Hello from Canada

Hello all, new to the site but not 3rd gens or f-bodies, I've had a 1984 Trans Am in the past and my brother have done a lot of work on his 1987 Iroc-Z.

Just picked up a Firdbird for my next project.

It's an old and tired 1987 Pontiac Firebird t-top with a 2.8 and an automatic trans.



This car is going to be a future LS build with a T-56, as well as beautification of the interior and body.

For now, here is what I am working with.



It's a running driving car, but very tired.

Welcome aboard. I'm local to you living south of the city but working in it. Closer to Castrol Raceway than I am downtown though.

Nice,
you run much at castrol or hit up and local spots when the weather is nice.
I've seen a few nice 3rd gens around here but they are fewer and fewer.

Re: Hello from Canada

At one time I'd consider Castrol my "home" track. But since the car has been down for one reason or another over the last couple of years, I haven't made a pass.
Same goes for local cruising. I'd done the Whyte Ave/Jasper Ave tour a few times. Never really got in with any local crowd as I didn't get much of a chance as the car was off the road not too long after I moved out here.
But I'm hoping for better times in the coming year.
