1981 Firebird -Ground-Up Restoration! High Performance Restomod- Outstanding
This 1981 Firebird is a “ground-up” restored restomod that has been meticulously restored and upgraded with top-of-the-line components. It is powered by a 388 aluminum head stroker engine with Eagle internals and balanced by Kevin Pranger at Great Lakes Engines. The transmission is a 700r4 built by Bruce at The Trans Shop, and the rear end is a DTS built 10 bolt with 4:88 gears and aluminum girdle. Fuel injection is handled by a Holley Sniper system, and the engine is tuned by Power Dynamics. The car also features a 3 row aluminum radiator with dual 12" electric fans.
The brakes are 4 wheel Wilwood vented disc brakes, and the exhaust is a mandrel bent dual exhaust with Flowmasters on Hedman big tube headers.
The exterior of the car is painted in a custom grey with gold flake paint and hot rod black and orange accents. The underside of the car is painted in black rust resistant paint and has been rustproofed.
The suspension has been upgraded with urethane suspension bushings, new shocks, frame connectors, and rebuilt leaf springs. All new brake lines have been installed, as well as AN- fuel and transmission lines. The battery is trunk mounted in an aluminum battery box.
The interior of the car features Corbeau seats with a 5 point harness. The car also has a 6 point cage painted to match the car, a detachable steering wheel with column painted to match the car, a digital dash, and an Alpine stereo with Rockford Fosgate speakers.
Everything in the car is new or rebuilt/restored. The car drives like a dream and is super comfortable. It has been referred to as “better than new”.
