My new 91 bird

Heres the 91 bird I picked up for $800. Just one shot because the next day it became evident that it had a blown headgasket. Did a 0-60 check. Cat ran out in front of me *thank god the brakes worked perfect* missed the cat. Pulled in and heard a hissing noise, brown water was pouring out like a flood. Have had it in the school shop for 3 weeks. Took forever to get those stupid exhaust tabs off and get all those vacuum lines off.

She's a 305tbi stocker. kinda bad interior. Got a new dash and gauge cover. 15 bucks at Pick-A-Parts . Wanting to go to black interior. I got headers as a gift from my uncle and chrome valve covers. I wish the dome light/horn/power locks worked =/. Plus I have no idea how to get my powercable through anywere in the the firewall to my subs. on my V6 92 the battery was on the other side and had a hole easy enough to get the power cable through. But with the bat on the passenger with AC can't seem to find one with the length of cable I have.

Re: My new 91 bird

nice birdie

for your stereo power wire go down the backside of the passenger side fender and run the wire through the kickpanel area, right near/next to the main wiring harness. don't forget to use a gromit.
