Wow!  Looks awesome.  Hope Frank recovers quickly and can "git er done" soon thereafter.

The silver paint / red/black decal combo is my favorite!

Hey Heidi, VERY NICE!  Your Car Your tastes is all that matters!  I am contemplating that same bird decal in Black Blue on a Cameo White 1980 TA, but also have access to a multicolored 455HD bird decal for $100.  HMMM Decisions, Decisions.  Speedy recovery To Frank!

The car looks great, congrats. Do you plan on keeping the stock wheels or doing something custom

Congratulations Heidi! The car looks great!! It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks, as long as you guys are happy with it that is all that matters. Can't wait to see the decals on it!
Gone but not forgotten - 1979 Formula, 1980 Esprit.

Frank is doing better each day! 

He can't wait to get this interior done.  We got many new parts for the interior, so as soon as he can move his fingers more, he will get started on that.   Tony our youngest son has put the grilles back in, along with some other small items.




No we aren't missing the spoiler doo hickie thing underneath that goes between the wheel flares.  It is off so that they could do the marker lights! lol

Rear main seal needs to be done along with the rims, Qjet put back on with the shaker on, and decals.  In due time!!

It's been a long road, but finally it is all coming together!

Thanks Justin and all!!

Yep, don't want to push Frank too much with his hand and elbow.  He had surgery on it, and that's all we need is for him to damage something and set him back even more!

The car is looking good and that is kind of the way my car came home although I could drive it home. I still had to put the spoilers, flairs, window trim and a list of other things, so it was like your car not quiet ready to drive but sure looked purtty. I think putting the car back together was part of the fun although tedious since I really wanted to drive it. Well worth the wait though, it was fun to put something on the car and stand back and see it start taking shape as a Trans AM no longer just a Firebird.
