87 Formula Clean or Trade for an 86 to 90 Iroc

I would consider trading this for an 86 - 90 Iroc in similar condition. Thanks

I am Putting my 87 Formula up for sale. It had been sitting in storage for basically 8 years due to some legal trouble from the previous owner. His Brother kept it and drove it enough to keep the liquids flowing. When I purchased it the car had 92,500 miles on it and I put 2k on it driving it home from Seattle. Made the trip without a hitch. It had a new paint job of decent quality but no stickers and no rust or rot. It was in pretty good shape (all original and unmolested) but needed a few items updated to make it a dependable driver again. I have been working on this the past few months to what you see now. It starts and runs flawlessly with no drips on the floor and everything works correctly from the headlights to the cruise control. I will list what I have done to it since bringing it home.

Replaced Items
1. Alternator (old one still worked but replaced it anyway)

2. AC Compressor (the bearing went out in the original so I replaced it and converted it to R-134, It blows ice cold and works perfectly)

3. Shocks (it had the original ones still on it so I put KYB GR2's on it)

4. Battery (self explanatory it was old and needed replaced)

5. Exhaust (installed a new catalytic converter and Flow master series 80 exhaust.)

6. Wheels (the originals were tired looking so I bought another set and cleaned them up including new center and lug nut caps.)

7. Center console (the original was cracked so i replaced it as well as installing new power window switches.)

8. Factory Stickers (It had no Stickers on it so i bought the original set from Classic industries and put them on.)

9. Headlight motor ( the driver's side headlight motor was tired so I replaced it and put new headlights in both sides.)

10. installed new Hood and rear hatch shocks.

11. Stereo (replaced the old stereo with a new Kenwood KRC-345 which includes an iPod connection and keeps your iPod charged while it plays) it also has a sub in the trunk.
12. New starter & solenoid (Solenoid went out so I replaced both.)
13. Radiator Professionally Flushed and cleaned including a thermostat and upper radiator hose.
14. Transmission Fluid & Filter replaced.
15. I had the engine professionally Carbon cleaned down at Able Auto when I had the radiator Done
16. Replaced Belts (Gates)

Options

It has Power windows, T-Tops, Keyless Entry, Power Locks, Cloth Interior, 2 additional 12v Outlets, Power hatch, Cruise, Tilt Wheel. It is wired for a Garmin so you can find your way home.

This is a 23 year old car but it's not showing it. It sits and drives correct, all gauges work, the rear hatch motor works, all interior lights work, you can plug a code reader into it and it will still give the computer codes ( it currently has none to read). The T-Tops do not leak unless you run it through a car wash.

This car is sold as is, There is no warranty written or implied.
I would need $6,000 to let it go. If your interested let me know.
