First timer here,
Just thought I'd drop off a quick line to introduce myself. I recently rescued a81 Firebird from a bean field in Iowa for $200. Some new gas and an old battery started it right up, I was shocked! Found a $25 tranny for it and now it goes down the road. The car is in fairly good shape, some rust on the bottom from sitting on the ground for 10 YEARS!!! But it has potential. What it doesn't have is power. It sports a small 231ci. 3.8 liter and it won't even bark em' off going around a gravel corner.....yes, that bad. But it ia project car for my kids to take to prom and criuse with. (At least that's what I'm telling the wife) If anybody has body parts (mostly rocker panels and seats) I would love to hear from you. Thanks in advance...Ed
