  • Freshly detailed 69'

    Hey everyone, my dad got this car about a month ago. Its a 69' Firebird with the 400 in it. Not a true Firebird 400 but all the numbers match and what not, pretty much the real thing. Anyway, i gave his car the overhaul today with wash, claybar, all cleaned up, polished windows, 1 coat of zaino, few more to come of course. Came out pretty good. Let me know what you think. Car has the 400 engine, cam (unsure of specs) headers, exhaust, previous owner said it has about 330 rwhp and ran 13.3 on these tires and 13.1 on mickey's. Time to mod my car now huh, lol. Heres some pics!

    Very Nice! I love the hood. I'm sure that speedometer must top off quickly.
