It has a 350 5.7, and only 35000 miles. No accidents. $8500
Check out the pics, see what u think. Might take awhile to load.

Hey thanks guys! This car is gonna get pampered. All ready i drive it alot smoother, safer, and slower than my 93 Grand Prix. Just need a car cover now. Never driven in the snow, and never will as long as i have it..
I dont know what else to say, just that i love this car, and i usually always give a "thumbs up" to other F-body owners on the road now. It feels great exchanging that.
If u guys want some other pics, different angles, under the car, night time pictures, go ahead and i'll get some if u want.
P.S. The stock cold air induction, i know where it ends and has the box with the filter in it, but whats up with the other box directly in front of the thottle body, whats the point of that?

Nice car!
I'm jealous you got to it before me! I've always loved red GTAs, and that one is a keeper. Nice low mile third gens are getting hard to find anymore. Well, now that I think of it, nice third gens are hard to find period.
Congrats on the purchase. What a great car!

Thanks again guys! Best of luck to u guys finding your GTA. I eventually found mine at Autotrader believe it or not. I mean this is months and months of just searching. And ill tell u there were several Trans Ams i came across i wanted. At first i wanted LS1 Trans AMs, but they were to much $$$, and plus to many people have those anyways, whats the point u know.
So then about 2 months ago i finally decided to look into 3rd gen Trans Ams, and i came across quite a few. Some were to far, some to many miles, and some just had to many mods on them, and well, when u try and convince your dad that a 400+HP car is OK, and that it will be alright, well that wouldnt work.
So then i decided, scew it, i;ll get a stock one. Will give me the chance to work on it myself, learn things, and will probably be in alot better condition than some other modified Trans Ams that get abused and go racing everyday, u know. Well then of course came my car, and i went crazy when i saw it, it was only like an hour away, and u know the details on the car, and thats the one i got!
Anyways i;m tired
Thanks again guys.
MetalliCamaroRS get that black one man!
I FLY UH-1 you'll find one. Hard to find one? Not really. Hard to find one in good condition? Ya. Keep looking, when the times right, it will all work out man.

I'd say that airbox is to do with the tunning of the inlet system. must flow the air better than just having a bent pipe/hose.
We dont get many US cars in the UK so when I saw my camaro it blew my mind. It is in good condition but not as good as yours.

Nice ride man! Good price too. I was looking for red and the digital dash. I bought mine from e-bay (1988 GTA black, Analog gauges). I bid 7200, it didn't meet reserve. The seller said reserve was 11k. I wanted to spend 8k max since it wasn't the color I really wanted. Well two weeks later seller accepted offer so I got myself a GTA with 21,000 miles! I was gonna ad headers and a cam, but if you look at sig. it snowballed. After mods are done I will have her reconditioned and post some pics. That is a really sweet GTA, good luck with her. Excellent choice!:rockon:
