New guy 85 firebird
I'm new to the forums, posted for the first time in the cooling section today.
Thought I'd introduce myself, I'm Josh, I'm 18 and I own an '85 Firebird and a '74 Nova. We are putting the Nova away for the winter and I ended up buying this Firebird to drive for awhile instead. Picked it up for $2500 with 134,000 miles. 2.8L V6 mated to a M5, 3.73 gears open 10 bolt (?) The car runs great, there is very little rust and the paint is decent. The interior is in awesome shape, only a small rip in the pass. seat and the center console has a tear in it. The trans am hood came with the car, also has the performance suspension option and gauge package. I did the custom CAI I saw in some posts here, and just replaced the radiator today due to a crack in the plastic tank. Only have one pic for now, will post more upon request if anyone is interested

Re: New guy
This is the first time I can say that those style wheels, don't look too bad. The color of the car and the wheels work with eachother well. Looks very nice and clean. Welcome to the boards.
