Pheonix_rising's 1997 Pontiac Firebird

Welcome to my new page. My name is Ben. I am not new to cardomain and neither is my car.

On June 10, 2006 I was involved in an accident while on the way to a car show in metro Detroit. As I traveled closer to the destination the construction and the traffic as well as the nature of city drivers a woman slammed on her brakes in front of the car I was following. My friend in the car in front of me tried to brake and swerve not to hit her. I was not so lucky. Although I slammed on the brakes and had nearly 4 car lengths I rear ended my best friend. This is the outcome...

If your are interested, you may view my old page here...

This new set of pages will be dedicated to the rebirth of my precious Firebird. I intend to build her better in every aspect. Not only in the usual areas found on cardomain but also in safety and improved braking systems. If you own a pre-98 V6 Firebird or Camaro you should consider this...
