My "new" 1991 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Convertible
Here's my 1991 Trans Am convertible that I just bought a few days ago.
It's basically all original (however Exhaust was replaced with the same factory model)
*LB9 305 5.0 liter Tuned Port Injection engine.
*700r4 transmission (4 speed auto)
*Tan leather interior with factory CD player (wow!)
Needs a tune-up, vibrates pretty hard at idle (any help?)
Needs new drivers side window motor (power everything by the way... except for some seat adjustments)
And needs some body work (surface rust).
As far as I know... this is one of 3 youtube videos that are about a 91 Trans Am convertible (correct me if I'm wrong)
Only 555 were made for the 91 model year. Who knows how many are left.
Update on the 91 Trans Am
Walk around with a little burnout at the end. :)
Sorry it took me so long to upload my progress... I didn't have a camera for a while. Lots of stuff done to it since that last walkaround back in August 2009.
Here's most of the stuff I did in a nutshell:
*New front fenders and hood.
*New front suspension rebuild
*Lots of rust-killing done
*Paint
*New fuel injectors
*AC delete

1991 Trans am with LT1 motor.
Startin her up. It was weak at first but we got it running. Maybe have to tighten up the battery terminals or check to see if we have the dreaded GM heat soak starter. Still have a few more dings
First start on new rebuilt 305 engine from 1984 Z28 Camaro

Big Thanks to Sam and Fred for mechanics !
1985 Camaro Start to Finish
This video chronicles the transformation to my wife's first car, a 1985 Camaro. She bought the car in 1995 and when we first met she was driving it. We decided to sell it to my brother a few years after we got married. During the summer of 2008, I reacquired the car and secretly brought it back to its original glory.
