I didnt want to rot my cutlass out driving it this winter so I picked up a 97 Firebird with the performance 3800 package. The motor was locked up and the interior was nasty. Brakes were shot, swaybars endlinks were rusted off and the tires were junk. Put a 180K mile supercharged 3800 in it, replaced some suspension parts. I crashed it, found a 98+ nose and swapped the front end.

Overall its damn torquey and spins through second with nothing more than an exhaust and filter. Runs fine in the winter too! 😀

As purchased

Yep, rod bolt broke or fell out. One of the bolts was sitting in the pan.

Cool thread. I picked up a '96 T/A low miles from a guy had just bought it. He was driving it, fell asleep at the wheel and put it on a traffic divider. Holed the pan, set off the airbags, but other than that the car was perfect. I offered him $400 for it, he just had paid like $5K but had to leave for Texas the next day. He WAS gonna drive, but not in that car. He took it, begrudgingly..even Pisssed off, but I scored it. Threw in a windshield (Airbag damage) grabbed my '72 SS El Camino, my old Class C motorhome and ran down to Kompact Kar Korner. Traded them all in on a C-5 Vette and got rid of three headaches in one afternoon. Gave the C-5 to my wife and still have it. LOL,I think it's a disease.
