Rockford Files 1977 Firebird Formula Tribute, For Sale
A friend of mine named Dean, is selling this beautiful 1977 Rockford Files Tribute Firebird. It was born a Firebird Formula, Dean purchased it in April of 2017 and restored it to an Esprit Rockford Files Tribute Model in 2018, with a new hood, trunk lid and badging. He bought the car from the original owner in Northern Minnesota, who was storing it in his parent's barn. It was originally Brentwood Brown. It had literally no rust on it making restoration very easy.
An Appraisal was done by Ron Pittman-Certified IAAA in 2019, scored 100%. See Attachment below.
In total, Dean has $36,222 invested in the Car, but he would consider any reasonable offer.
The Tan Leather interior is original and was in beautiful condition, except a 3" separation at the beading of the driver's seat which was repaired by Rigg's Brothers Auto Interiors. Dean replaced the Doe Skin carpeting. Need to replace A/C Fan Resistor (Have new Part). Has 2 slow oil leaks from sitting, will fix or deduct repair cost off sale price.
