Well, got another one, T tops and still a 5 speed car, she will end up a 383 car, but not sure the top end combo yet, she is not pretty but she doesnt need a restoration or anything, FIRST third gen i ever bought that didnt have torn driver seat!!!

Ooo a perfect candidate to be made AWESOME once again. Please make it a different color! Anything other than teal.

Nice find!

It is actually green, the pics made it look like that for soe reason, it will probably be a emerald green, but really dark.

Same here, but for some reason i can see past it, maybe because it isnt going to be a 9 second car.

Looks like fun project! Everytime I see thirdgen projects makes me wish I kept my 91 Firebird GTA and the 92 Z28.

LOL, yea, they never laughed at my hard top...beating the ground....cowl hood....primer.... Yea, they knew the money wasnt in the paint:)

This is my second 5 speed third gen, they aren't impossible to find, there is a 86 IROC here for sale with a 5 speed, but DAMN the bitch needs more work than i want to do for the price.

keep it dirty and keep those 15" wheels and put the 383 and make it 11s sleeper

LOL, naa, i am trying to make this thing keep 20 MPG for DD duty, so if it gets a 383 it will be a mild vortec motor or something along that line, torque monster.


I am going to put the convo pros on my T top car from the hard top, the wheels you see in the picture will be on my hard top, but i am going to have the rear set widened to 15x10.
