Want to get back in the 3rd gen groove!!

I have dearly missed my 92 z28 so I decided to get back in the 3rd gen groove. I know, I already posted an ad in the classifieds looking for one but I thought this is "history related" by trying to get back into the 82-92 f-body mold again.

I am looking for any 3rd gen v-8 fbody in decent shape. I cannot spend the high bucks as I did in with my previous z but I am a looking for a decent looking v-8 3rd gen.

I am willing to look at all vehicles within 4 hours of Austin, Texas. I might even consider a higher priced one outside of Texas if the price is right. I do not fool around or waste anybody's time. I am serious!!!

I have always had camaros but a pontiac trans am/formula might entice me. I just want to try the other side of the f-body.

My email is mlduarte@earthlink.net

Thanks guys and spread the word!!!

I saw a beautiful 87-90 Formula 350 last week.

I'm in Ohio, though.


Haven't seen the car since.

However, I did see a 92 Firebird on the same lot, it was yellow. I'm presuming it's the "Jamaica Yellow" .

How rare was that color, and was it availavle on Firebirds? This was a Bird with the gfx. It wasn't a T/A

There's a 92 L98 B4C NY State Police car up here with brand new paint. Last I knew he wanted $5,500 for it. Nice car for the money. Kind of far to travel, but nice just the same.

Manny,

There has been a thirdgen 91-92 vintage ( or at least it looks that way) blue RS with ttops. Has a Z28 Grill and chrome or high polish 91-92 rims. It is on the corner of Parmer Lane and Anderson Mill. It has been out there for a few weeks now.


Also seen a nice 88 IROC Hardtop Gray next to Atlantis Transmission off of 183. I dunno if it is for sale or not but nonetheless a really nice looking car.
