So I bought a firebird for 900 last summer and I need help on deciding on what to do first. For starters its a 1988 with a tuned port 5.0. As of right now I have new brake pads, rotors, calibers, fuel pump, starter, k&n style air cleaner and pipe, new performance muffler (no cat), I just put in new headlight motors, and I took off the rubbery wrap around spoiler because it was all dry rotten. What she needs is a heater core, raditor (it does not have something for the heater core idk), paint, and just a lil bit of body work. I'll try to get pictures up when I can. As for the tires they are the 16x8 ws6 wheels but they are not in good shape from when I got the car, and the tires are not the right size either. The motors runs really well and has no problems same for the tranny. So, I am going to be buying something but i dont know what. So should I get the lil bit of body work/paint or get a set 17x8 black torque thrust rims, or any better ideas?

Thanks for the help,
Seth

 

Get it driving right, then tackle the cosmetic problems. A car that doesn't move under it's own power reliably isn't a very usefull car.

 

its runs and drives great. I drive it everyday and it still has all the power if i wanna play as well. As i had said earlier i had fixed everything that would keep it from driving. I need heat, paint, rims and tires, and interior work.
