Firebird Exterior Styling
 
 
Notable Features at Front and Side:
° The long, smoothly tapered hood and bold, full-width peripheral front bumper lend distinctive personality to Firebird's powerful sports-car appearance.
° Bright chrome moldings surround the fully recessed, 3-dimensional grill and horizontally mounted dual headlamps.
° Functional wraparound side marker lights combine with parking lamps to provide positive side identification at front.
° Longer, lower roofline appearance and spacious window effect is realized with the elimination of the door-control vent windows.
° The spirited sports-car styling theme is further accented by six decorative, vertical louvers, which are depressed in the front of both rear fenders and accented with bright metal.
° Bright metal rocker panel moldings protect and dignify the lower body sides.
° The hardtop coupes boast attractive bright roof drip scalp moldings.
° The Pontiac nameplate, in handsome block letters, is mounted on the face of the left front grille.
 
Notable Features at Rear:
° The short, sporty rear deck and smartly styled, full-width wraparound rear bumper underscore Firebird's low, wide, rear-end treatment.
° Deftly styled tail lamps, stacked two on a side, feature long, chrome-edged, horizontal lenses and integral backup lights.
° Attractive "Vee" Crest side marker lights at rear of both rear fenders operate on the tail lamp circuit for assured rear-side lighting.
