THE "Firechicken"

[bottledbird68]

Ok, here it is. My official project log for my 68 firebird. I've owned this car for 18 years this coming august and it's my baby.
It's been sitting now for about 2.5 years since I put 2 rods through the oil pan on the built Pontiac 455 that was in it.
Time for a serious update to bring the car into this century and make it more fun/useful. Follow along if you care

Here's some shots as it sat this morning, finally back in the garage after 2.5 years. Ignore the dirt, sitting outside on dirt ground for that long will do that to you. Paint really is shiny underneath.


Here's a good shot of the whole car sitting outside right after I scattered the motor:


Engine bay shots. Still got half the motor there. Already sold off the ported aluminum head, intake, carb, and big solid roller cam to fund other projects:



And here's a couple of the interior. Kind of a mess from sitting but a lot of it's getting changed anyhow so whatever:
