But it's not a Thunderbird.:D

Can anyone guess??
:flame:














A 3rd Gen Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am.

It needs some work, but can beat the price ..... $0.00.

I'll post pics when I get some. For now i'll give you a teaser I found on Google:

This looks like my car twin, just in better condition.

Free is always a good thing :) . 

My dad has a white 84 Trans Am with T-tops and a 305; it handles really well around mountain roads....not that I would know or anything....:evilgrin: .

Anyways, those are really fun cars to drive.  Have fun fixing it up and driving it!  :D

You know, when I was 14-15 I wanted one of those in the worst way. Most of the ones that were in my price range were beat pretty badly. I still like them a lot and plan on getting one sometime in the future. Do post some pics. :D

I have an 82 Trans Am..  I would love to have that car running again.
 
Of the many different ground effects that came factory.  Those in that picture are my favorite.

There's an '88 GTA around here for sale in perfect condition with less than 90K on it.  The guy wants $3500 for it.

For every 10,000 camaros and 1000 corvettes, i can see one of these....

i already know where is the only firebird like these in the town, is a blue convertible....

These are ultra rare here, the laws strictly banned the pontiac firebird for import (it was considered a sport car), but you can import a chevy camaro.....stupid laws....

I almost bought one of those before I got my Cougar, but they were usually out of my price range or too beat up.  Took a 5 speed 350 car for a drive and realized fitting inside everyday would also be a bit of a problem (I'm 6'8").  I probably still would have bought it, but couldn't justify the price for the condition of the car.

91-92 Trans Am GTA, not bad at all.

You get to play with all 800 buttons on the steering wheel.

Well I dont think it's a full GTA

GTA usually came equipped (from what I read) with the 5.7L. I think it only has a 305.

Actually it has an airbag, I dont think there any buttons on the steering wheel except maybe the horn, unless that's integrated into the airbag cover.

Hopefully i'll find out more very soon.
