Did some work cleaning in the double bay garage today and somewhat uncovered the third gen.

1985 Pontiac Firebird SE. It has what they came with for those days... LG4 305 v8, 700-4r, Borg Warner 9 bolt rear axle w 3.27 gears.

It's still not fully unburied, but, here's a sneak preview. The push to dig out this particular derelict bay comes since I want to spend some of my spare time and attention to gathering parts for it. Also pictured, one of the gotta have it green mustangs, don't think that one has gotten driven for quite some time either.

This is the same firebird that's been derelict for over a decade now, but back in the day used it everywhere from New England to New Orleans and various cities I've lived in in between.

The faded and stained porno red interior is a nice touch.

I'm second owner on this one. Flash distorted some things but, there is legitimately some fading mostly confined to the sides of the seats.

Original carpets still pass for new through, among many other parts inside and no plastics degradation. many of my cars from the early 80s have that same bright bright red color.

Guess that makes me a pornstar? :unsure:
