very nice looking car, where is the ls1 that was in the car? how much are you asking for it? But, I have to tell you that I am really looking for a car that is near stock but I will consider all options. What color and material is the interior?
Yea that one is very nice, Ive seen it on autotrader.com. But its a hard top and a little to far away, Ive never seen a gta with that spoiler thing on the rear window though, its something different I guess.
i have an 1989 gta red in color. tan leather interior, 140 dash. everything you want. its pretty warn tho and needs resto. it has 135k original miles and still runs strong, everything on it is stock. complete car tho cept radio. im asking $2500 moto_0107.jpg
Do you have any more pictures you can email me of the interior/enigne bay/exterior of the car? Is it a 5.7L car? Where are you located? Do you have the origional GTA rims? Email me you phone number and info with pics and Ill get back to.
Thanx

Nice looking car, Im really looking for a GTA but I have considered a formula in the same color, but I think you are too far away, you are in Virginia right? How much are you looking to get for it?
Im sure youve seen this one...Everything you want except the analog gauges. Pricey but not unreasonable--it looks like this car could be collector quality. Location is good for you too. If it were me I would go take a serious look. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/cto/1016198827.html
Here's another one which isnt really advertised (yet). No T-Tops but for this price you could have someone install them...$2600. Shipping the car from WA to WI would cost about $700. Adding T-Tops $1500. So basically for under $5k. http://cascadecrew.org/phpBB2/viewto...5253&highlight=
Yeah, I geuss you could say I'm picky. I just wont settle for anything less then exactly what my old GTA was as far as color combo and options, I dont mind doing some work to make it in the condition I want but it must have the factory options and colors.
If I may make a suggestion or two regarding your auto searches for "exact" matches. GTA`s arent the easiest car to come by, hence matching prolly anything but a high production 5.0 TBI car will take along time. Interior and exterior colors can be changed very inexpensively when compared to buying a $10,000 used car. Think $500 paint job, and a Year-One catalog for a nice change-of-color project.
I do feel your pain, my first was a near perfect white 89 Formula t-top with the cool red and black low striping. They can be found occasionally but are around $7k dollars in decent shape under 100k miles.

I know it's not exactly what you're looking for but it's 100% original
1986 PONTIAC TRANS-AM
59k original miles, currently PA Classic Title, all original, no aftermarket add-ons, original exhaust (needs replacement), 305 CI with tune port injection, 4 speed automatic, 4 wheel disk brakes, fully loaded, T- tops with storage cover, fairly new tires, garage kept w/cover, current PA inspection, never used as daily driver, white with grey interior, woman owned. This car was and still only used on nice weather days, car shows and cruise nights. Asking $7,500 OBO.
Guys
This car is a friend of mine and she likes to see it go to a good home also she wants use of her garage back. The owner is a 50 year old woman.
prickly- I thought about rebuilding a 305 car into what I want but that would end up being more work and more time to find the parts and to change the color the right way would be quite a bit more then 500 to paint the interiors metal/body and engine bay, plus I would rather have a car that has the original options and colors, I am still tossing around that option though. Thanks
71gs3504sp- Thanks but 7500 is more then I would want to spend on a car that isnt exactly what Im lookin for, good look with your friends sale though, it sounds like a nice car.
Try this to aid in your search. It will let you search ALL craigs lists across the country for just what you want. seem them all the time... Not in black darn it
Thanks for posting that site, Ive never seen it before, that sure beats going into each individual area. I found one that im interested in thats not too far away so we will see if that works out,
Thanks again,
Your old GTA is sitting safe and sound in my storage facility in TX. She likes the warmer weather. Guess you decided you couldn't live without her huh?
