I am looking to buy a 1967 convertible firebird with a 326 engine. I am worried that the engine does not make this car a whole. Could you give me any feedback for this car? How much can i pay?

heres one good example, the mustang first came out in the beginning of 1964 and it was conciddered a 1964.5 because the callender year for the 64s was august 63 to august 64. im not trying to blow smoke in your eye.

How can u honestly compare a piece of shit ford to a firebird r u serious? Thats just some dumb shit that the ford company came up with because they weren't smart enough to come out with a normal year like the other auto makers like 1964,1965,1966,1967,1968 get it not like 1964 and a 1/2 what the hell is that anyway. By the way sorry about blowing up

the 67 firebird conv was offered with 3 engines,a 6cyl,the 326 v-8,and a 400 v-8,the most you will find produced was the 326,price you would pay for the car,depends on condition ,originality ,etc,the ones worth the most of course is the 400 convertible.in 68 pontiac did away with the 326,and started putting a 350 in the firebirds,so 67 was the only year you could get a 326 firebird,hope this helps some.

i got my 1968 firebird convertible for 13000 but it needed a little work and had a low compression v-8 in it still working to get it finished and every thing perfect.

What you are looking for is a generation one, I would not worry much about performance more than the look. Not many had bigger engines than generation twos but they do look more refined then the later years that had big blocks in the first place. Plus car auctioneers will have gold for it by looks, convertibles give you bonus points. Anyways chicks dig it. You will pay over $50k cheapest in great presentable shape in an action. Cause it is a convertible and I don't know why that makes it almost twice as expensive as they usually sell for.

the 326 engine was stock for the 67 a step above the straight 6 . did you check to see if it is a matching numbers car? that's always a plus. if you want a 350 or 400 firebird then go with a 68 or just swap motors,you can easily put a bigger engine in place of the 326.

I have a 1967 Firebird Convertible with 94,000 miles on it and was restored in California about ten years ago. This is a no rust car that drives great and will definately turn some heads. Just so happens that I need to thin down the heard. I will sell this car for $23900 and it needs nothing. It's just sitting out there in the car barn with a car cover and a battery maintainer on it.

You are correct in stating Feb/67. I immediately ordered one from the factory and took delivery near the end of May/67 from Calgary Motor Products. Mine was somewhat unique as I did not go high end. It was burgundy with a black convertible top, 326 with 2 bbl carburetor, and a "power glide" transmission with gear shift on steering column. Beige vinyl interior and only power options were the steering and brakes. The factory mistakenly put a spring loaded top as opposed to a power top, which in retrospect worked well as it took only a few seconds to drop it with little effort. When comparing engine size the block of the 326 was considerably larger than the 327 seen in the Camaro of the same year. I believe the 326 was the same American engine seen in the Pontiac LeMans. The list price in Calgary for this car was $4454 and today after all these years, it is the one automobile I regret still not having.

Pontiac numbers did not match in 1967 and only begn matching VINs in 1968, You have to go by production dates and the codes to certify. There were several 326 V8s. One was an HO which included a D series Carter AFB , dual exhaust and twin traction bars.
