I am very, very,very, very, very jelaous with envy. I don't have the bucks and/or knowledge to do that.

Lots of nice birds on this thread, I can see a few hours spent here checking all these rides out.

Here's mine. It started it's life as a 77 Esprit. As it sits in the photo it has a 406 with Edelbrock rpm heads, cam, intake, forged rods, forged pistons, Tremac TR 3550 5 speed, Hotchkiss suspension, Baer brakes, ROH 3 piece wheels 18x10 rear & 18x9 front, Goodyear Eagle GSD3 Tyres.
Since the photo the engine went so now it is waiting on a 461 E headed solid roller camed monster from Mr P Body and a Tremac TKO 600. Cheers Mal

I like the seats, Bill. I had to ditch the stock seats in my first T/A and install Fiero seats. I don't know what I'm going to do with my 10th Anniversary, but the seats have to go!

I finally got my camera to work, so hopefully it works on here. This is the '78 I bought in Florida on the 4th of this month. I got it up here (SC) last Thursday. It had some '85 Buick GN wheels on it. I actually picked up these snowflakes about a week before I went to Florida. Got back and blasted and repainted them and had the tires mounted before the car was delivered. Had some flowmasters put on it yesterday. It had super turbos on it. I thought it might have had a much higher duration cam in it and the flows confirmed that lol.... Runs and drives awesome.
