    Hey guys, My buddy Craig told me about this site a while ago, then I lost contact on a computer, got back on just last monday and talked to him and he reminded me that I have failed to introduce myself. I'm currently short on time right now so this will be a small one and I will do another post tonight after work. The names Oscar, I have a 93 Camaro with a 396 swapped into it, a 80 Firebird with a Chevy 350 in it, and a 84 Firebird with a 4 banger in it Lol (Its just my beater car to drive during the winter) And thats the basics right now, Later tonight I will post up specifications and whatnot. Sorry., I currently dont have any pics of the Camaro yet, I do have pics of the old 89 Trans Am I had, some pics of the 80 and some of the 8 but none of the 93 camaro yet, will post more later.

    PICTURES!!!

    Here's the 84 4 cyl that someone was wanting to see, these pics are a year old so yes the rims have changed, their nothing flashy, just something better than those.

    About the only problem I had in this area was that the previous owner decided 2 mix different types of brake fluid and contaminated the resevoir, found this out when the brakes went while driving home on Telegraph, thank god for it being a manual.

    The stick isnt there anymore, I got new hood and hatch struts on a visit to Auto Zone getting plugs and wires for my moms car.

    Paint chipping and some minor scuff marks, nothing major.

    Don't let the look of the interior decieve you, Yes, it looks good, but under that dash is a wiring mess, Dash lights dont work, you turn on the headlights and gas gauge goes straight to E, radio used to short out, hatch release button doesnt work, E brake cable is broke, hood release cable is broke, so much, so much.

    Back when the interior panels for the hatch were all taken off... for some reason I dont know.

    This was the only body panel damaged, Luckily we had the right fender from the 85 in our neighbors garage, so we swapped it out.

    I was trying to bend back the fender mount down there to find out if I would just take the fender off, it would bend back easy, half hour of this just got me all hot and sweaty.



    And now my car is 2 toned!

    This would be the 80 Firebird that I still have, Currently needs new trans seal before I can bring it out again, these are also old pictures from when I first got the car, the spare isnt there anymore, the tire that was on there had a slow leak, took it to work and fixed that easy, now its got all same rims on it.





    This would be my old 89 Trans Am, This was my pride and joy before I had got the 80 Firebird, my Stepdad got this after the 85 Firebird we had got totaled, and about 6 months after that it became my birthday present, and 3 years after that it had gotten Supercharged, all forged Crank, pistons, rods, comp cam, Edelbrock heads, Electronic cutouts, 3" exhaust all the way back, All of this while going to School! Loved to fire that thing up with the cutouts open after school, man would the jocks and wannabes cry at the beautiful sound my car made and they were all upperclassmen to me, so yeah, I had some fun if you know what I mean.






    This was my stepdads 85 Firebird parked next to my uncles 94 Camaro Z28, The firebird got rear ended and totaled.


    The 93 I plan to get pictures really soon, but it will be under work for about a week or so before the pictures are taken, I plan to go over one buddys house, and rip the motor out, then go over another buddys house to sand it down and paint it, Yes I know, Why take it to 2 different places? Cause one has the tools and whatnot to tear the motor down and change everything out, and the other has all the supplies and area to take the car itself apart and paint it, I'll be hopping back n forth working on the motor and body everyday.

        Sounds like a nice stable, Oscar.

        And even though it's your winter car, I believe you have the only (operational) 4-banger F-body...sure don't see those much anymore...

        Welcome and enjoy the site!
