Cool Your dream bird!

hey folks, just wondering, if you could have a collection of any 3 Firebird's ever made, which would they be? and why?

1.15th anniv. T/a with the L69 5 speed
2.1981 Turbo T/a NASCAR pace car
3. 630 Pro charged Blackbird

The first one...Well i have always believed that the Trans Am's colors are either black and gold, or white with blue and the 15th ann model looks like a freakin angel from heaven!

The second one, well its plain white and black, well the black Turbo hood bird looks sick and i have always wanted to try and like COMPLETELY rebuild the 301Turbo into a speedy motor.

The 3rd...common folks, do i really need to explain?

1) 2002 TA painted Maple Red Metallic, Firehawk hood, convertible with black top, tan interior, and a Maggie
2) 1968 Trans Am Convertible (clone acceptable, LSx conversion a-la Retrorides a plus) painted SOM with black stripes and black top
3) Smokey and the Bandit mobile.

1 - always loved MRM, LS1 verts, Firehawk hoods, and tan interiors. Simply put it would be my dream car - and it is not too difficult to obtain or [re]build something like that.
2 - it would be bad ***.
3 - For when I grow out a mullet despite the Asian in me.
