Car is a 1990 Trans Am, ws6 package, lb9 factory 5 speed car, 3.08 posi drum rear, ttops, power windows and mirrors.

Picked this rare find up off some dude who had gotten it as a project a year ago, he could never get it to run right though. I figured for $500 I would atleast give it a shot given how rare a 5 speed tpi car seems to be to come by, an even more uncommon 1990 car none the less.

First weekend home with it I start out on the basics, check engine light, loose connections, etc and I take a shot in the dark and double check the firing order. I had to double check it as it seemed too simple what I had found, sure enough, cylinders 3 and 5 were mixed up. Switched them back, took the car out and it runs very strong.

Needs a repaint very bad (its worse than pics make it seem) and the interior is semi rough and missing pieces. Overall its exactly what I wanted, a 5 speed project.

 

looks like a good eal for 500bux. How is the rust situation?

 

SCORE!!!!

 

Rust free. Colorado is very good to cars as far as that goes, no road salt and low precip, snow doesnt even stick around for more than a day or two in the metro area.

 

That's an awesome deal!

 

great score!

 

It definitely needs some work but it's a steal for $500. Good luck with it!!!
