    • I've gotta say good job. Although I have never had much experience in the restoration field at the age of 18, I would say from where you started, it looks incredible. I wish I had the garage you have! And the tools! I am fortunate for what I have, but wow. I have a great ambition for this kind of work and may be considered clueless when it comes to the mechanical aspect of what makes a car tick, but I do like turning a rock into a diamond so to speak. I can't wait to completely restore my 85 z28 Camaro! Nice job man.

        • Well, Ive spent several long nights in the garage after work, trying to get it done.

          And I was on schedule to get it done... but no one has an opening to tune it before then.... so it looks like im going to miss the M&G

          SWEET! or so.

              That sucks... put it on a trailer and bring it anyway. People will still drool over it. Carp with the parts you have, you could just pile them up in the corner of the lot not even an assembled car and you would have a crowd all day. Good luck man.

                      The time it takes to tune it isnt the problem, its how long it takes to setup a tune date due to minimal communication. No worries tho, ill survive withiout him, unless he responds to my email.

                          • Very very nice. Love the wheels, was considering putting those exact wheels on my black Formula back in the day. Oddly enough I think yours is the first black TA/Firebird I've seen with them on.
