Be sure to rate, and sign my guestbook. Thanks!
I Bought this car on April 20th, 2007 From the Second Owner. The Car itself is in great Condition, but It still needs some work.

IT still needs a lot of work. Problems include:
Break Caliper is grabbing on the left side, and is causing the car to turn into oncoming traffic when breaking. Solved when I redid the breaks completly
A vacuum leak which could be causing the aforementioned break problem. Ordered a few parts which I think will fix this annoying hissing, and possibly my air.
It needs new Tires. YAY new cooper cobras
A Cracked Dashboard. boneyard find of a lifetime. Got a flawless one for $40, but got a cover for it anyway (will be a nice thing to show off in shows)
AC not functional
Cruise not working. The AC and cruise might be as simple as a fuse, and is possible because the guy I bought it from pulled his amp and subs from it.
A Harley Sticker on the back Lol tore this off quickly
No Muffler
Scratched T-Tops. Got a nice pair of T-Tops off of a firebird. Will swap the lock part of the t-top when I get my body work done, and put my new weatherstripping in
Bad Weather Stripping. Bought some. Will install after body work is done
Body Work!!!

I Already replaced the Hood Hydraulics, and found out that a previous car I had would be of some use after all. This whole project started out in December of 06 when I got a 1986 camaro from a friend. The thing was auto, and had a tiny v6 in it. I planned on putting a 305 and manual tranny in it. I found the best way to do this would be to find a donor car that works well, but doesn't neccesarily look good. Well I found it. A 1989 Firebird. The thing looked sweet, and the body was in better shape than the original car. Plus it had a 305 and manual tranny, so it would work perfectly. It Turns out that they forgot to put coolant in the engine, so the block was cracked, and the engine was junk. Instead of trying to sell it as a car, I may sell it to the junkyard. It was about this time that I found out I would be moving this summer, and would be cut out from my friend who was helping me on all of this. It was then that I started looking again, and found this baby. So now, all 3 F-body's around the same garage, I'll try and put pics up later. The friend that gave me the 86 camaro decided to keep it, and that's fine by me, because It had nothing in it I could use.

So for now, I need to get what I can from the firebird, which is next to nothing. The fan motor may be the same, so I may snag that next week, and I already swapped the hood hydraulics (Those little clips are beasts, and a horrible design to take off if you need the old clips). I also found that the T-Tops fit, so I'd have an extra set of T-tops. I'll update it and put new Pics when I get the chance.
The stereo in the 1992 Is trash... so I need to replace the stock midrange, and add a few other things. I was thinking about a 2000 Watt pyramid amp, and 2 12" 1000 watt max subs.

Possible upgrades in the future (at least a year and a half away) include:
An LS6 with a decent aftermarket intake setup
A new tranny to handle the power (racing t-56).
A new drive shaft, and a new rear end.
Some weld in SFCs.

Beautiful Camaro!! You've done some nice work. The Audio set up you put in is sweet! Is that a Heritage edition? The paint work looks the Heritage edition with the body color grill, stripes and painted light buckets. Thanks for the comments on mine. I wasn't sure about the accents on my interior wether I like them or not, glad you like them! I went to the junk yard a.k.a. Treasure Chest and picked up some interior pieces to paint and kept my original black pieces to put back on if I didn't like the red ones. The red ones have grown on me, so I'm going to keep them.
