This car has been sitting in my driveway for 10 years now with the hopes of maybe making it look nice again someday, but as you can see that never happened. Now I just want it GONE. The engine ran well when it was being used despite having over 200k miles on it. with in the past 10 years I've turned it on a few times a year and it stil sounds on. Recently, the alternator went along with the battery so i haven't had it on in about a year. Rust damage isn't too bad. interior is shot, ripped front seats and water damage in the back seats because the weatherstrips need to be replaced. the center console needs to be replaced, no headliner and the tailgate doesn't open. The exhaust was consumed with rust and fell apart, but i have a new, never used, still in the box magnaflow exhaust i can sell for $500. driver's side fender has a medium dent and pass. side has a small one. I'm asking $500, or a reasonable offer. car must be towed.

Before you junk it, if you do, would you be willing to pull out the shifter handle (if it looks decent) the sun visors if they aren't dry rotted or ripped or stained, and the plastic screws and side pieces in the trunk?

I'd buy them from you.

I'd love the entire car, but wouldn't be able to make it to Jersey for at least 2 or 3 weekends.

I will take the flashlight too if it works, mine's from a Camaro, which is fine except it says Camaro on it and it's a T/A

I'm actually looking for a blue and silver t-top Trans Am, but you're way too far from me.

Put it on ebay, somebody will buy it.

platanoman31

Yea I'll take pictures of it and post them for u so u can see what condition that stuff is in. To tow it would be another 500

platanoman31

Yes I still have the whole car. Give me a call at 201 458 2803. I will be leaving on vacation on the 14th til the 22. Call me as soon as possible or you can leave your contact information and availability and I can contact you and tell you more about the car

platanoman31

still for sale

Awesome-X

Someone buy this car my god, the price is as low as it'll get and its in decent shape and STILL no one will buy it??

This is why all these cars get scrapped.

_87TA_

I'm in jersey and willing to buy as whole for $400 but gona have to wait on money for a few weeks.
Is batt and alt still dead? If so I have perf batt and alt from my 87 I can swap in... willing to buy but like I said gotta wait on money, if its alright.

_87TA_

Also... why would it HAVE to be towed? B/c of the batt and alt? Or is there something else?

platanoman31

it has to be towed because the batt is dead and the alternator is bad. i think the batt is dead because of the alt, but im not 100% sure. Also, if you look at the pictures, the muffler is dragging because it rusted through

platanoman31

i still have the original radio too

platanoman31

still available, don't want to scrap it

DIRTY JERZY

Parting out?

platanoman31

no, whole car

Dredd

Interested, though my next trip to NJ may be a bit, nothing else besides the battery and alternator keeping the car from running?

platanoman31

that is correct. i still dont think you can drive it away though because as you can see in the pictures the muffler is dragging

platanoman31

i didn't want to replace the battery and the alternator and then have to scrap it

DIRTY JERZY

Car with 2xx,xxx miles sat outside 10 years will need more then just power to drive.
Think dry rot, think brake lines, think tires, think 85 trans am airborn hits bridge

just tow it for all of our safty

platanoman31

i agree. if you live in NJ it wont be too costly

Dredd

I'm down in NC, but I have family in PA and NJ (Kearny/North Arlington area). Was hoping to be able to just drive it to one of them before going to town on it. Realize it's prolly a stretch though, even getting up there

Good luck man, if I was still rocking out in PA I would prolly be all over this.

platanoman31

i hear ya, it really is a great car. i would keep it but i have another one so there's no point in throwing money at this one

i can't believe the people on this board. someone has a dirt cheap car and says need it gone by X day or it's scrap. then everyone cries about the guy scrapping the car, but no one steps up to buy the damn thing. this has happened here multiple times just in the past couple weeks.
good luck with the sale.

platanoman31

I know! I really don't want to do this. Its my last option. I need the parking space for tenants that moved in. I've been giving them my parking spot and parking on my lawn because I thought someone would take it. I also already another 87t/a so there isn't much need for this one. I think the price is more then cheap

NYbowtiefan

Is this thing still available? I'm an hour north of Albany, NY but would be willing to haul it back on a tow dolly if possible. PM me if it's still available.
