1984 H.O. WS6 3.73's I swear it has 29,000miles not 129,000.

 

niceeeee....ehum when was the last time snow hit florida ? jk

 

how are you going to drive off that beach.. your back tires are going to spin !! lol... nice car!!

 

cool, where in Florida you at?

 

FirebirdNYC, I have lived in Mass for 24 years. I am not native to FL. I miss MA often. I don't think the T/A is from FL either! You should see my other 84. He's a M*******.LOL Thanx guys for the nice comments. Actually, he did not spin out on the beach. This was taken on New Symrna Beach. Mike,I live in Titusville. Let's dedicate this post to 82-84 Birds. I want to see your pics. I showed you mine now show me yours!:lala:

 

Woo Hoo! '82-'84 Party!

My '82... R.I.P. Got rear ended May 25th

 

The '83 currently being restored...





Can't find one of my first '82. Red/Black LG4 Auto Hardtop.

Near my house there is an '84 white/black L69 car that looks exactly like yours! It has 53,000 original miles on it! The only differance is it has Turbo Fin wheels and the louvered hood scoop bird.

 

That is one sweet T/A! Is it normal to...Never mind. Wat until tomorrow to tell me the tale. i don't want to cry this late at night.

 

Heres something funny. KITT coming down the street and a white/black 82-84 going up the street.

 

Good luck with the 83! Are you restoring it to stock? I am with this one. I want him to be in concours classes. Total factory T/A. There is a 84 H.O. for sale in my area. The guy wants 950. It is a 5 speed.It is the champagne color. i want to by that and the 85 black T/A that is for sale next to it. The B/F says NO MORE! I'm sorry. The more Ponchos I have, The better. I litterally think he would walk out the door if I bought one or the other:nono: LOL He also says I work on them too much. Is there a medication for this?

 

LOL Why take medication? We need more people like you lol!

The car is going back to 100% original except for the wheels. It originally came with the N89 wheels. Finding them is going to be really hard.

 

Although my other 84 has mods,I highly love the thought of a totally stock third. QIUCK! Find the build sheet! I have the other 84's build sheet. I cried tears of joy when I found that. The vin/body tag is wrong. I had to prove to many people that it was a 84. i pretty much knew all of the options. I was so proud of my Bird knowledge. The only thing I was wrong about was the WS6. With 4discs/3.73/high techs I really thought he had the WS6. He had the WY6 package. I actually had to send a copy of my build sheet to someone over the computer.

 

I already found my build sheet! I gutted the whole interior and it was sitting taped to the floor right under the carpet!

WY6 = WS6. In '84 they changed the name of WS6 to WY6 and WS7 to WY5 for whatever reason.

My '83 has WS6. It only has very very few options. I weighed it and it was 3170.

 

My white 84 says ws6 on the the glove box? Did they change it mid year? The red H.O is sept83. The white H.O. is june84.

 

I don't remember when it was changed but I do remember seeing a Pontiac internal bulletin on it.

 

the red one-"Ta".

 

I'll check my Sevice Bullitin manuals again. this is KARR

 

KARR is a TPI with the 4wheel discs. He is a blast to drive. He currently heeds a head job. I feel bad I haven't had the time to work on him. I have been working alot of overtime. I miss driving him .Alot. Head gasket went on the highway. KARR, your a brat. this is Arnie, my Iron Duke 84He is my first baby.I have had him for 10 yrs.

 

The red one reminds me of my first '82.

Iron Duke! You don't see those too often! How does driving one feel?

 

Redlines too quick. It feels like a 6 cyl. He has a cherry bomb. The machine shop teacher from high school said it sounded like a diesel. What, is he a Kenworth or something?

 

lol!

I really want to drive one just for the hek of it one day!

:hail: 4 third gens! :hail: 3 '84's lol!

 

Here's my Iron Duke 84





Trust me these Iron Duke thirdgens don't have enough horse power to get out of their own way.

Mine, at least, is pretty sad. The only reason I hang onto it is because A: its a firebird, B: it was my first car, and C: not too many around any more.

later,

bill

 

ah you firebird lovers, get a real car

lol jk there are some beautiful thirdgens in here

 

You all have beautiful third gens

 

heres my 84:

 

and here's my iron duke......................jk

 

Where are these other birds located firechick? I'm right down the street from you and if your not going to buy any of them, maybe I could take a look???? By the way the white one is nice, great find......

 

War Eagle, you are j/k right? The only one not in my yard is the Iron Duke. It is at my mom and dad's house. Apparently you have not seen my driveway. You live in Port St John? Why aren't we hanging out? Really, you shoud see our driveway. I'm not j/k.

 

This is one of my fav pics from when i first got her. 1984 trans am L69

 

here's my 84 L69 T/A

 

Of course the we all know the best 3rd Gen Firebird was the banshee:



I wub my car.

 

I like it, I rarely see any 82-84s anymore.

 

Amen.

 

I'll see if I can find something to post. The poor thing has been sitting for 6 months waiting for a new clutch.

 

Firechick, you were talking about an 84 H.O. and a black 85 for sale in your area. just wondering if you could let me know where there at, if your not looking to buy them.......Do you ever go to the monthly get-togethers at Dogs-R-Us? Some of the guys from Fl-Thirdgen have it on a monthly basis, but with the storms it has been changed alot. I have seen your car around town though.......

 

HAHAHA THIS WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN !
its supposed KITT was a supercar
and no T/A s were available ?
or its well known KITT was a modified T/A ?

 

My 84 is in lots of pieces. motor is out being bored .030 over and front end is in process of coming off. Love seeing the 82-84 T/A's. I will have to get some pictures of my progress posted. Still gathering front end body parts for our restoraiton. Thinking of doing the body and interior back to stock but under the hood will be a little different.

I've got an '84 T/A that's my project car and an all original '85 S/E that I'm the 2nd owner of. The '84 started life as an L69 5 speed hardtop WY6 (which constitues the entire WS6 package, except posi) with 3.73's and disc brakes. I've done quite a bit to it since I got it. It's got a new 350 in it, 6 speed, new carpet, 4th gen seats, '91 guages (wanted the electronic speedo for my T-56), and many many little things here and there. The latest project is fuel injecting it with a Holley Stealth Ram and Commander 950 engine management system. I really do like the early birds, and if my '84 had been in better shape when I first got it (interior was ratty, motor was iffy, but did run good and is now in a stock car ) I would have probably kept it closer to stock than I have. Anyway, here's a pic of the '84:


and my "iron duke"


-Paul

P.S. I WISH my fiance wanted Pontiacs and wanted to work on them, but that's not her thing, sadly

 

Dunno about that. I liked the banshee at one time but prefer the 85-90 (with a properly adjusted hood). Actually now the Banshee style front is my last choice.



My next one will be an 82-84, I like the 2nd gen style taillights on 'em.

 

I agree with you Goumba T, I don't particularly care for the "Banshee" style nose either. Seems like it can't decide if it's a thirdgen or a fourthgen...but they certainly are unique!!! I also agree with you on the tail lights. I really do like the tails on my '84, although I like the grid style also, but the ones on the '84 are more...I dunno...classy maybe? Well, they're different at least lol


-Paul

 

Oh man the black with gold... I love that combo.

Woman around here had a black and gold 83 and I kept waiting for her to sell it. Now its suddenly disappeared. Either she sold it quietly or something worse happened.

 

Best looking were the 85-90 T/A's with the 84 T/A hood like mine,

 

I love the 82-84 Tails.

 

29k mile car probably wouldn't have rusty quarter panels, but ir looks nice anyway

 

nice bird's firechick.....for some reason i like the white and black one the best


and also i didnt know bout the WY6 being the WS6 of our year....thats awesome now i can get the WS6 centercaps and not feel like im being "R I C E Y" for getting them

as for my 84...i plan on doing something that GM shoulda done in 84...which is put a 350!! in the TRANS AM's....mines pretty quick for a 305 but i want to be up there with LS1's!

 

Martin, thanks for the nice comment! When I had said,

I ment it runs,drives and shifts as well as a 29,000 mile 'Bird. The headlights still work perfectly. My only third gen that does! My 85's did work for the first couple of weeks, when I bought him. Matt-I love your 'Bird. It looks familiar...... You have later High Techs with door molding,and I don't. Quadgoat-I can't stop drooling over your 84! It is gourgous! So your from Maine. I am from Massachusetts origianally. I used to go up there to camp alot. I have only been there once, but I love Point Sebago. I was in the 5th grade when I went. I know, I'm dating myself! I would love to go camping in Maine again. By the way, the TPI looks right at home in your 84. The 85 has the TPI.

 

Thanks for the complements Firechick, she's a work in progress for sure! Your cars are quite nice looking as well, I love seeing the early birds kept alive! I actually live in Bangor, when I'm not at school in NY. That's pretty cool that you used to camp in Maine If you want to see more pictures of the '84 there are quite a few at: http://students.vassar.edu/paphillips/pics/carpix
and Pictures of the '85 as well as the installation of the Stealth Ram in the '84 at https://vspace.vassar.edu/paphillips/firebird (The '85 is for sale, by the way if you're interested in another toy for your driveway it's in SWEET condition). Anyway, good luck with all the Pontiacs!!!!!

-Paul

 

LOL... I think we all love our Firebird's.

I recall the following quote:

"In matters of taste, there is no right or wrong."

The only caveat I have to that is if you are a Rustang owner.

My muscle...

 

SORRY War Eagle, I miss took your "where are the Birds?"comment. I thought you were implying that I really did not own my Birds. The cars you are really want are off of US1 North. The three of them are off of Garden St. in Titusville. All three cars are neighbors. The 84 is at a garage and the 85 is next door. It is for sale by a homeoner. He also has another T/A in his yard. It looks to be an 87. I think the 87 is being modified.
