86 Firebird parts car

I have a chance to buy a 86 firebird with a 305 and auto tranny. I want to do a carb'ed engine swap in to my 92 rs with the 3.1. I know the 305 arent that great but i figured i could always drop in a 350 after i get the intial swap done. Would this be a good donor car? From what the description says the motor has 77k miles on it, just the body is rough and needs repainted.

Re: 86 Firebird parts car

A parts car is the easiest way to do the swap.... just search the threads on here or ask if anything goes wrong. Everything should go pretty smooth.
