It was hard coming up with a catchy opening line for today's offering seeing as there are 2 main influences that drove me to this shirt. Being the age that I am, it's safe to assume that I watched Smokey & The Bandit and Knight Rider growing up so Pontiac Firebirds, to me, were THE badass car to have. I eventually owned 2, a '94 V6 Firebird, and a '94 V8 Firebird Formula.
The V6 was a basic model, slut red, dirt slow, but I did a few things to it that made it a bit quicker, look better, and sound like a V8. Best thing about it was that it was reliable. The V8 was a fully loaded Formula model, triple black, looked mean, and was a bit quicker. When I was done with it, it was downright evil and sounded like Godzilla. One person, who collected Firebirds called it "powered by violence" the first time he experienced it. I loved it, but it wasn't reliable at all...but I digress.
I got this shirt in 02/03 from an online company called Motor Brands USA (I actually have a few of their shirts which will be featured here). I loved those cars, still do, and this shirt spoke to me.Bought this here: http://www.motorbrandsusa.com/
