So many 3rd gens!!!
i wasnt sure where else to post this, but its pretty interesting.... i might have 4 3rd gens soon lol, heres the story:
1) My red 89' firebird formula t-tops, that i got for 900 bucks a couple years ago. had a stock 305 TPI, i put a 350 in it. currently sitting in my driveway, since i got into an accident a month ago. i need to replace the rad support, hood, front bumper, and passenger side fender. car has over 255k on it!
2) A free black 88' firebird formula hard top, with no engine/tranny, at my other house, i'm using it for body parts for my 89' formula, its already stripped almost completely, all it has left are the wheels, exhaust, and fuel tank.
3) My friends white 89' firebird formula hard top, with no engine/tranny, but with all new B&M suspension including subframes, rear adj. shocks, adj. pan hard rod, adj. torque arm, adj. rear lift bars, and an aluminum driveshaft. it aslo has a built 10 bolt rear, with 3.73's in it, and a posi tracks diff.
4) A red 91' trans am? t-tops, for 300 bucks. i might throw my engine/tranny in it, because my car has so much milage. the car supposedly has no rust, and the guy just wants to get rid of it. i'm gonna go see it tomorrow, ill keep you guys updated.
any ideas of what i should do with all of these cars??? i was planning on making one really good car for my every day driver. i was planning on junking the rest, but im not positive yet.
heres a link of a detailed description of all the cars:
