rescued 90 firebird
I found a nice 90 firebird that had died on the previous owner. He had raised the suspension in order to clear some donk 22" wheels. It has been updated with leather seats from an 02. I purchased it with the original wheels back on. Future plans include lowering it, mini tub it, 12" wide grand sport wheels, and C5 brakes

The body is rock solid and these are the best closing doors on a thirdgen I ever had. Best news is I got it running already.

Re: rescued 90 firebird
He added coil spring spacers in the rear along with some air shocks that came off something else. The front had an aluminum spacer under the coil and some longer than normal struts off something. Here had a brand new set of moog 5600 coils that he hadn't put on front yet in the hatch. Claimed it would raise it even more. Google says there for a g-body el camino. I will post a pic of it when I get home from work for grins.

Re: rescued 90 firebird
Recently bought and installed BMR perimeter frame connectors to go with the top down solution ones I had already put on. Bought a hawks 4L60E crossmember to go with the 02 6.0LS I have waiting. Also redid the interior a little
