you bought 2 cars at once that have the super rare long branch manifolds! This would indicate a possibility of the other car being a factory 400HO car. Also rare. The motivational laps at the end were pure joy, nice work fella!
Y’all do what you want to do. This car is cool anyway it’s built. Could see that 400 all done up with a giant blower in the hearse. Or go plum crazy in put a 460 in the hearse lol. God Bless y’all!!
Those gaskets are for later model heads.some people cut the middle part off the gasket and cover that square hole with aluminum from soda can.as a performance mod.
Looks like 092 heads from a 1966 389 on the 4 speed engine. Long branch manifolds on both cars and the ram air pans on the auto car are worth some coin.
19:49 mark..looks like ram air exhaust manifolds & oil filter housing....motor is wrong color, but you may want to check the numbers and see what you got there..

She’s a keeper, people are gonna love her. 400 4 speed kinda rare.
Make her solid and safe. Just the fact she restarted after all that says a good bit
Lookin forword to seeing that car again!
Absolutely LOVE your channel! It's awesome a Christian couple enjoys life! You are a perfect match!!!!!!!
I had a very clean 1968 similar car 4 spd /400... I sold mine to some guy from New Zealand the car was shipped there.
I’m impressed !! I didn’t think that old motor would run half that good. Way to go on getting another one running again.
love those rims they are perfect for the car.
There ain't nothing like a resurrection!
New to your channel. Loving the Firebirds

Now that’s motivation my son
great video.fix the floors and around the windows and drive it.if the motor blows up put another small block in it.
I like it
Wrong intake gaskets..

This was my dads car 🥺🙏🏻
Mortske says it's never the coil though. Lol.
did u sale ?
I'm curious is that a Ram air motor?
That's what I was wondering, you can always sell those exhaust manifolds for some spending cash! Very cool car
