Rims are used, got from speedautomotive.

Hood came primed and sanded.

 

Well I know with all the great Firebirds/Trans Ams,GTAs,Forulas,,,, so on and so on.Mine dosnt belong on the top 10 so I won't bi*ch about mine not being up there,, but because Karps TA looks most like mine he gets my vote,,,no offence to all the other beautifull cars though ....

 

.

 

Im happy with a tie, I was geting kinda scared when you got 1 ahead of me but hey, atleast me and you are in the top what do we have to complain about.

 

dude i hear u man, i start breaking a sweat if the smallest thing is out of place, im begining to think i have some sort of mental disorder......n e way thanx for the compliment


BTW scott85ta your car IMO looks about 10x better than karps TA, though his is nice im not into camaro parts on a firebird...

 

.

 

If I could, I would.

 

Zepher's car is starting to look pretty sharp, especially with those new wheels. It's a good work in progress, and eventually it'll probably be up there with the best.

And it has all those chicks

BTW: what's the RPO code for that? Guess my car didn't come with that option

- Mike

 

ya i forgot how much zephers purple trans am with a flat black raceing stripe is sooo much nicer than my car. what was i thinking.Glad i got thirdgen friends like u guys with that collecters eye to show me the error of my ways. Lord knows how many color changes thats been through.

BTW qwk dont be mad becouse after a 20k motor ur still stuck with a car that doesnt have t tops

 

Have you ever heard of someone spending 20K on a motor and magically it gave the car t-tops? You're an idiot.

Don't complain about not having any thirdgen friends. You lost a lot when you decided you hate Camaros and their owners.

 

.

 

I got T-tops and when I was looking for a car I was insistint on t's. But If I had to do it again, I would not care for them....Im not against them but they have good points and bad.

 

We've already went over this with him. If he has it and you don't, your car is inferior and can't not match his standards. He talks about options, but has a baseline firebird with the low end engine. He talks about how perfect the car is but the poll went downhill on him.

He needs to accept that the car is clean, nothing more. It's not hard to keep a car clean or even find one if you take your time. You want clean... check out Mirso427 I believe is his name. Thats a PERFECT car. But of course it's a camaro... so it's a piece of ****.

 

man ... what a nice attitude he has...

Personally I'm taking QwkTrip and Scotty's85T/A over Onefine8T9's because they're both beautiful cars (Along with 85 T/A WS6 which looks like Scotty's but no R/A hood and its black with a gold bird..., Roshambo's, and a few others) ...

And I'm sticking with it even moreso than I was before because of the ignorance I've seen from him (not that I think you're a bad guy or anything... but you're being a real jackass...) ... Just because a car doesn't have T-Tops... somehow that makes it less? I agree with what was said above... I guess if someone doesn't have it and you do, you're automatically better... right?

I'd hate to see you take a ride in QwkTrip's car when its done (Or any of his previous toys as well)... but I'd laugh to see you dishing out $$$ to replace his interior... you'd have to know whats been done to the entire car to appreciate it in its beauty... so what if it has to T-Tops or a hood... any way ya look at it... no matter what you sell yours for... Jon could always get a lot more out of his... yours is just appearance... whoopdeeflippindoo ... who needs appearance when you've got flat out ***** to the wall? ...

If ignorance is bliss... man... you must be on cloud 9...
"Good one Yogi... now lets see if the rangers gives a shyt this time"

 

BTW I own an 83 Z28 ... does that make my opinion any different? Does it make me any less of a Thirdgenner? I also don't have T-Tops because I don't care for them... again, does that make me any less?

I've got stock 3.73's and a stock fiberglass hood...
I've got a car that was a stock T5 and I replaced that with another 5 speed... I've got a 350.

Do those make me any less?
Or is it just because I've got a camaro for a project and like Jon's it doesn't go many places yet...

You've got to see beyond the appearance sometimes... which is why Jon got a lot of votes.... and you? well...

your arrogance gets you a lot of enemies... and it shows buddyboy

No it's not over!!!!!!! I still have a chance! Everyone that votes for me I'll send you an Autographed Picture of Me and my Car!!!!

 

What the hell does that have to do with n e thing? he has me beat becouse of his 600hp motor and i have him beat becouse i have a car with t tops. So what???NO! i didnt say i hated all camaros and thier owners, i hate camaros and owners like importsrsloths or 86 street, i dont hate all camaro owners, no offence but i probably have more friends with camaros than most people, and i dont mean people on a thirdgen board, people i have met with and hung out with. Ok this is the last time i should have to say this, i dont hate all camaros or thier ownersok i think your missing my whole point about collector thirdgen. By pulling your motor and modding the interior wheels ect...you ruin the cars collectability, it dont have to be a TPI 350 1le car to have collecters status, low miles,few owners macthing numbers and almost no visible mods are what make a car collecters status in my book. Ya sure thier a million thirdgens in the world but like u said your self thier in junkyards street corners and every farm and they almost all end up hacked up smashed up or whatever, today its hard to find a firebird or camaro that hasnt been touched hit or abused, or in an owners hands that are capeable of owning the car. The list is getting smaller by the day, but thats all besides the point. WHO said i was trying to sell my car down the line or that i bought it with intention of selling it? i fell in love iwth the car becouse i love firebirds of that year. So what? so i keep it they way it should be. In 20+ years how many of those will there be??purposeful insult? u think i purposely try to cut down others and thier rides? no what it is when people get mad at me for one reason or another they compare my car to another cars(not his own) and cut mine down in comparison , so i get mad and cut whosever car is being compared to mine down becouse of how it was said. Sure there are nicer f bodys than mine but i have a stock firebird so compareing mine to one with alot of $ in mods is unfair, who said i was? reguardless of what n e one says about me as a person u cnt say i dont have a beautiful example of a thirdgen firebird, thats what it iis a firebird, nothing more nothing less, i dont want to act like my **** dont stink but WTF , people cutting my car down becouse it dont have mods or whatever? I thought people would look better on one to keep as origional, in a way preserving the cars OEM beauty. Thats reguardless i didnt build the car to what others may think.....no, you could have a no t tops v 6 firebird and id still think it was nice if the quality of the car was there. I never said n e ones car was inferior(except that one post but that was out of anger). Ya i know i have a baseline firebird with a v8. a baseline firebird comes with a v6 for a base firebird its an option right or wrong? and just for your info(dont call this tooting my horn either please) i have an 85 trans am with 33k origional miles every available option, the highest out put motor available for that year and its a factory yellow which was just repainted about 2 months ago so if my red one wont hold its value the yellow one will. Again i am not tooting my own horn only defending my thirdgen collecter status. dude i put alot of time work and money into my car to make it the way it is, thats all i am sayin, and who is Mirso and what the hell do i care what his car looks like, see thats exactly what i was talking about, someone useing someone elses car against my car in a comparison and guess what....i woudl say his car sux or whatever and now id have another thirdgen enemy. SO guess what........he has a nice car (even though i never seen it) but i will defend the right i busted my *** to have and say that i bet he dont have a nicer thirdgen (stock) 89 firebird than mine. He may have a nicer 91 ta 5 spd Lb9 1le that may be all origional but he dont have an 89 firebird Lo3 5 spd in mint condition (which i will add once again i busted my *** to make it that way) so why would u compare my car to his? Im not sayin my car is better or not i am jsut sayin its the car i wanted and its not becouse of alot of money in mods its becouse ponitac built a sweet car. Factory for factory a trans am is nicer than a firebird so dont compare my cars quality to n e other car than an 89 firebird stock. there it is again, someone compareing someone elses car to mine, am i gonna say something down about qwktrip or scotty? nope roshambo? nope, the only thing i have to say about this one is dont use my car in a comparison if your gonna base your opinion on your feelings towards my attitude........again i say dont use my car in a comparison when your baseing it on your feelings towards me or my attitude. I must be a jackass for thinking a car with t tops is better than one with no t tops. I am not compareing a base firebird with a 6 banger with t tops to a 89tta w out i am saying in an equal comparison t tops are an option that would make a car better.......lol and who said i was biased? becouse i said firebirds are a better car? that doesnt mean i think camaros suck or u cant compare any camaro to a firebird becouse there camaros. I am saying in an equl comparison the firebird was to be the better car, by how much i guess that depends on opinion but it was, thats besides the point becouse i dont feel like getting flamed becouse i like firebirds better jsut dont say i am biased to what i have becouse i am notwhat your saying i havent been around fast cars?? my x GF father ahd a 94 viper rt/10 i got a chance to get a ride in, a friend of the family had a 25th aniversary lamborghini countach i also got a chance to ride in to i am not blind to fast cars. What the hell r u talking about just appearance?? i built the car to OEM specs what the hell does that supposed to mean? your right though who needs appearance.............lets go out and buy an 87 caprice classic and make it run 12s, i bet youd look real cool at the stop light in that thing, amybe youd pick up girls in it too, i eman hey its got ***** who cares about appearance........BTW i never said his car was ugly becouse of no t tops nor did i say it period ya thanx for pointing that one out

 

If I could only take my vote back... if only!

 

Are you drunk?

The only person you beat should be yourself, on a regular basis, with a shovel, perhaps that will knock some sense into you.

Everyone else, sweet cars!

-Roshambo

 

u guys are **** heads, what else do u want from me. i am not saying his car is better than mine reguardless of what is under the hood so i get insulted becouse of this? thats lame

 

*** i am sick of repeating this

 

I'll accept being considered the winner if its the opinion of the board, either way I think its both of us qwktrp.

A nice feature would be nice but I dont need anything out of this. Its all just for fun. I am proud though, thank you everyone.

Now just picture my car with qwk's engine.

 

.

 

I meant did you really think that Qwktrip spent that much money on the engine and thought t-tops would just appear out of no where? I don't think so. Maybe he doesn't want t-tops. Maybe his opinions aren't the same as yours. He has you beat with a 600HP motor and with a much better attitude. Also, I can see where you would hate ImportsrSloths because sometimes he posts insults about peoples rides and just plain immature stuff. Wait a minute.. that sounds familiar..

 

damn IE errors... :: begins retyping ::

anyway... the fact that you compare jons firebird to a countach (slowest of lamborghini's) and a 94 Viper is just hilarious... I honestly don't think either would hold a candle to Jons car...

You've got no idea what Jon has done to it and I'm pretty sure he's put more hours than you could believe into his car... I'm not going into details, but its a very long process and probably more problems you could ever have restoring something back to stock...

Most of the people on the list have put more work into their cars than you'd like to believe... so don't get into it about "Well I put yaddayaddayadda hours and blahblahblah dollars into my car" ... that whole holier than thou attitude isn't the way to go on a thirdgen board...

Seriosuly... are you drunk or something? Since when do T-Tops make a car? T-Tops are annoying things and they're a pain in the ***, especially if you've got a monsterous engine like Jon's... a lot of people prefer hardtops... I don't think theres much point in driving a car if your engine turns it into a pretzel regardless of SFCs or not... right?

You brought it up, not any of us...

so the whole point of this is...

I really wish you had responded to the rest of my thread...

Do you think you're better than the rest? Because you sure act like it...

Hey, my camaro has had less than 200 miles on it in over 2 years ... and I could care less... but I'm restoring mine somewhat like you did... so when mines done, if you want to get into a whole pisser about how many hours and $$$ we put into our cars... we can... but if you want to get into it with other people on that list ... man I think you'll lose... mmkay?

You have a base firebird with a V8
Jon has a base firebird witha V8

so whats the big friggin deal bitch!?

 

BTW... instead of a caprice... I'll take a Hearse and make it run 11's and yanno what? if you got your *** beat by a hearse at a stoplight? you'd cry wouldn't you? I'd be able to pick up chicks, have a great looking (albeit large and dark themed) car... that could still run 12's or better (and 12's or better in a hearse would be pretty nice considering the weight)

But hey.... 12's in a caprice would be fun too...

Who cares about chicks when you've got a fast car? just more money to spend on something else...

My car runs 12s already... but I'm still working a lot on it, hehe

dude i can only imagine how many hours he put into fabricateing a 468 big block with a supercharger and still run TBI, thats obvious, restoreing a car doesnt take nearly as much work, your just replaceing or fixing whats already been done, he built a whole new car, no **** i kow what your saying. I guess this is just opinion but i thought there wasnt much point in owning an f body w out t tops, i mean i am not selling n e f bod w out them short but WTF i was just trying to end it by saying he has an advantage and so do i. See obviously hes gonna win he has a 600hp motor but would it be the same if we where compareing car stock for stock? I highly doubt it. I am not saying the lamborghini is the fastest thing on 4 wheels but WTF all i was sayin is i am not blind to fast cars thats all, dont turn it into an arguement. Jon i am also not going to get into compareing cars becouse ur right its not kool. Yours is of one class mine is another. Stock/modded see where im coming from? lol i think ur mistaken me, i am not some kid who bought the car like that, it did take alot of time/money and alot of hassle from dealers getting parts. U wanna see the real pisser of it all? i dont drive the car at all, not summer not spring fall or winter(obviously) not becouse its broken or whatever becouse i am afraid of some old lady plowing the back of it or whatever or some ball sac pulling out infront of me at 65MPH u know what i am sayin? so the last3 years i have owned my car its sat in storage2 1/2 years of that. Its been drivin 3 time only for dust to be washed off it. So imagine putting alot of money into a car and not driving it becouse of other people ignorance.......i dont know that kinda got into a long story about nothing thats really relavant

 

How much does it stick up about the fender.......ya know what I mean, hard to ask it the way Im thinking.

'cause this hood is actually pretty big and from the pics it looks like it might actually fit.

probobly not though, cause Im sure you'v allready explorered your options.

 

I think that 5 or 6 inches was what Qwk needed. Now, if he would go to some side draft Webbers...

 

Hmm, I saw something in Hot Rod just recently, and I think Jon should go with some fancy Single Barrel Offy's!

-Roshambo

 

hey damnit! im trying to make amens here guys work with me here!

 

.

 

Looks like I am late to this car show as well. I gotta represent my Firebird as well.

 

Oh i am mad i dident win oh i have a camaro n/m i hope the camaro poll dosent get this bad. i think we should do the camaro poll in years

 

Here's mine...

 

your bird is the idenickle twin to mine, but mines a 90, its a blue maue metalic....nice ride....

 

i hope this works

 

I voted for my car because...wait...no i didn't because its NOT ON THE LIST! I guess my car just sux then...oh well heres a small pic:




Can you tell me what sux about it, plz?

 

Thanks Chris for the compliments and the next time I run through IN. I'll take ya for a spin. Sorry it took me so long to reply but I saw the thread going to **** over stupid stuff so I wasn't reading anything but just wanted to see the poll turn out and throw a laugh in. Thanks again John
