I also would be interested in seeing what the Buick shroud looks like. I saw one for a Corvette, but question where their electrical connector plugs in compared to the firebird, and whether it would interfere without some modifications.

Previous owner of my old '72 455HO GTO installed the Buick shield on it. Even though incorrect for my car, I left it on there when I detailed the engine bay 'cause it SURE helps keep the compressor front seal oil from coating the hood, but unfortunately it doesn't protect the inner fender, etc.

I was thinking about that also. When mine was leaking, it was all over the inner fender, and dripping on the ground.

Took the daughter out on another driving lesson. She did much better. This time it was rabbits. On our 20 mile drive, four different bunnies (well, maybe it could have been the same rabbit stalking us) ran alongside us and then tried to dart out in front of the car.

We even tempted fate and drove past a local ranch where they raise bison and cattle. I fully expected Alex Karris A.K.A. "Mongo" to be blocking the road riding on the back of a Brahma Bull.
