might need another firebird
I was told by my mechanic that becuase of the extensive damage done to it by someone's hurried rust "repair" job, my car might not be fixable, so I might need to start looking for another car...
can be any any kind of firebird, (base model, trans am or formula) engine & trans are not important but it must have a solid frame & body, prefferably T-tops.
The plan is to use parts from my car to rebuild the new one, so I won't need the fenders, hood, ground effects or bumpers, I also wouldn''t need any of the interior aside from the dashbord & gauge panel.
for as cheap as possible & as close as possible to Reading Michigan
yes I know I sound like an idiot

Re: might need another firebird
I thought he sold it?, either way it has that wierd exhaust system in it & it's setup for headers, plus I kind of pissed him off a while back ago so I doubt he'd sell it to me...
this is only in case my car can't be repaired, I'm hoping my car is fixable but if it isn't, it'd be nice to have a back up car ready to go...

Re: might need another firebird
I may be selling my 1991 firebird..no int. except dash panel, steering column. ttop car, comes with rear hatch, no hood doors or fenders...unless you want the fenders or hood...they are completely rust free, as is the body except in one spot under the carpet...a very easy fix. The car was from georgia all its life, the rust stop came from leaky ttops. The rest of the car is VERY clean. Car comes with stock 305 w/ fuel injection, no transmission, basically this is the body you are looking for...also its comes with craiger GT chrome wheels with ok tread on the tires. Car has good rear end, good suspension
The only issue would be that I am located in Buffalo, NY. I am willing to meet halfway, somewhere in Ohio. I am asking $400 for it, plus $100 to help cover fuel for delivery.
I can post pics if interested.
