83 Firebird ?T/A?
This popped up on my local CL
https://omaha.craigslist.org/cto/d/n...096875416.html
Looks like an okay Firebird. Rust is scary. Obviously been painted. Claims it's a T/A but the badges look wrong. Newer 406 is interesting.
Not mine, thought some of ya'll might be interested.

It's a Trans Am. Wrong wheels, but it's a TA. If it were a little closer to me, I might be interested in at least checking it out. My first car was a black/gold 1983 Trans Am

How can you tell it’s a Trans Am by what is posted in the ad? I don’t see a VIN anywhere in the ad to confirm.

I believe this was listed on Facebook marketplace too. It came across my feed a while ago and looks like it would make a fun project.
