WTB - 89-92 firebird,ta,gta good body no drivetrain

Looking for what's in the title.
I need a rolling chassis with a good body. Chicagoland would be best. Color is not too much of an issue.
No engine or trans would be best.

My 88 Formula is rotted out and I need a new car to transplant the heart into.

Re: WTB - 89-92 firebird,ta,gta good body no drivetrain

I would consider letting this car go as a roller.. which it currently is, for $1700.. It is a low mile body with newer paint. odometer has 94,000 miles I believe. I was going to chop this car up and make a "prostock drag car, but it's too damn clean to mess with. It has ZEEEERO rust and belonged to my uncle since 1988.. It's an 86 TA. was originally a 305 electronic q-jet motor. My uncle sold it in 2000 and I later, found it for sale with no motor. Previous owner repainted the car.. It was originally red with silver Ground effects. Interior is ok.. I had planned to gut it anyways. has power trunk pulldown which still works. Radio and heating wiring and ducts, etc have been removed. Still have a bunch of the stuff. The car comes with the factory wheels in great shape and excellent tires with little use. Unless you don't want them, I can use them. Drop me a line at swimmselectronics@hotmail.com if interested. Car is located in N. Syracuse, NY.

Thanks!!

Swimster - Thanks anyway but you're a bit far. The car does look solid though.

daturbosix - I take it then engine and trans is stil in the car? Do you have pics? Interested in letting it go without the engine and trans? I need something for my 355 TPI and 700.

i would only sell it less engine and trans. the car has never made it out of the garage. everything is new. its really isnt for sale, but would consider it. i mean what is your price range, because if it isnt worth it to me, then obviously im not going to be sold.

If it really isn't for sale then I guess you won't sell. I was looking to spend around $1000 possibly 1500.

Re: WTB - 89-92 firebird,ta,gta good body no drivetrain

i could get you an 85-89 hard top bird for like 600

solid no rust and in primer
no engine or trans
last had an old school 327 chevy in it, recently

im about 2.5 hours south of chicago on i-55 exit 123

i dont have a trailer but ive been in chicago alot lately, harlem and independence areas mainly, near the tower too

want pics and vin code ?

going to be hard to find exactly what you want when here in IL only 30% of the vehicles left- according to the DMV records in springfield- are 95 and older.
most everything in this state has rotted out and has been hauled to the shredders



good luck

Re: WTB - 89-92 firebird,ta,gta good body no drivetrain

I have a '89 firebird T-top car. No rearend under it now but I have one that can go with it. No rust, needs a little body work, a few dents. Was originally TB 305 and 700R4. I'd like $250 for it. I'm in North Central Arkansas, Mountain Home.
