Looks like a diamond in the rough.

Is that garage the car is sitting in near a golf course?

I see Potential....nice find. What year is it? Im about to pick up a 88 gta as a project that has some front end damage so looks like we may be in the same boat. Do you have any interior pictures? Does it have a digital dash?

It's an '87 model, had a 350/auto. Car is stripped, no interior but for now I'm taking the interior out of my bent up Firebird to put in it but will end up with 4th gen dark grey or ebony seats. Car color is changing from the Russlet Metallic to Gunmetal Grey. Front of the car has never been hit, one reason I bought it.

Motor is going to be a '95 LT1/T56 combo which is already in the Firebird.

Nope, I just live in the country away from everyone
