1988 Pontiac Trans Am/GTA $1800 FIRM !!!SOLD!!!

I'm selling my 88 GTA with 87,9XX original miles. The car needs paint, a new headliner, and the motor rebuilt. The dash pad just recently cracked in the center. I'm the second owner and immediately after buying the car, I changed all fluids and filters including the transmission and rear diff.

I'm selling the car as-is for $1800 FIRM. The car is in my driveway in Hillsborough, NJ 08844. The radiator, fans, balancer pulley and serp belt are off the car so it will need to be towed. It sounds like the motor has a spun bearing, but it still runs.

I installed the following parts and they have less than 2,000 miles on them:
4 245/50/R16 BFG G-force Super Sport A/S tires
Koni Yellow shocks/struts
Eibach Pro-kit
Spohn spherical strut mounts
UMI double adjustable panhard bar
Newer battery (Feb 2011) with custom tie-down for auto-x

The original owner installed a 3000rpm stall, 3.70 rear gears and had a shift-kit put in. He mentioned that he spent $3000 "upgrading" the transmission, but I have never taken it apart so I can't verify anything more than a shift-kit. I have receipts for all the parts and work that I have done to the car for over $2400. The engine still starts and the interior is in great shape aside from the headliner and dash pad.

Call me for the fastest response on any questions and to see the car. I have no more space for this car and it needs to go fast.

Please don't make me part this car out. It is completely rust free and in great shape with many go-fast parts.

I forgot to mention in the first post that the car also has front LCA bushings also with only about 2,000 miles on them.


Here's a shot of the adjustable panhard and new spring

If it were in TX I would already have it.
To bad having it shipped would cost so much.
