Cool. I will keep you in mind. Still need to convince the wife as we dont have our own garage yet. I wasnt supposed to get a car until we bought a place, but if I can get this for 2-3k then i dont think I can pass it up.
I almost bought a 58 Del Rey but the guy was asking too much. Since im not really in the market, I wont pay a lot for something. if I get a great deal then I can pull the trigger.
BTW if i do get this, my plans would include some kind of LS motor, T56, Grand am interior (i like it and it should fit pretty well), of course suspension and brakes, and no clue on color.
I dont think Ill post if I get it. I will just show up somewhere with it.

oops my bad, its a 67. He keeps it under a cover so I never noticed if it had wing windows. I just looked at the tail light to confirm and it is a 67.
whats so wrong with the 69? Ive never liked it, but dont know why. Is it the body line? they look great on the Camaro, but i guess not so much on the firebird.

I personally like the look of the 67 68 grill as a whole where the 69 looks small and headlights are on the outside of the grill but with repro parts you can make any year look the way you want lol
