88-90 GTA W/ L98 T-Tops and Digital Dash *ONGOING SEARCH*

While I'm not looking at this very moment, in the near future I may be in the market for an 88-90 GTA with an L98 350, T-Tops and a Digital Dash. Red or black preferred, with either Beechwood or Black interior.

Currently have a recently repainted 88 GTA hardtop that is nearly fully restored and original but, those extra options are what I'm really looking for, so I'd be open to a trade or partial trade as well.

Just throwing this out there so that in the future if you have one and decide you want to part with it, you might bookmark this thread and when you remember it, maybe PM me with an offer.

Happy racing!

Re: 88-90 GTA W/ L98 T-Tops and Digital Dash *ONGOING SEARCH*

Just an FYI. The factory quit installing the digital dash in the GTA in very early 88. So if digital dash is required, your searching is going to be either 87 or ealy 88 cars.
If you require the L98 and ttops I think an early 88 car is your only option. I don't think you could ores L98 with ttops in 87.
So with that said: there is a car equipped like you're hunting but it's a gunmetal gray one on Facebook in one if the red gen groups.

Thanks for the tip. I thought I remember reading somewhere that the digital dash was still around as an option up until '90. Moreover, I just remembered that T-top GTAs did not have L98s until '89, so I'm chasing a unicorn here.

I guess I could go for a 305 T-top with the digital dash and swap in the 350.

Digital dash was available '86-88 for ALL Trans Am's. And available only in '87/88 for the GTA package.


And YOU ARE chasing a unicorn car. Would have to be a '87/88 canadian car to get the BIG options you want Digital/350/T-tops. Unless you find a aftermarket T-top car, but then you have other problems with that lol

1989 was a STRONG year for 350/T-tops combo, But the digital dash option was NO longer available.
