Nice TA. if you got it painted i bet it would look 10 times better.
I usually dont like windshield banners but i kinda like this one. I dont know if it is the car or the banner but it grew on me as i looked at it.
Now to paint...

well my plan for the car was to get it repainted a very deep black, add a cowl hood, lower it, Black c5 rims, and just give it that black out look. but im tring to get a formula 350 for 500$ off this guy so for now this car is on hold

you should get a T-56 for that when you get the 350 if its a TPI as the TPIs tourqe is notoriously hard on 5 speeds. Thats why they were never offered with the TPI.

t5's were offered with the 350 as long as it was a hardtop car. as for the t56 its the only way to go

let me retract my last statement about the 350 tpi. i know with the camaro there we very few that came with 350 and a t5. i think it was less than 200 of them

You are correct... much less than 200 of them. About 200 less than 200 actually ;-)

the formula is a orignal 350 car so it came wit the auto. the plans for that car is change it to black or red, leave the exterior stock cept for a hood, add a kickin driveline)consiting of a viper spec t-56 and a 12bolt 4.10 rear end. there were a few camaros that came 350 ti a 5spd but never made it to production

AFAIK, only the Firehawks had 350 or larger motors and manual tranny's.

But anyways, that is a decent looking Bird you got there.
