IM CURIOUS AS TO HOW MUCH A RESTORED 78 FIREBIRD FORMULA WITH A 455 ENGINE IN IT WOULD BE WORTH. AND WOULD IT BE WORTH MY TIME TO RESTORE IT OR WOULD I BE BETTER OFF DOING WHAT I PLANNED ALREADY AND STRIP IT AND UPGRADE EVERYTHING TO A DRAG OR DRIFT SERIES CAR. AND AT THAT THIS IS MY FIRST CAR (GOTTA LOVE THEM PONTIACS!) I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS BEST FOR THIS CAR. I'VE BEEN TOLD THIS CAR IS A RARE ONE AND IF IT IS I WANT TO HOLD ON TO IT. I HAVENT SEEN MANY IN HPP SO NEED TO KNOW WHATS GOING ON.
I READ HPP ADAMANTLY AND KNOW THAT IM GOING TO HAVE AT LEAST ONE PONTIAC IN MY GARAGE AT ALL TIMES. SO I JUST BE HAPPY WITHOUT REGRETS. ANY SUGGESTIONS ON THE PRICE WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED THANKS!!! EXIT  

I would look into getting some documentation on your car before doing anything to it.  The biggest suspicion I have is the 455......in a 78?  I'm not aware of any that had 455s.  My understanding is Pontiac stopped making them in 76 and a couple may have made it into the 77 model year, but I've never heard of any in 78.  

Look into that before you start spending your money.  

1975 was the last 455 run, so limited this magazine cant find one.  

There was a some 455's in 76
