Rebuilding My First Car Part 4: Small Steps

In today's video, I start working on some rust repair, removing the rear suspension, and cleaning up various parts of the car. There are a lot of random parts to this video; I had a lot of footage that wouldn't be enough for one video so I decided to just make this a working video.

If you haven't seen the first episode, I just bought my first car (an 84 Pontiac Firebird) after selling it 21 years ago to buy furniture for my house. It's in really bad shape, but I'm going to restore it.

The plan for this car is to repair the rust, do a complete suspension change, restore the interior, and LS swap it with a manual transmission.
