Sorry to hear about that one bro. No hard feelings.

Also, hate to jump on the vulture bandwagon, but yeah, about the parts...?

Bummer
I was hoping to see your ride at Cruisers Carwash or Bob's Big Boy.
Went to Bob's last night.
EXCELLENT CRUISE NIGHT!
Packed full of rides!
Chatted with some guys with a 30th anniversay Camaro's. They really liked what I did to my Firebird.
I really wanted to see your CAI set up to make my own. And al the other stuff, too

Hey call Marty at 323-587-3144 and get a 3.4!
Don't let all those parts and effort go to waste.
One 3.4 + effort = one cool ride

Chat Soon,

Damn, wish I knew!
Can by tomorrow to look at stuff, or Monday for sure.

I'm badly wanting a taillight centerpiece, just the black plastic that coveres the hatch lock cylinder, esp. if yours has a red script Firebird and lettering. Eamil if you want to push a price around.

That's okay dude, don't worry about 'em. I'll just give ES a call one of these days, just like you did. Besides, installing those is the furthest from my mind right now
