I’m listing this on firstgenfirebird.org before it goes out to the public. I’ve received enormous help on this site (Thank you all!) over several years and will give true FB enthusiasts the first opportunity here.
PHS Documented - look at the Build Sheet and the Window Sticker. Car was sold in Amarillo, TX and came from AZ to Kansas City. Original floor pan and trunk pan (both POR-15 top and bottom)-only half quarters replaced – all else is original. I spent years and 110% tracking down all original and the best new OEM parts, screws, clamps, etc. available. That said, it’s not 100%... Highly optioned; original Alpine Blue painted in 2021 (Z’s Radical Rods); original Teal interior; front disk brakes, but no tilt (build sheet says the opposite); electric trunk release is damaged and does not work.
Frame off restoration 2020 (<2,000 miIes). I have at least 70 receipts (mostly Ames and Classic), but purchased from anyone and everywhere I could get the best original or OEM new part.
