Been sitting for a bit and is showing it, but it's better than my IROC. So, all good parts getting swapped over, and selling IROC (probably).

Re: My 5th 3rd Gen. 88GTA digital in red/grey.

I'll take a couple more pictures tomorrow; it's sitting a couple blocks from my house until I can get it started or tow it home. I used to live in the condos where it's kept and I've been eyeballing it everyday on my way to work every day for a while to see if it had moved. It ran a couple years back, but has a charging system issue currently which I'm attributing to bad connections. Everything seems to work good with the dash and the interior is in decent shape. The exterior looks clean, but is starting to rust in the usual places around the wheel openings. NO stress cracking on the roof and the door hinges are better than most I've messed with. Pretty excited to start playing with it. Likely going to pull the whole powertrain since I have lots of rebuilt/upgraded parts to throw at it. Time will tell.

Turns out I'll only be the second onwer of this car. The spoiler is trash of course, and the right rear got hit my a lawn mower. Car is 100% bone stock. Looking forward to getting it home and sorting through it.

Re: My 5th 3rd Gen. 88GTA digital in red/grey.

still looks like in great condition....i had a similar issue with charging system (car wouldnt start every 3-4 days) and happend to be a fog light switch always on!!! I would check ALL switches and also our cars hatches also seem to be the culprit. Cant exactly remember why though. Nonetheless, sweet ride and goood luck!!!
