    Here's the original Salesman training video for the 1992 Firehawk. It was on UA-cam 10 yrs ago but the user deleted it. I found it on Facebook.
    Every Firehawk fan should see this video. You can tell not just how Revolutionary Aerodynamic it was. But also how Legendary it was destined to become when it reached it's full potential as a Hawk.
    Unfortunately during this time period 1991-1992 were the last years of the 3rd generation bodystyle. And people were waiting for the new 4th Gen Bodystyle coming in 1993, so sales were low as well as production. And it did not help the fact that this Firehawk cost between $40,000 to $50,000. Which was more than a Stock Trans Am. The 1992 Firebirds & Camaros were the last American F-Body's to be built at the Plant here in Van Nuys California. Before the new 1993 redesigned 4th Generation was built in Ontario Canada and shipped down here. But on the bright side, the 4th Gen could never match the 3rd Gen's Bullet shaped aerodynamics as low as 0.29 Drag Coefficient. Cutting through the wind like a Hot knife through butter. And even the Last 2002 Trans Am with the WS6 RAM AIR 6-Speed Equipped LS1 making 350 Horsepower & 350 lb-fts
    Torque could not Outperform the 1992 Firehawk from 10 years prior with it's Corvette equipped ZF-6 Speed. Aluminum Driveshaft, Aluminum Hood, A 355 V8 Rodeck Block V8 with forged internals making 350hp & 390 lb-ft of Torque. 17x9.5 Wheels and The Same Brembo Brakes that the Ferrari F40 uses. The 0-60 times were 4.6 seconds and 13.0 @ 107 1/4 Mile.
    Only a modified LS1 could beat the 92 Hawk stock. They were Beasts. You could call it the Hellcat of 1992.
    But I have it on very good authority The '92 Hawks could easy hit 12.9 1/4 and 4.2 0-60 times. It really depends on how good the driver is.
    My personal best on my 1992 Camaro Z28 with the 5.7 350 TPI Making 245hp & 345 ft-lb Torque automatic with no modifications other than the Flowmaster 80's series Cat-Back 3 inch Exhaust, got a 14.4 Quarter Mile at 102 and 0-60 in 5.5 seconds with the original 16" wheels and 3.23 Gears. The Firehawk has 3.54 gears. Some sticky rubber will help the factory times.

    @thehoodscoop1969 5 років тому

    Nice work (former Firehawk owner here) FYI there's a guy in Alton with an original SLP TOTL muffler off a 95 Firehawk for sale. if you want his info let me know. Quick note, to get the seats to look closer to the 91-92 style you can use 93-99 graphite leather Formula headrests (smaller than the TA "GT" ones you have on there.) Also the Hawks used the stock 85-92 Firebird base tail lights which are pretty cheap. Again awesome job for the money you spent.

    • @budgetbuilds8522
      @budgetbuilds8522  5 років тому +3

      I wasn't going for a full on clone. I like the trans am taillights better than the stock firebird ones. Good to know about the seats though. My email is in the comments if you want to send that info on the exhaust. Thanks for the info and comments on the video. I will have more on this car in the near future as I bought another parts car with some goodies I will be installing.

  • @tj_gsomething_
    @tj_gsomething_ 5 років тому +5

    The story is what makes this car special. Dad and Daughter did good!
    My only question is why the TA tail lights instead of Firebirds when it sounds like you had a pair already? It's a dead giveaway that it's not a true Firehawk. Until you pop the engine and the SLP intake is gone.
    Beautiful car though.

    • @budgetbuilds8522
      @budgetbuilds8522  5 років тому +5

      I liked how the 4th gen formulas had the TA tail lights. I like these tail lights better. I wasn't trying to do a nut and bolt clone. Just trying to capture the essence of the firehawk.

    Very good video, would even recommend it!
    However, it won't work for us, because we retired in a 30 motorhome in Idaho.
    Still, I managed to find an exceptionally clean 98 v6 Firebird, and dropped an ebay turbo in it.
    The idea was to build a modern version of the Rally Firebird.
    Meaning 18 inch redline, low profiles over 18 inch replicas of the chrome five spoke that came with so many Pontiacs in the 70's
    Total cost?
    5500 so far, but the interior is still perfectly preserved!

    • @budgetbuilds8522
      @budgetbuilds8522  4 роки тому

      An ls 6spd would have been another 1k more. I could have torn into the 5.3 and did cam, heads, headers, and intake(to fit under the hood) to get power levels closer to the 383 stroker. Parts and machine work are not cheap. Yes I could have done a stock 5.3 swap for around the same money or a few dollars. cheaper

      This is a gen 2 lt1. The correct engine would have been a gen 1 350 with the SLP T-ram intake putting out 350hp. The engine in the car puts out an additional 100hp over the orig firehawk.

    I bought a 2000 Firehawk in good condition. No engine problems, only cosmetics for 4,000$. 😂 120k Miles. Don’t tell me I can’t!

      I didn't say a 2000, I said 1992. You can get a lot of firehawks for under $5000 years 93-02. The 91-92 firehawk had only 25 examples made.

    Great clone. But just like any other clone will never be worth the same money a true fire hawk would be. Vin # tells you everything and determines the true value.

      I agree. With a clone though you don't mind driving it and having a good time without worries.

    Why does he sound like he is being cross examined? $5,000 is questionable.

      Mac I know you own a real 1992 firehawk. I don't pass it off as real. I like the graphics. I know this is a 2 sided debate.

    Common u spent way more than 5k. U could have saved all that extra money u made selling parts u wouldn't never completed the car finished with 5k alone. Ur trying to find a way to say u only spent 5k when u know u spent way more.

    • @budgetbuilds8522
      @budgetbuilds8522  4 роки тому +1

      That was stated in the video. What I said was I only had 5k out if my pocket to build the car. Yes I could have bought and parted cars out and made pure money. What I was doing however was showing that you can build something fun on a limited starting budget and never having to add more money on it.

    • @macario5448
      @macario5448 4 роки тому

      But let's be honest.
      Would u have done this car with only 5k?
      No u wouldn't. U had to sell and make more money to do ao.
      So how much money does it add up with all u spent?

    • @budgetbuilds8522
      @budgetbuilds8522  4 роки тому

      I used parts from parts cars so I paid nothing for those but If I give a used value to those parts, the car probably has 8.5-9k in it

    • @macario5448
      @macario5448 4 роки тому

      In other word it took about 9k to do this project. That's the actual amount spent on it.

    • @budgetbuilds8522
      @budgetbuilds8522  4 роки тому +1

      That wasn't the point of the build. The whole point was if you had 5k you could build a cool project without any extra money out of pocket. Thanks for watching.
