WTB 350 5.0L 1987-1991 Firebird Formula
I found the car I was looking for, I picked up a 86' Trans Am. that runs perfect and the interior is the best condition ive seen so far with no replacements. The body has rust but I know how to fix it so It was no biggie and Im repainting the whole car myself.
So thank you for the replay but Ive found what I was looking for.

I may have what you are looking for!
Currently I have a 1990 formula firebird with t-top, I have been working on "rigging" her for drag racing, and she handles drifting very well. The interior color is blue-gray, and the exterior color is yellow (not my choice I bought her like that.) I have listed everything I have done to her down below, and I am asking 15,000 OBO. I am also willing to trade for a car that is good on gas, and/or a kawasaki ninja 500.
First off, she was given the name K.I.T.T for a reason; she does have a mind of her own and likes to show off (this is not a joke)
In GOOD condition, but will NOT pass emissions without a new intake manifold (The reason is because does not have an egr valve, and the manifold will not support one)
NEW:
- High flow radiator
- Water pump
- Rear diff. gasket
- headers (manifold gaskets)
- Performance tires (street legal drag/ they are wide and like to grab the road-yes
she is a road hog unless properly controlled; my favorite saying with her is “the
yellow line is MINE!”)
- High flow catalytic converter
- exhaust, and chrome pipes
- Spark plugs, and wires
- Brakes
~New headlight conversion kit~ (Pilot WI-HL11; blue, green, or red outer-glow
rings, your choice of color-has blue right now) I also have the original factory
headlights that still work.
- Battery
- Starter (and heat shield)
- Transmission hoses
- Radiator hoses
- Radiator overflow tank
- Thermostat and gasket
- Automatic Choke
~I have a new throttle kit that can be installed and will go with the car if
requested~
- Suspension kit (dropped her 4 to 6 inches with a slight down-grade toward the
front/ she was being rigged to drag)
- Rear-view mirror
Working:
- Headlight motors
- Power windows (power side mirrors)
- Rear hatch release (button located on center of dash above radio)
- AM/FM radio/CD player
- 12-volt cigarette lighter (have a two-way splitter to hook up radar detector/
anything else; it will go with the car if requested)
- $400 fiber optics under glow kit/ 7 different colors and mixtures of colors/ 7 to 10
different “blinking” settings (missing one bar) will also go with the car
- Sound system (includes 1000 W amp and new interior speakers all the way
around)
- Full size spare tire (not a donut)
- Thermostat controls (heater, defrost, A/C all working)
~ALL lights work~ (blinkers, headlights, tail lights, hazards)
Runs and sounds like a beast/ 10 sec. car!
- 305 V8 carb. (edelbrock 4 barrel)
- 4 speed automatic tranny (OD)
- 80,000 miles on a rebuilt tranny and motor (6 years old)
- All fluids have been changed on a regular basses
~There is no body damage, or rust/ Factory body (The wing on the back has a small crack, but if you look on Hawks, you will find the wing that I was going to put on her, it’s like the factory one, but sits higher with a new tail light assembly for the middle light)
Things she needs:
- Tranny kick-down cable (it is fraying and will need to be replaced)
- Radiator fan (The assembly/mounting bracket has been tweaked and needs to be
replaced, I was going to put a duel-fan in it ~just to give you an idea of what you
can do~)
- The Throttle cable is in good condition but I bought a new one to go ahead and
switch it out; only because I was fixing her up, but it’s not a necessity.
- Complete interior kit (this is also not a necessity, but can be done when you have
the money)
I have dumped OVER 10,000.00 into this car and I am fed-up with all the stuff I need to do to it to get it to pass emissions. She is my baby, and a spoiled car!
