This is my 1988 Firebird Formula. This one has alot of history behind it. I got it before I turned 16, it was a present from my parents. I was going by the local dealership, and it was sitting on the side of the road. It took me awhile to get home but when I did, I started right then turning it into a beast. I got this car with 67000 miles on it and it has 154xxx now. I had planned on going through it and redoing everything before I started my new job. One night on my way home, one of my friends had a Conquest and caught me on the highway and we raced. Needless to say he blew past me, the next day I walked into the local Advance and start ordering upgrade parts.

This picture was taken way back in 2000. The only thing what was done to it then was a solar wing on the back glass.

This picture was taken not long after I had started on it with an exhaust.

After this picture I started college and all my money went to it. This is were the problems begin.
