Galt, California

I'm selling my 67 Firebird convertible deluxe interior hood tach this is a sprint from my research they only made 1200 car has 24,000 original miles car is in good condition surface rust on the under carriage no major rust that I can see floors are solid runs and drives any questions please contact nate 916 607 0416 When the optional Sprint version was ordered, the upgrades included a high-lift/longer-duration cam, dual valve springs, a unique harmonic balancer, dual exhaust manifolds, high-flow intake manifold, 20:1 manual steering gear box, high-performance suspension and a V-8 clutch disc and pressure plate. Additional Sprint options included a four-speed manual transmission with Sprint gearing plus a 3.55 Safe-T-Track rear end. DeLorean introduced the OHC six in both Pontiac’s Tempest and LeMans models (except station wagons) in ’66. In its original base configuration, the 9.0:1-compression engine was equipped with a Mono-Jet carburetor and rated at 165 hp. When ordered with the optional Sprint package, compression increased to 10.5:1 and a Rochester Quadra-Jet carburetor replaced the single-throat base unit. Horsepower also increased to 207. In this enhanced format, a Tempest or Lemans Sprint model was capable of running the quarter mile in mid-16 seconds at more than 80 mph. And for those who are wondering, Marty McFly (portrayed by Michael J. Fox) needed to achieve 88 mph over a quarter-mile in his Flux Capacitor-powered DeLorean to achieve time travel in “Back to The Future.” And that was 20 years after Pontiac introduced the Sprint. It was a natural evolution in 1967 when Pontiac launched its sporty Firebird that one of the five models offered would be a Sprint. Both Tempest and LeMans models (except wagons) also retained their Sprint option status. Available in both soft- and hardtop versions, the OHC six-equipped Firebird could be ordered in base (Mono-Jet carb, 230-cid/165-hp) or $116.16 optional Sprint versions. For ’67, the Sprint OHC six had its horsepower rating increased from 207 to 215. The Sprint package — which included a three-speed floor-shift manual transmission, Rochester Quadra-Jet carb, body sill moldings with “OHC-6 Sprint” emblems and F70x14 black sidewall tires — added 55 lbs. to a Firebird’s curb weight. For $14.74 more, Rally stripes could be ordered. An additional $42 would add a hood-mounted tach. A four-speed manual gearbox was also optional for $184, and when so-equipped, a Firebird Sprint could traverse the quarter mile in mid-17 seconds at 80 mph. - See more at: http://www.oldcarsweekly.com/features/bill-krause-1967-firebird-sprint#sthash.LIIwSZIh.dpuf
