Long-time friend of the Gallery, Gilbert Carreon, owns this 1996 Firehawk.
Gilbert writes: "When Pontiac brought back the ram air cars and hoods with the 4th generation birds, I fell in love with them. It looks evil and powerful just parked. Once again on eBay, I saw this car, a 1996 Firebird Formula LT1 WS-6, with 6 speed. It had 116K miles, but the owner had kept the car up nice, and had just been serviced. Always looking for a bargain, this one joined us in late 2006. My plan is to us this car for small weekend trips, to the like of Monterey, San Francisco, Palm Springs, San Diego, or any where we can drive with the T-Tops off, and radio blasting." Gilbert has been a heavy contributor to the models section of this website supplying with me great images for the majority of the kits I have on display. Recently, Gilbert finally took the time to send me some pics of the several different Firebirds he owns. He also owns: 1969 Firebird 400 Convertible seen over at '69 Firebirds Lot#3 1985 Autoforms Roadster Convertible Trans Am seen over at Auto Forms Lot#1 1998 Formula seen over at '98 Firebirds Lot#2 1999 Firehawk (seen below) |

This Firehawk is #132 and its owned by
Mary Collings. Mary and her husband actually purchased a Comp T/A first
(seen at the 1997 Comp T/A Lot#1) and were so impressed with it they
wanted another SLP car. Less than 6 months later the order for this Firehawk was
submitted. Here's what Ken had to say about the Firehawk: "We loved the Comp T/A so much, we decided to become a two SLP car family and get Mary a Firehawk. After all, she is a performance car person like myself! SLP didn't let us down. What an awesome machine. And looks! WOW. "Scrappy" is what I nicknamed it. It looks like it would pull up behind you, bite off your tail pipes, and spit them on your hood as it roared past...! The wheels are killer too!" Here's the equipment listing for Mary's Firehawk:

The first '02 Firehawk on the site and perhaps the last year of production
of these awesome Firebirds. This all black poncho is owned by Steve
Jurcevic. Steve writes: "Hi there! I've been browsing your site for quite some time now and finally decided it was time to add my car to the list. I'm a third time Firebird owner, actually, I'm a third time Trans Am owner. My first car was a 1979 WS6 T/A that I bought when I turned 16. Second was my 1997 Trans Am, before I traded it in I had added just about every bolt-on and then some (ported heads/intake, LT4 HOT Cam kit, 1 3/4" headers, 3" exhaust, 3.73 gears, shift kit and all the upgraded suspension components). But the car I'm submitting is my latest purchase, a 2002 Firehawk T/A, it's Canadian car #C026. Estimated production for 2002 is approximately 50 Canadian cars and 1300 US cars. I plan to keep it pretty much stock but I don't doubt that I'll add a few things as the years pass."

I hope the pictures I've attached are not too large. Thanks in advance, Steve Jurcevic '02 Firehawk C026 http://www.2002firehawk-c26.net |
