Some early ASC Firebird Verts for sale...

Thought I would share what I found this morning.

1) This one has been on ebay before, nice looking Formula Vert, low miles to boot.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ponti...RCHQ3aUSQ3a101

2) This one is new, it is a nice looking Black/Black GTA 350 Vert http://amarillo.craigslist.org/cto/1088425458.html Great price for 34K miles $8500... It is #74 of the 141

I guess if you do not know any better, you could mistake the 88-89 4 spke steering wheel for an airbag...

I agree tho...

Re: Some early ASC Firebird Verts for sale...

Sure looks like nothing is moving right now... I did notice that the GTA vert in HI finally is no longer available, I wonder if it sold... if it was anywhere but HI I would have probably picked it up...

Re: Some early ASC Firebird Verts for sale...

It is a lot of peoples dream car...

Unfortunately this one has a salvage title history, not currently but apparently it was in an impound lot around 1991, the current title shows clear.

I just did my weekly custom coach convertible search and found twelve different '82 - '89 Firebird/TA/GTA convertibles for sale. Sure, part of that is because they always come out in early spring, but part of it is that nothing is selling right now and lots of people are selling toys they might keep in a better economy.

I think they are a sweet looking car and very under priced.

This is a bit off topic, but that car is a 4-seater and was built by International Coach.
