$4200 Price, not sure link will show up.

1988 Firebird Trans Am GTA. Runs perect. garage stored, sunday driver. the good.
new fuel pump, spark plugs. just put in.
just passed emissions *****
New upholstery (Brown cloth) head liner and carped. looks like new.

custom 3' exhaust with chrome tips sounds great. Bran NEW silver headers (flo tech ) in box still. will come with vehicle

tires have 80% life left.

chrome cold air intake.

everything works (head lights, inside lights ect)

no dents. Just passed emissions no problems.

fast fun vehicle.

THE BAD___

the trunk button wont work from the inside, must use key.

the paint on the rear wing needs clear coat. front bumper has small cips from rocks and road abuse over the years. looks good still though.


THIS IS A GREAT 1ST CAR, OR WEEKEND CAR SHOW VEHICLE. 115,xxx miles on it, always taken care of.

She looks gorgeous for the age and being a GTA I'd try to lower it to possibly 3,800 and of not settle for 4,000 even

That cloth on the seats is WAY darker than stock...or at least that's how it looks in the pics.

Those are awful pics

I'd call & ask, if its a 350 its worth it. looks to be auto & hardtop always neat. You don't see many '88s here that are still original, this one like to just have an aftermarket air intake

Re: Is this GTA worth this money?

Agreed. I think it seems like it's worth the money with what little info we have to go on. At that price you can replace the nasty seat upholstery, center console lid and air intake and still have a nice car for $5k.
