Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

Saw this beauty behind a Penske truck while we were stuck in traffic in Atlanta 8/31 (made it down to Cocoa Beach just in time for the SpaceX rocket explosion, by the way). It's nice enough I halfway suspect it belongs to someone here. Wasn't able to get a shot of the license plate...

Nope, no way. I do not believe you. There is no way that is the 5. You must have photoshopped all the cars out of the picture. I don't think I've ever been on the five and it not look like a moving parking lot.

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

Saw this little 'bird at Goodwill. Had an 86-90 front bumper but appears to have older taillights?



And this 1991-92 V6 'bird at the Cars n coffee. Other than my friend Ernie Massey's 1982 Z-28 and my TPI Sierra, the third gen representation was very much lacking.

Hey, that's my 91 Firebird! Gosh, wish I would have put the new speaker grilles in before the event... Oh well, they will be in next time. And yes, we need more Third Gens at Car and Coffee Austin!!

Nice to see such a stunning V6 car! Not sure if I will be back to the Austin CnC but will be around to some other shows in the area.

Well, on the hi-res photo I have I can make a decent guess at the number... as well as what appears to be cobwebs hanging over the rear tail light. I know you're in the area and now without a thirdgen, so if you're interested I can send you the photo.

I wish. I need to wait a few years as I dont have a place to store her. I would be wanting a black GTA again or TA or formula or iroc (black and red favorite!) or a 15 anniv TA. in that order if I could find a rough TTA and paint her black I would consider that. sacrilege I know!

@IMissMy86TA
Hope whoever bought your car is a car lover and won't screw it up.That Grand Torino quote "don't chop-top the roof like one of those beaners, don't paint any idiotic flames on it like some white trash hillbilly, and don't put a big, gay spoiler on the rear end like you see on all the other zipperheads' cars. It just looks like hell. " would fit for your car.


Also I'm pretty sure there were 2 black TTA that were used as testing cars.I remember a interview with the guy who worked on the TTA and he said they had a black one .I had the damn interview favorited on youtube but its gone for some reason.

Yeah the guy knew what it was and was going to keep the miles low. the only change is he purchased a new set of black crosslace rims cause he liked that look better but would keep the originals in perfect shape. was going to just show it. I also have a letter from him stating if he ever sells it my son has first right of refusal which I thought was nice.

I plan to one day get a stock GTA or TA with some miles but in excellent shape for a cruiser we can enjoy Maybe even modded but stock in appearance.

Seen this IROC around town a few times. I tried counting 3rd Gens in my area last Summer and I seen like 13.
And this Lightning McQueen Edition Firebird has been around a long time.
This guy does kids Birthday parties and apparently the inside is set up with video game screens.

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

Saw this in a Walmart parking lot in Marshfield, Wisconsin yesterday. Thinking it's an '88. Great looking car and appeared to be in great shape. I always thought this color scheme was the best for a GTA.

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

Found this 92 25th anniversary RS for sale near the bessemer airport.









187k miles on the odometer. Majorly in need of a paintjob but otherwise it looks "alright". Seats are stained all over but suprisingly don't look that bad otherwise. Automatic car. License plate says 09 so I'm guessing it hasn't been on the road much since then.

Sign says $3100.

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

Nice save - a power washing would do wonders for that car!

How was it underneath?

Re: Parking Lot Paparazzi

Yup that's my 84. It looks like hell but it only has 70k miles on it. Some rust on the inner rockers and hood but other than that it's clean. Trying to get the title fixed then it will be my dd. Cleaned it a little bit, there's actually nice paint underneath. I'll make a build thread when the time comes.
