    1987 Trans Am 5 speed TPI

    Asking $1200, with all the extra parts.

    I bought this car with intentions of restoring it, then found an 86 that had an engine fire, decided to go in a different direction. I could strip it to rebuild the other one, but I just can't bring myself to kill this car.

    Using it as a DD right now, car starts first time, every time. 305 runs strong, tranny shifts well. It does chirp a little going into 5th now and then, syncro going bad, maybe?

    Car does have a fair amount of rust, nothing that cant be fixed. And it comes with most of the parts to do the fixing! Includes 2 doors, 2 front fenders, a new set of seats, and a new hatch, plus some other little stuff.

    Car has a digital dash, that about half works, needs some work there. But it is perfectly drivable the way it is, the speedo is just a little off, and the DIC doesnt work. According to the rims, its a WS6, not sure how to verify that. Tires were new 800 miles ago, the exhaust was redone 6 months ago. Engine is clean.

    So, somebody buy this monster, and help finance the rise of my crispy chicken!

    Forgot to add: I need a slew of parts for the toasty T/A I'm working on, so would be willing to work a cash/part trade for this as well. I need a hood, an engine harness, t-top headliner, passenger door, a ton of misc underhood components, a carb, a distributor, an alternator, and a set of wheels and tires.

    So make an offer!
