My FBod

I just got it a week ago and haven't had MUCH time to work on it. These are just a few pictures, I will take a few of the engine bay and everything so you guys can see what I'm up against. But hey, what's the fun in buying a car you don't need to fix up and put your own touch on?

BTW These are all from a cell phone, sorry for quaity...

Third gen's are fun to work on. I've enjoyed putting (what little) time into my 88TA.

Good luck!

no. Thats was from a company that used to be "ASCD".

Firebird hoods were basically flat. You have a formula powerbulge hood that was put on by a previous owner some point in time.

Yeah, that word is pretty commonly used on this forum lol we should come up with a completely new word to replace it.. And about the hood it was put on by the last owner and IDK I like it but it took me a lil while to having any bulge at all lol Geos don't usually have one hehehe

he called it a parts car in the other post. Maybe he doesn't realize its the same car. 500 isn't a bad deal for a running/driveable 3rd gen.

=) The really big thing is that it overheats and it stalls, but the stalling I know is almost definitely a vaccuum leak, as for the overheating.... ?

Looks good have fun with it.
