On a regular basis, the Thunder Bay Museum raffles off a classic car with proceeds going directly towards helping with the operation of the museum. The Thunder Bay Museum has always purchased its raffle cars, and has not acquired any via donation. However, should someone wish to explore the possibility of donating a car for a future raffle, please contact the Museum’s Executive Director.
Congratulations <WINNER NAME> of <WINNER LOCATION> on winning the Thunder Bay Museum’s 2024 Classic Car Raffle. Enjoy your 1969 Pontiac Firebird!
2024 Classic Car Raffle
Prize: 1969 Pontiac Firebird, professionally appraised at $46,500.00
Draw Date: 6 September 2024
The second-generation Pontiac Firebird was manufactured by General Motors. Announcing a Pontiac styling trend, the Firebird’s bumpers were integrated into the design of the front end, giving it a more streamlined look than the Camaro at the time. In 1969, the design of the Firebird was updated to “Trans Am performance”.
This original, automatic 1969 Pontiac Firebird 2-door hardtop sport coupe has had a recent professional restoration to all components and has been reconditioned to a very high show car quality.
