Wow, how cool is that! Mazzei is not far from us, are you local?

Great build. The history behind the car is awesome. I bought my '69 Firebird soon after I turned 15 years old and I have owned it for the past 29 years. The Bird is not just a car it is part of the family.

I like the color of the car. Keep us posted.

Thanks.

I'm from Antioch. I'll have to come out and check out your shop. I'm in the middle of doing a LS swap in my bird now so she's down for a while.

We got everything done and Tim picked up his car Saturday.Yesterday I got an Email saying that his face hurt from smiling so much! I think the car really achieved our goal of keeping the original look and theme. It drives and handles extremely well and the engine has a very broad torque band. The pictures I took don't do the color justice, but it is beutiful and compliments the wheels well.
