If you’re a huge fan, and you have beaucoup bucks, then you might consider buying these: Pontiac Firebird VIN #001 and #002. The 1967 muscle cars are right now for only a quarter million dollars plus roughly a new base V8 Camaro.

That’s the Buy It Now price; bids as of 6 P.M. on May 11 are up to $185,000, though that’s below the reserve. So if you want these two, you’ll have to shell out. And you can’t just buy one individually, as the cars are being sold as a pair, with the listing saying the vehicles have been together essentially since GM sold them over 50 years ago.

The first one is a red convertible with a 326 cubic-inch V8 mated to a three-speed automatic. It’s got power brakes and steering, as well as cruise control and a floor-mounted clock, the listing says.

As for VIN #002, it’s a silver four-speed manual coupe with a 326 high output motor, power brakes, power steering, a tilt column, and a hood-mounted tachometer.

You may recognize these cars from the show Fast N’ Loud, which follows the builds of a Dallas, Texas-based shop called Gas Monkey Garage. That team discovered the two cars in rather sad shape back in 2014, but restored them to apparent perfection. The cars were up for auction at , but the reserve wasn’t met.

So if you missed out then, now’s your chance.

These are listed as the first two productionFirebirds. There were undoubtedly some preproduction models built earlier.

At $19,895, Could This 1980 Pontiac Trans Am Turbo Indy Edition Still Set The Pace?
At $19,895, Could This 1980 Pontiac Trans Am Turbo Indy Edition Still Set The Pace?
What’s missing from the present day are expressive auto decals like the ‘screaming chicken’ worn by today’s Trans Am. Would you pay the price to be so expressive? Or, are you chicken? A lot of consternation was thrown at Friday’s . Not for its $25,000 price mind you, that easily...

At $25,000, Might This Lingenfelter-Lunged 2003 Chevy Corvette Z06 Make You Go Zowie?
At $25,000, Might This Lingenfelter-Lunged 2003 Chevy Corvette Z06 Make You Go Zowie?
The claim made for today’s is that it puts out over five hundred ponies at the wheels. That’s by way of a Lingenfelter supercharger and a lot of other work, but is it enough to lift twenty-five grand from your wallet? ‘Begrudgingly given’ is how I would describe the 66-percent...
