My daily driver is my 02 4 Runner. I also have my 94 wrangler which will be stored up at my family home in the Poconos.
But my pride and joy is my restored 68 Firebird. I bought this car in 1984 when I was 16 years old for $650.00. I saved up the money working after school and weekends for my uncles lawn maintenance company. It started life as a 6cyl OHC Sprint car with a 3 speed manual trans.
That combo soon came out and in went a junkyard 400 with a Muncie 4 speed and the car was seriously street raced throughout the late 80's. In 1989 when I enlisted in the Marines the car came off the road and was stored in my dad's garage while I accumulated the parts to restore it. It's been done over twice in the past.
Currently the car is restored to look like a Firebird 400. It's painted the original color of Verdoro Green with the factory white vinyl top. It has a healthy .030 over 400 with a set of lightly ported 6X heads, a Ram Air II cam, an Edelbrock aluminum intake and a custom tuned Rochester Q-jet carb. It has a Muncie M-21 4 speed trans and a 10 bolt rear with an Eaton posi unit and 3:55 gears. I converted it from manual drum brakes to power disc. I run a larger front sway bar and a set of custom made rear leaf springs.
So what interesting rides do you guys have??
