I right now have the resources to do put together another thirdgen. So I am looking for a solid Firebird, TransAm, Formula, etc. Dont want to spend more than a couple hundred. Perfer a roller. Interior and drivetrain dont matter. No Chevys please. Perfer to keep within a couple hours drive. Thanks

Hey man. I haven't seen you around here for a long time!

Is the GTO still in boxes? :P

What's the story with your Lemans thease days? Are you still running the 350 in it?

Hey Mike!

My buddy has a 91 Formula, 305 TPI auto, about 125,000 miles, runs good, no real mods, body is in pretty good shape (alittle while ago he slid and hit a sign, needs new front fender and maybe a bumper, but it still drives totally fine) he is probably looking to get 2500 or so for it, i can find out more if interested

Solidlifter-GTOs assembled, just awaiting for the engine to go in and be painted, needs a 4-speed though.

The 72 has a 400/th400 thats built pretty nice going in on spring break. Bodyworks done, just needs painted


Vic-Sounds awesome, but more than i'm looking to spend. I'm either going to put a 455 in one or have a clone of my old 355 built for one. Pretty much just looking for a solid roller.

Welcome Back!

Hey Mike,
I was just back on here for the first time in many many months and wanted to welcome you back to you're senses! LOL
I'll keep my eyes out around here for a Bird that's worth you're time
I just got back on Feb 2nd, I went to Geelong, Australia and visited JACKO in person. Had a great time! Thinking I might have to sell all my toys and move down there!
Cya!

Chris-Hey, I was going to ask you awhile ago but forgot, my friend wants to see the TA. He's obsessed with those cars. Maybe a Cordova run this spring???
