I bought this Sunbird from my cousin in 2005 and being the third owner, the car was in rough shape but it wasn't anything too far from impossible to resurrect. The body was strait, paint was decent, and interior was dirty. I am still young and have managed to do most of the work myself with the great support from this site. Working on the car has taught me much of what I know about basic mechanics and that is invaluable. Far from being a completely restored Sunbird, it is close to what I set out to build.
