I think he already bought the car and is just asking what people think about the car in general.

Personally, I think it looks great other than the Firebird wheels. I'd change them to any one of several 17x9 or 17x9.5" wheels on the market.

FYI, those are 16x8" wheels, that's the only size they ever produced that style in. And the tire size for those wheels should be 245/50/16.

Looks like a nice car and you got a good deal as long as it hasn't been beat. People that build up cars race them. That's not a problem as long as it is cared for. It's the people that abuse their car that are the risk.

Nice find. Yes, you are lucky I didn't see it first. Been looking for an auto trans Camaro to bracket race and can't quite find one that feels 100% right.

Enjoy!
