There was Too much power and Even with Full race slicks-it would just spin.. I had lots of fun with this 2nd gen -But with Regret ,I Had to sell it to fund another project-But I kept the Motor-The guy I sold it too Was gonna restore it back to original-I sold it to him with the original Snowflakes&amp; unmolested shaker = </div></div>

Man, that's a pretty car. I've always though second-gen Firebirds were just about the sexiest car ever made. Unfortunately, the only one I've ever owned was a rusty, beat-to-the-ground, crap brown on tan 72 Formula 400.

Poor old thing was slow as a Citation towing a three story house up a mountain, but with a set of rusty Cherry Bombs, it did a great job of scaring the rollerskate chicks at Sonic. And that was enough to earn it &quot;cool&quot; status at my high school.
