Hey guys, Ive been searching for my car for a long time, wanted a camaro but purchased a 1989 firebird trans am tonight. Great body, ttops, new crate 305, but needs a new fuel pump. Got it for 800 bucks..Its a little dirty, sorry for crappy pictures.

Crate 305? Never heard of that before...

Otherwise it looks like you've got a good car there. I really like the blue/silver paint. And that fuel pump would have gone out sooner or later anyway, at least it saved you a few bucks this way.

Is it a carbed motor?

Looks pretty cool, I like the color scheme. Not a huge fan of Rally IIs on thirdgens, but that's just a personal preference.

Congrats on the purchase...much better than a Camaro, anyway.

It's hard to tell fom those pics, but it looks like a pretty nice car for $800, especially if it has a newer motor in it. But, you should look into some new wheels (16" GTA maybe?), those things are killing it.
