Evapo-Rust, amazing stuff. Revealed original rear spiral shocks, clips, brake hardware and the fact that these things had a bare minimum mist of black paint on the chassis and other parts.

You'll have to give us more of its back story. Must be low mileage as it's in very good condition. It's a good reference vehicle. What does the red label on the dash bezel say?

http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...d.php?t=727976 Car is very original, except a Ram Air IV shortblock replaced the original III under warranty in '71 back at LEE Pontiac in Boonville where it was purchased. The dealership just put the III stuff on top of the IV shortblock - I'm going IV all the way now with heads, intake etc. Putting the Turbo 400 safely aside in favor of an M20 4-speed changeover. Paint daubs everywhere on this thing. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

"BEWARE THE FIREBIRD TRANS AM"
Yup.He also had a light inside the Shaker that lit up when the door popped open. Some real 1970s touches for sure. |

So, you're converting it from auto to manual?

Nice looking car. Looks like a great project. I'd like to see more of your EvapoRust spray system that you can partially see in post 26. How long did you keep spraying the car to get it this clean?
