I figured I’d post this up to see if there’s any interest before I come to my senses. I love this car it has been my toy for years, only driven on weekends and to car shows. Takes long road trips like a champ. Only been caught in rain once or twice. Southern car its whole life not a spec of rust! It’s a 1988 Trans Am GTA ‘Notchback’. That’s right one of only 624~ made. Yes it is original (have the documents from PHS to prove it.) 5.7L/A4 Car Body has 136k on it Motor has 37k (original 5.0L was replaced) Transmission has 37k on rebuild (with cooler) Mods: Engine: Mild port and polish on plenum SLP Runners w/ mild port and polish ZZ9 Cam. (great cam, sounds almost stock) 24# injectors 1.6RR CAI High flow oil pump. Exhaust: SLP 1¾” Headers Off Road Y-Pipe Hooker Catback exhaust. Suspension: (All less than 1 year old) Sub-Frame Connectors Wonderbar (steering brace) LCA Relocation Eibach Pro-Kit New shock/struts (Monroe sensa-trac) Misc: New headliner Alarm /w remote start (works too!) Dark tint all around. Chip from PCMforless Fuzion ZRi Tires (60-70% tread left) 9-bolt with 3.70’s All smog is gone and the AC system was replaced with a fully working delete box. AC never worked anyways so at least you still have heat and defrost. Now on to some details. Interior wise new headliner looks great. Front seats are good, rear seats are fair-good. Carpets Fair-good. Doors Fair. Dash looks great but there is some cracking on the edges that butt up against the doors. Digital dash, EVERYTHING WORKS! The exterior is where I feel this car needs the most improvement. The paint is a definite 10 footer. Looks great driving down the road and from a distance but take the time to look it over and you’ll see problem areas. Front bumper and Hood have minimal damage. (see pictures) If I had to rate everything: Engine/Drivetrain: 9/10 Suspension: 7/10 Interior: 7/10 Exterior: 6/10 In summary it’s a great car. A blast to drive and gets tons of comments everywhere I go. Not many have ever seen a notchback in person and despite its flaws it’s won a few trophies but it is not a show queen. Drives, handles, and runs great. Car is located in Greensboro, NC. Any questions please ask or come check it out in person. You can also reach me through my email address, salsashark@techemail.com Asking $6,800 I feel this is far below what the car is worth and way more has gone into it obviously, but we all know how this car hobby works . I am open to offers but don't low ball; I would rather keep this car than sell it too cheap. Here’s some pics, All are recent pics (less than a year old at most) I will take pictures of anything anybody wants once I give her a bath. (pollen season… not good for black cars) The third picture is an older one but its the only one I have that shows off the hood/bumper.

I know thats a long post but I'm very picky and detailed about my cars. Here's a few more pics I have laying around.

Change of price slightly. $6,500 OBO.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

4th gen traitor

hah, its not because of that POS.... I may sell that too...

Whats a matter with your LS1 POS?

Bump for the sweet piece of history too

Its a fun car to drive, i owned it a few years ago, i helped with the build. Good luck selling it!

So close....and just out of my price range

unless you happen to want a '91 3.1 rs camaro and some cash haha.

I live in Charlotte, I'll get the word out about this beautiful car.

do you know your paint code by chance?

Interested in a fast bike at all? I just posted it on here. If not thats cool too. She is beautiful.

thanks for the offer but I am not a bike guy. I need four wheels under me.

Got any more engine pics?
Or, best case, any undercarriage shots?

no, but I can certainly go get some. undercarriage may be a bit harder but i'll see what I can do.

i cant believe your selling that...im [same s/n] from TFB

yea man. I don't really want to, but I figured I'd see if there's any interest in it. It's not being enjoyed like it should. I have 0 free time...

I have a Suzuki Z400 for trade if you still have it, that's the 4 wheeler..

I have quick question for ya man, Im currently in the Army and deployed in the sandbox right now. (But will be home in week to 10 days). If you haven't sold it yet I'd be interested and have cash. Thanks

was wondering if you were interested in trades plus cash? have a 88 formula 305 with 350 cams flowmaster exhaust. and im moving down to wilmington soon. well let me know

Thanks for all the interest. Sorry, I've been really busy to update. Was going to take picutres today but of course it rains.... hopefully after work tomorrow I can get some uploaded.

Can't really do trades right now as I've got too many vehicles as it is.

Ok Got a chance to take a few pictures today. Let me apologize for how dirty the car is. It's been raining here a lot lately and I've been and still am ridiculously busy. I know thats no excuse but she will be all cleaned up when someone wants to come look at it.


more to follow....

Also I don't think I mentioned that like many others the pull down hatch motor doesn't work. Still opens and closes manually just fine.

If you have any questions feel free to ask. I know the last pic is a bit strange, It's back where the muffler is located. Best I could do for a pic, the whole underside looks that good if not better, real clean.

i noticed the ignition cylinder was turned into the on position without the key. is it broken?

My 87 does that. Dunno why.

In the Off posttion, it is locked in place & the steering wheel is locked like it should be.

But when running, the key can be pulled out, with the engine still running.

Previous owner installed an alarm with remote start. I don't know how they installed it but you don't need the key in to turn it to the on postion. Everything works fine though including the remote start.

Is the car still for sale? My block just cracked, so I pretty much have to get a new car now ha. I'll PM you if it's still up.

yea, It's still for sale. couple offers on the table but nothing serious.

Bump. No reasonable offer refused.

Just had my DD totaled and really need this sold...

$5,300 OBO!

PM Sent

Is the notchback still for sale?

-Dane

so nice ,bump to the top

is this car still 4 sale?? if so id trade my 97 bmw m3 for it, or sell it, to buy it.

also wondering if car is still for sale, located in wilmington

yes this car is still for sale. All pm's replied to. Thanks for looking.

Bump. Still for sale. Someone make an offer. Really need it gone.

very nice i have someone close to u. i would like a phone number if anyway possible so we can talk alittle more. ur price is too low. u should ask more definately. 9134067315. thats my number

Still for sale? Sent you a PM. I'm close by here in Georgia and can make a trip this weekend.

Curious, can a regular hatch be installed on to it as a direct swap? Is that paint single stage or bc/cc?

I can't believe I didn't buy this car. I was *that close* but my wife was opposed and a friend of mine who also happens to be a stock broker convinced me to put my money in the market. You can guess how that's going.

Any interest in a custom grand prix GTP? check out the pics and we'll talk if you are interested .....http://s144.photobucket.com/albums/r187/wright3796/

Thanks for the interest. It's still for sale, AFAIK the paint is a single stage and its really starting to show. It's the worst part about the car, looks decent when cleaned up but it could really use new paint to be amazing.

You can install a regular hatch on it no mods required but really the question is why would you? there's so few notchbacks left...

If anyone wants to come take a look at it let me know. It has sadly been sitting here not being driven much other than once a week to keep everything working.

Can't say I'm too sad I haven't sold the car yet because I do love it, but times are tough.

LOL changed your mind on the GTP yet?????
