Nose Job!
 
The Firebird has been under the knife!! We have been working on getting the front bumper to fit the front fenders & hood.. Should have it wrapped up by next week & off to the body shop.. We have a few more items in design for this car that will compliment the body mods...

I bet you guys have been wondering what happen to this Firebird... It has been in the body shop!! We have a few parts in design for the grill inserts for the front bumper... & few other surprises for later!

Update!
 
We have been behind on updates on the Firebird.. Finally got it out of the body shop from the first stage of body work.. We have some fine tuning to do on the rear bumper & still have to figure out what we are doing with front head lights..

Have been working on the firewall to sub-frame support bars with a new design on the for A/C bulkhead... Next is to get the plumbing finished, some custom valve covers, get the wiring in place, & whole bunch of things.. I am sure we will be coming out with a few new items..

Since we are putting a back-up camera in the key hole.. We made this little lever that bolts in place of the blade for the key cylinder & will have some kind of cable pulling from the license plate/fuel access..

The transmission on this car is out of a 2005 GTO.. so we ordered a B&M replacement shifter but did not like the way it held the shifter in place.. Made a new retaining plate.. with shifter access plate from the interior side..
