      Great to see another Bird on the forum!

      Does your girlfriend have a sister?

      LoL... no... no sister, she is by herself. She is the daughter of the owner of Barry's speed shop. We did the TV show "wrecks to riches" a few years back... This firebird was the next car inline for the show before they cut bugget on us... She bought it from her dad for $500.00, not too bad but it was only half a car...lol

      Glad to see another bird on this forum. Kind of tired of reading about camaros.

      I was wondering if you were connected to Barry's in anyway. Saw a reference to Barry's in your girlfriend X-mas gift note.

      Awesome and congrats! Good luck on your 'bird. I'll be doing similar types of things to my '67 Bird, so I look forward to seeing what you do and hopefully learning from it.

      Welcome, Yes good to see another Pontiac on board. Girlfriend sounds like a keeper, especially since her dad is the owner of Berry's Speed Shop.

      I hope you are planning to keep it Pontiac powered.

      Thanks everyone! Ya they are both keepers.
      We have a fresh 326 Pontiac with a mild cam just settin in the shop. I'm not lookin for alot of power, more just a car that will handle very good. So I'll stick that engine in it with fuel injection and a 5 or 6 speed and just have fun with it.
