Good day to all. My name is Ben and I'm new to the site. I'm in the Pensacola, fl area. I have a 71 Firebird Formula that's getting restored and made better. It's got a traditional Pontiac motor(455 HO) and a t56 going in it. I'll post pics when I get the chance. Should be over the weekend.

Welcome Ben. Great to see another Pontiac guy on the site. The Lat-g members have some amazing experience and are a wealth of knowledge to learn from. I'm still a noob on the site but I've learned more than ever expected when I first signed up.

We need pics!

Here's how the car started.

Couple mid way.

Heres before I left on another deployment.

Seats and steering column are getting redone. People doing them said they're gonna look good when done. Seen some of their other seats and they look good, so I can't wait.

Not many of us left. Found another pic.

I know it's a mess in there, but it's what I got since I'm gone alot on deployments.

Looks great Ben. You have done a ton of work on it. Love the white Procar seats.
