For those that were paying attention to last weeks monster garage, they pulled that same Firebird (it was a Firebird NOT a Formula) backwards with the tractor puller they built.

And yeah it looked like the back window already had a hole in it before the guy jumped through it.

A ratty base car that has little potential for anything, should be destroyed.

Ok lets put it this way.


I'ved owned both IROC-Z and Trans Am


They're the same damn thing aside from the fact my Am was much faster and overall better than the Camaro interior wise.

An IROC is just a Camaro with fancy stickers.

The Firebird and TA have definite different body styling.


I liked how they guy went right through the back window though.

If ya need into your car fast, what a way to do it.

I never thought I'd see people argue over Camaro's and Firebird's. I have an 86 bird and I love it to death, but I would love to have a Camaro too.

If you just got rid of your t.v. you wouldn't waste your brain space on stuff like that. Got rid of mine over 8 years ago and couldn't be happier. I spend more time with cars, racing, friends and family. Only time I miss it is for things like the world series and 9/11 etc...otherwise it's all I'd rather detail my "Z."
