Wanted a nice driver 68 or 69 Firebird 400

As you can see the bumper and grills are not correct. I have the receipt that shows the bumper and grills being replaced by the body shop in the early 90s. Here's another pic. I pulled what was left on the broadcast sheet from under the seat and it shows a hood tach. The PHS report should be interesting.

I guess the bumper and grill were right afterall, although replaced. I got the PHS report today. It was a 350 HO car with hood tach, fold down, disc brakes, rally II wheels, PS, Rear ant, Deluxe int, remote mirror, posi, 4 speed, console, etc, etc. Still a cool car but not the 400 you were looking for.

Yeah not a 400, but still a cool car. I'm still working on a Cuda I know about too. Too bad old Mercury police cars aren't worth anything.

Did you ever call about that? Just curious. If not, I might call later this week just for the heck of it and see what I can find out. At least this time I'd not be upset if they shrug me off or do like they did last time.

I snapped a picture of the front of the '69 I walked by the other day. If you're still looking, I can maybe go ask them if it's a 400 and find out the overall condition and if they are selling it.

I wasn't home Friday. I'll call this Friday. Working nights sucks. I can't get anything done during the week until Friday.

[Tim Greer]

Oh, I hear that. The company I contract for just changed my shift to start 4 hours later, so I feel your pain (though I'm only going to be on now from noon to 8 PM, but it still affects my day--and my wife's mood because she wants to spend time with me after she gets off work). Anyway, good luck with that.

The company I work for makes air conditioner valves. This is our busy time of year. I'm working 11 hours a day. I am on vacation next week though.

[Tim Greer]

Air conditioner valves, eh? Can you get me a deal? :-) I work from home, my office is up stairs. As heat rises, so does the stress of my job--especially with computer systems pushing out hot air on top of that.

Not that I don't have air conditioning (also have a pool, but), the Summer's here get about 114 to 119 for two+ weeks out of the year, so even running an air conditioner all day isn't too much of a help.

So, working nights here is worse, since the heat has built up as much as it can by 6 or 7 PM. I do have network cables going down stairs and a laptop if it gets too bad, but I really need a break. I don't even know why I'm rambling. :-)

[Chris396]

They are supposed to call me back. We'll see.
