Now to be fair, 1st gens have way more available as far as replacement parts. 2nd gen firebird stuff just isn't out there and that equals tons of custom stuff and big dollars.
If it were a 69 Camaro then I'd bet it would be gone already.
I'm glad you passed.
Save your coin, we'll find you something. "done early" that's a good one.

Remember something about RUST/ROT.... If you can see it... there's more lurking under and thru... Rust isn't "just surface" rust unless the car has been stripped to bare metal and is just being worked on and the idiot doing the work is unaware of the products out there to put on the metal so that it DOESN'T get surface rust.
When you see the rot in the bottom of those fenders and doors... and rocker panels.... RUN FOR YOUR LIFE! Because you've already stated your budget and your budget doesn't cover anywhere near the cost to repair that stuff let alone build a car when your done with fixing that kind of stuff. OMG.... You have no idea what these cars can look like under what your eyes can see. Let me point you to a thread of a car that is owned by a gentleman on here that owns a body and paint shop... and this is his personal car!
This was the GOOD METAL left of his '69 Camaro....
