Thanks for posting the pics Dan! the car will look great when I find some original honeycombs or rallys for it...

Noooo . . . . Why make such a nice original a rolling cliche? EVERYONE slaps on some mags. This car has poverty caps with trim rings. Doesn't it look nice enough as a good example of a car that's hard to find stock to begin with?

Relax.. I won't make a rolling cliche out of this bird. Those poverty caps will get a correct set of rubber and come out for short drives or shows, but not for daily driving.

That code 26 paint which in the pontiac book is called Lucerne Blue.
Just put the new BF goodrich Radial TA's on all four corners and am ready to leave for Montana in the morning.

Well, we're bunked for the night @ Rapid City, SD. Will be going to see Mt. Rushmore in the morning and will take some pics then. Hope to post some tomorrow evening!!

The Firebird has performed well so far.
Only maintenance is adding a little oil, and changing the fuel filter which collected some rust from gas tank, I think.
A/C does not work, so windows are open and my left arm is sun burned from hanging it out the window!

Car delivered to Helmut in Eureka, MT !
Just a little over 2,000 miles driven to get her to her new home!
I've sent Dan Vasic some pictures to post for me.
