I'd like to buy a third-gen Firebird with T-tops. I'd prefer a 305 or 350, but will consider any engine. It must have no significant mechanical problems and be reliable and daily-drivable. It doesn't have to be perfect, but I'd like for it to look nice from ten feet away. I'd like to keep it around $1500, but I'd consider paying more for the right car. I'm in southeast Iowa but could travel to pick it up if it's a good deal. Thank you.

 

if your still lookin for a car i have an 86 ttop trans am, no engine ,but has 700r4 ,3.73 rear, all interior, car only has 113kmiles on it,needs some paint, and interior work but im asking $800 obo, it was my project car until i ran outa money and lost my job, i had plans to drop a 350 but with work into the engine, and exhaust. im in new jersey but can deliver for $ cause like i said no engine so it cant be drove home has to be trailerd. pm me if interested

 

Thanks but no thanks; I'm looking for a daily driver, not a project.

 

If you are still in the market for a firebird, I am trying to sale mine. I have used it as a daily driver for years now and have been working on making her a drag car, unfortunately, I am giving up. I have listed everything about her below, and if you would like photos, please call or e-mail me.


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!

My number: 602-885-4957
My e-mail: nyny_kitty@yahoo.com

I am asking 15,000 obo, and will also trade her for a small car that is good on gas, and a kawasaki ninja 500

 

Did you even read the original post?
Unless of course you meant you're selling it for 1.5k

 

If you are still looking for one, check this one out on craigslist. The guy wants to trade it to me for my quad I have up. http://chicago.craigslist.org/sox/cto/1711935806.html It is an 1987 t top blue with a 305 and a five speed. Fifth gear is out on it for some reason, the guy said a c clip popped off but hes been driving it for four years like that. The leak was fixed with a new gasket but the craigslist post hasnt been updated. It runs great but only has a few inches of ground clearence because of the cherry bomb exhaust setup. Floor pans are a little rusty and there is a small rust spot on the rear fender. Other than that its in great shape I was told. Hit me up and ill accept the offer. I would take 1200 bucks for it since thats how much im asking for my quad.

Im in northwester Illinois so im not that far away from you.
