Wow!!!!!!

 

Beautiful!

 

Get a good look boys. Soak it all in and commit it to memory... Before one of those mentally deficient Knight Rider fans snatches it up and destroys it.

 

My thoughts exactly.

 

Love the way that undercarriage looks, nice car

 

Wow! Theres a GEM!

 

It's a beautiful car. But?.....

 

My 82 Z28 had that cool exhaust setup under it. I love this car but..id have to shelf those rims, but definitely keep them, and put something else on it probably. Love those seats also.

 

I think the rear axle was painted... I think they were bare metal from the factory... sorry to knock it off the pedestal... still a nice car.

 

Yup, there has been some super-duper detailing done under there.

 

Does anyone have any info on that weird exhaust? I've never understood why GM did that. It looks like a lot of extra expense and development for seemingly no reason. It makes me wonder if there was a more elegant dual setup that got shelved or compromised late in the development cycle.

 

WOW!
$606 bucks for the cassette stereo?

Am I reading the sticker correctly?

 

piece of history. so awesome.

 

I'm ok with it... looks like it was done in a way so as to maintain parts originality. It just resembles one of those "over-restored" cars that are all original but in better condition than when they rolled off the line.

Car is awesome.

 

Oh I know you just did NOT call that free-flowing, twin resonator exhaust with a crossover pipe "weird"

One of the GM 'Imagineers' quoted in Camaro: The Third Generation says they wanted the best performance and sound, while still being under the Federal noise guidelines.

But really, I'd imagine is has as much to do with that as it does with the gimmicky crossfire intake, or that "Free-flow exhaust system with dual resonators AND a cross-over pipe." makes for good advertising.

 

Amazingly clean car.

 

My 83 has that exhaust... always looked restrictive to me to have a 90° Bend I think it would have been better to have 1 pipe split into 2 unequal length pipes with their own muffler and crossover pipe somewhere.

 

Me too! If someone spent the time to make their car so nice underneath, they really care about it. It's something I look closely on each car I'm interested in. If this was a newer L98 or G92 LB9 stick car I'd be all over it

 

Me three....

Honestly, I don't even care that it's an LG4/TH200.

 

Yup lol It's a UM6 ETR cassette, top of line in those days.

WOW !! Pretty clean car. But I think that color scheme and the N21 wheels hurt it.

IMO, Red/Black or Black/Gold, T-tops with the N89 turbo cast with black caps would fetch $$$ and have more collector appeal. But who knows ???


Still it's a VERY VERY nice low mile survivor car


Dave

 

I almost want to buy it just so I can put these BMW M1 tribute wheels on it... because I think they'd fit the look:

 

PMD seats ....great someone will make a kitt car out of it .

 

 

I'm more of a Camaro guy than the firebird, but that would be a nice addition to any collection. Funny thing about that exhaust, somewhere in a closet or maybe my dad's attic, I have a model of an early third gen car and that's the exhaust system on it, lol!

 

Too bad it does not have the Aluminum Hood option.

 

It's a late 82 build, Van Nuy car.


From what I read mainly Norwood cars got the aluminum hood

Dave

 

I have only seen one car with the Aluminum hood... I have only seen a few Aluminum hoods in person... Had no idea it was a Norwood thing... Interesting to know.

I won't spill the beans, but I know someone just picked up a car with the Aluminum hood... Bought it for a good price too... I told him he could probably sell the hood for $2000

 

Cat's out of the bag already John, but thanks.
