Hey strangers...mostly new people. I am looking at building a drag car with a couple of friends. I am searching for a Firebird/TA. Look in midwest regions board. Just want to see if theres anything hiding in someones back yard for the right price...

camrs, good to hear from you again. How's the lemans coming?

I think i have a handle on a 88 formula with a perfectly straight bodyl, but don't think it runs for around $300 in central indiana. I was going to buy it for parts, but i'm doing something drastically different with my formy.


i'll e-mail you when i hear from the guy if you might be interested.

What's up? Yeah that sounds like a deal if the body's good. Email me. You have any pics? I have some pics of the LeMans and the Goat too. I'll see if I can post them.

Heres a couple before it went off to get painted...





It now is sanded down and has a new 1/4 panel on the car. I also have been piecing the 68 together. Looks like a car now!!

Thanks!

Brad-Remember my old engine? The monster engine?? I am going to build another up to its specs, put a TH350, and a 9-inch with 4.88's in it and still be loyal to Pontiacs!!

My friend just got his "monster engine" (My engines clone) done and is about to install it in his 85 TA, just with a little less gear.

Yup, I sold the Camaro minus engine for $500. I lost alot of money, but I want to stay with the Pontiacs now. Hopefully, this Formula will turn out to be still availible.

This has nothing to do with appearance. Use the classifieds to search for project cars.
