My Greenbird. 1976 Metalime Green Pontiac Firebird Esprit

Post by Greenbird76 on Fri Jan 13, 2012 11:08 pm

I have done a quite extensive mechanical and structural restoration over the past 2 years. the car still needs paint which will not be done right now. My goal for this winter is to have the rear end rebuilt with 3:73 gears to make the car more highway friendly. And to restore the radiator support and properly align the hood and fenders after I replace the support bushings. Her are some recent pictures.

The undercarriage, suspension, exhaust, lines, etc. look brand new.



The car probably handles like it rolled off the assemby line. Nice work.
