I am currently restoring this car into a decent state because it was not maintained very well over the 12 years it was sitting in my dad's garage. Here is my 1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. It has just 22,000 miles.

I have 3 wheels and 4 tires right now! I dont know where the fourth wheel is but hopefully it will come in soon(or else i'll unfortunately have to look on ebay and get another front GTA). Anyway, the three that i do have are really nice!it took only 4 months to do them!
I also just ordered a hooker catback last night. It should be coming in later this week because i paid for 2nd day air.($8 more) I will probably have an exhaust shop weld it up for me in a couple weeks. The stock is very restrictive and it will be replaced soon. I will also be putting in an 02 sensor.

It is almost finished! I just need the professionally refinished GTA's i ordered from FBODYMOTORSPORTS close to 4 months ago! I already have some 245/50/16 potenze re950's ready to be mounted. My bumper grilles came in, finally, but they look excellent. I took it out today and there were some blue skies out for a change so i decided to pop on the bowling ball hubcaps on the 15" turbo cast wheels and take a few pics. here she is in all her glory. This is probably the most stock appearing she will ever be again. Even the tires are original from '82! Only thing different than when it came off the lot was that the side mirrors were black and it is missing the decals. Now for the relentless process of upgrading what hasnt already been hopped-up!

I am almost completed with the process to get this car on the road. It is registered, insured and ready to go in all legal aspects but the last thing i need is a set of new tires and the GTA wheels which should be coming in any day now. I refinished the headliner (WLS headliners, excellent kit! i reccomend them for anybody) and other interior things which needed work like the back panels of the seats. Everything is in good condition now and it is how i am going to keep it.
Here is a shot right after the car was sprayed.
