A special TransAm

A FireHawk, not to many of these around, low miles and a young owner.

Step son and daughter between them own three original Firehawks.

Two are in storage and one is stripped down to bare chassis/body with tube front-end etc.

This is NOT one but is step-daughter's 572 ci street-racer. She did engine-swap and rewiring herself.
ETA: I have been corrected, this one IS a Firehawk body/chassis/wheels. I can't keep up with all their cars. Stepson is currently in Austin swapping a Mercedes V12 into 1980 Mercedes SLC.

Radar might be but I'll bet dollars to donuts the cop aiming it isn't and that car sticks out like a sore thumb in most traffic I've been in lately.

my tickets in my Guards Red 911 were radar and the guy just aims at the traffic, looking down the street at oncoming cars.

This is an Anniversary Edition Firehawk but standard Firehawk is detailed as well

IIRC You have to actually own a Firehawk to get parts for one.

And a SunBird I see quite often, another of the only one I ever saw cars. 1978, the body is pretty straight and NO visible rust, very strange for a Vega. The car you could hear rust on the showroom floor.
