Re: found myself a firechicken
Body looks solid, except for the dent. Interior...well...it'll keep ya busy. Being that old you'd probably have to replace alot of stuff anyway. What is it an 83-85? I'd rather have to replace/repair interior than body parts. Good luck!

That bird needs a lot of TLC.
Looks pretty solid to work from, though! A little love and effort and that girl will be sexy as hell

Re: found myself a firechicken
if your looking for 400hp+ wouldnt a 350 be cheaper to build? seeing as there are a lot more parts for that type engine and there usually the most used wich makes prices go down a little? im not sure so just asking.

Re: found myself a firechicken
Firechicken? Or trans am? I know 82-84 formula and trans am both had the same hood, trans am hood scoop was functional, don't think so on the formula, but that was stock. It was an easy mod to make the scoop functional on a formula. Either way, parts are fairly easy to find.
