Im scoping out any 85-90 Trans AMs...Body is the only important thing....

Hey all. Just seeing whats out there that Im not seeing by paging through threads.

Im looking for an 85-90 Trans AM. I would like t-tops... Can be auto or stick. The main thing is...Im looking for a good body. Straight, clean, no major accidents, with decent paint. I dont care if it has a v8 or v6 or whatever. Running gear doesnt matter at all. The interior doesnt even matter. I just want a good, clean, straight, solid body. The paint part isnt THAT important. But it would be nice to have something presentable until I can re-paint it if needed...

Im in PA, 19320... So obviously the closer the better. Please provide some pics if you respond. You can post em or send them to jgindin20@hotmail.com .

If the price is good, Ill have it towed to me... whatever.

Let me know!!! Thanks!

Justin

Re: Im scoping out any 85-90 Trans AMs...Body is the only important thing....

WOW... That is a gorgeous car! I would absolutely LOVE to buy that from you. Couple things that would stop me... One, I plan on putting all of my drive train into it. And that car just seems too nice to mess with. Two, well its just a tad over what im looking to spend.

If it had a blown motor...that car would be perfect. Its just so nice Ide hate taking it apart. haha I wouldnt even want to swap my interior...yours is GORGEOUS!

Basically...I was thinkin about stripping whatever car I get down to nothing but a shell. Swapping my interior, motor, trans, wiring, dash, EVERYTHING over to it. Which is why I dont care if it runs or whatever..just that the body is nice.

Thanks for the link though...if the insurance company gives me more than I think Im going to get....we might be talking.

J.

Actually...Im gonna shoot you a quick PM.

Re: Im scoping out any 85-90 Trans AMs...Body is the only important thing....

This only moved down on thread...haha. But Im bumping it anyway. After removing some more parts, Im even more serious about getting another car. I got about 3200 from the insurance company. I can probably turn that into 4000 really easy, and my cap is probably 5000...but I might have to wait for an extra pay check to go to 5k.

Let me know!!!
