It was a nice warm 55* here in the sticks of NW Indiana so i figured i would get some new pics of my car.....first burnout pic i have had with the new motor!! (will have more once i get my posi unit installed and a new tire....rear right is bald now )

 

The car is looking very good!

Seeing those makes me want to drive my silver '83 even more!!! (New engine and many other parts... It's been down for over a year!)

Are those fog lights behind the grilles? If so, how well do they light up the road?

 

I love it when someone can capture just the right angle and can turn a basic picture into a bold piece of art.....hard to do, but you did it well!!!
.....wish I had posi

 

Looks good! Don't you just hate those 1 wheel burnouts?

 

Beautiful bird! And a nice sleeper

 

thanks for all the comments guys.....


82FirebirdTA: They work alright...they shine just infront of the car so they work pretty good...my friend had a set that had a blue lens and his were brighter so i may swap out to those in the future....i have them hooked up to the 85-90 style foglight switch but something in my wiring went wrong because they don't work anymore and i kinda lost interest in them to go through the wiring....

Camaroguy18: Thanks......my gf actually took the pic of the burnout and i think she did a good job too....she was supposed to take a video of a burnout/launch right afterwards but ended up just taking another picture....lol oh well i kinda rushed her so i guess i can't complain.....besides a video will look a lot cooler when i have a posi and im sideways


82firebird and Camaroguy18: Yes....one wheel wonders suck!

85_ZED28: Thanks, i like to think of my car as kind of a sleeper....i have the stock 5.0 H.O. badging on the bulge....but my car now lopes with the 355 so i dunno if anyone believes it anymore.....and my hood is jacked up in the back so that it can clear the air cleaner....hopefully soon i will be able to put it back to flush.......i plan on getting a 85-90 TA style wraparound spoiler and i think that everyone will think im trying to make my car into a formula after that.... ....im just trying to make it look like i think it should have looked stock

 

I put fog lights behind my grills back in 1999. They used to work. Like you, something went wrong and now they don't work and I lost interest in trying to figure out what. I had a lot of guys ask me about it so they could do it to their bird too. It seemed like a nice location to me. I don't like the look of fog lights just hanging from bumpers.

Very nice looking ride man. I love the way your ride looks. Keep it sweet man.

you can sorta see the reflection behind the grill in these pictures:

 

billsfirebird: i was one of those who talked to you about it.... wooo you are the "behind the grill foglights" leader!!...LOL

 

Those are some sweet pictures

I plan on getting some shots of my car like that, this summer.

And about the lights.
I did that same thing with my 79 T/A, back in 1983.

I have lights for my 83, just haven't installed them yet.

Leon is the behind the grille originator!. Just to let you know how much of a young pup I am....I was only 3 years old in 1983.

Sweet t/a man.

i wasn't born yet....my car is 1 year older than i am lol

 

it has been unusually warm in Indiana lately hasnt it...50 degrees in January...

nice pics

 

BUT!... you should fix that hood, im talking about the upper corners sticking out near the windshield.

 

yes i already said that i want to do that..... i don't like it like that either....

 

^ We'll let that slide since ya got clearance issues after an engine swap Great pics. I went outside today for lunch and thought "Damn it's nice out!!" and then "I wish I could be at home workin' on my truck instead of stuck at work"
