Re: Any Firebirds in San Diego?

I don't come on here much often, but I'm in San Diego. I have an 82 Trans Am that is rusting away, but I did just pick up a running 84 Firebird I'm doing some basic maintenance on.

Re: Looking to network and meet new friends

I'm in San Diego. I own an 82 Trans Am that's rusting away somewhere. When all this is over I'd be happy to get together and talk shop. Take care, be safe.
