I caved and bought him a Formula. Wasn't going to but he has a lot of work ahead of him...Lots of time to get it done before he gets his license. It was his 14th Bday present for Friday...

Congrats!
I use to race circle track with that same body style firebird...
I like a good subframe vehicle...
Sub frame connectors are so easy to put on those birds...
Good luck and great choice...IMO!

LOL, I remember my first car was an Eagle Premier. It was pretty nice, until the brakes went out as I was driving and got wrapped around a tree.
