This is more or less when the forum crashed, so now we're up to date. As I said, I was hoping the old post will be back. Maybe it will be some day.
From here on out, it's current news.
So while the forum was in limbo, I continued on.
Not so many pictures, but a lot of work was done

Got the car off the trolley.
Brake and fuel lines went in. Gas tank went in. Front suspension, rear as well.
I then managed to get it down on it's wheels.

So now that it was safely on the ground, I could get inside.
I started putting in sound deadening material I had laying around for the past year now, while waiting on more stock.

Put in some more new parts and steering goodies. The boxes of stuff are getting less and less, as well as the various baggies of bolts and nuts.

I don't have pics, but I also made some rear seatbelt brackets in the trunk. We don't have top mount or package tray mount seatbelts this side of the pond, so I made a plan. It's to expensive to import the Firebird seatbelts. I bolted the bracket and seatbelt retractor to the trunk floor, took is up through a slot in the package tray that I had cut, drilled and filed, over the rear seatback. I'll have to take a pic.
I'm still pondering on the front seatbelts, but this is the mock-up
