Firebird 88 v6 manual - aussie

Here's my latest car. first firebird ever owned. hell, first GM car i've ever owned. Im a ford guy, my daily drive is a Falcon XR8 ute. (orange car in background).


Paid a lot for it, but it's pretty rare car out here in australia. Unfortunately our roads authority is a big narky so i have to get it converted to RHD to get it licensed. Once i've got it on the road i'll worry about fixing it up/restoring it. so far i've just added some new hood struts and added a stock radio to fill the ugly hole. its a 2.8 ltr v6 manual



if you troll a lot of firebird forums you've probably met me



here is is in camoflage

Nice car, your name looks familiar to a game I used to play... Motor city online.

Looks to be in good shape! That really sucks that you're forced to cut it up to make it RHD.. while you're at it I'd suggest a small block and v8 tranny swap to make it a little more fun Welcome to TGO! There are quite a few members around here from down under.. glad to have another!
