WTB: ANY rust free Firebird/TA. Pittsburgh

Im looking for a nice clean rust free firebird, trans am, formula, GTA, etc etc in or near Pittsburgh. But, as always, theres a few catches.

-No convertibles
-No salvage titles
-No structurally damaged cars
-NO major rust. minimal surface rust but no more. please no rotted floors.
-No show cars. Under $3,000 please.
-No 91-92 body style cars.

Heres some cars that i'd be particularly interested in:

-Any blown up, roller, or V6 cars since they are cheaper and could still be in good condition body wise.
-any TA's

The car will be used as the basis for a weekend warrior project, this is why i need a solid bodied/framed car. I am fairly incapable when it comes to fixing body damage, and rust is not somthing i want to have to even think about. I'm looking for somthing under $3,000 because i have no interest spending big money on a rare or show car that is just gonna be built up.

Contact me at LMSkyliner@gmail.com if you have somthing that may fit the bill.
