96 Firebird Formula /W 98-02 body panels..LT1,6 speed T-tops with extras

[6spdsybol]

What I am selling is my 96 Firebird Formula with the LT1 6 speed T-top car. I dont care for the 93-97 look so I started to swap out the body panels to give it the 98-02 Firebird look. The factory wheels have new tires on them with less than one mile on them due to I put it in storage right after I had them installed. The body panels are somewhat bolted on but all the fitment of them is not complete and will need to be finished. Headlights have been wired up and do work. Along with the body there are a few dings here and there but the biggest is right behind the pass door and will need to be finished. The floorboards are solid and I dont see any rust anywhere on the car. When I got the car it did not run and the list of items that I had worked on are as follows...New GM Opti-spark, new water pump with radiator hoses, MSD plug wires. throttle position sensor, low oil sensor. spark module and then it fired however would not accept coolant so off came the heads and sent them to the machine shop where they were completely redone and had new head gaskets with a new intake gasket. I am sure I am forgetting some of the work I had done to it but it was not cheap. This car does run and drive right now and the only thing I know needs replaced is the Coolant sensor because it says low coolant on the dash and is throwing the service enging soon light due to malfunction. I also had a new windshield put in it due to the other one was broke and something hit the dash putting a gouge in it however I have that covered as well because I have a replacement dash and dash pad ( and the pad is like next to impossible to find anymore) that go with it. the turn signal lever is not working as well and just like the dash I have a replacement entire steering column that goes with the car for you to use as parts. Although it is driveable and I have driven the car I would suggest having it trailered home until all the work on the car has been done. I have many pictures of the car if you would like to see more or something else. The interior is used and the seats do show some ware but the worse part is the drivers rear seat bottom has had some damage to it almost like something hot was placed on it and melted some of the leather. If you have any questions you can either text me,call me or email me for more pics...419-236-1767... the price for the car is $2800.00 or best offer,,, not looking for any trades at this time sorry,,,,,milage on the car is right at 139,000 but dont knock or smoke...thanks Jeff

items that go with the car are

Longtube Stainless headers
Flowmaster exhaust system
Dash and dash pad
Steering column
LT1 intake
Aluminum LT1 cylinder heads
98-02 center console

[firebird_1995]

Wish I wasn't neck deep in my build. Ive always wanted a 98-02 bodied lt1

[Fastbird]

Not to be a d*ck, but the SES light wouldn't be on due to the coolant level sensor being bad.

[SMok3 Em A11]

I think this one would be better parted out. You would definitely make some more dollars that way.

Agree. But mabe its because Im a little bias.

[Badbird_96]

Not that I don't agree but I know my wife doesn't lol

[6spdsybol]

Hey Badbird_96 if you are interested I may be able to trailer it partial way to you to save some road time,,and to help you out I would knock a couple hundred off to help you out in gas...I could let it go for 2500.00 or 2400.00,,,,any lower and I may as well keep it with all the money I have invested in it

[Badbird_96]

That would be awesome. She thanked you so I'm guessing she has seen this but hasn't asked me about it yet. I will text her in a sec

[Badbird_96]

Well she wants it and says I can do the t56 swap into my car. Score lol. I will get in touch with the bank over the next couple of days and pm you what happens about it.

Btw as a bonus most of its the right color already just needs the red painted to match

[6spdsybol]

sounds fair to me however just remember this is currently for sale and I am not holding the car so its first come first serve..I have had slim interest in it so you are safe for now.. but that can all change quickly so if you need to go to the bank I would not wait to long. I am not sure if you are the one that sent me a text last night but I got one from someone. Do you have a car trailer?? And if everything works out for you I could meet you somewhere in the middle of Kentucky. You have my number on the original post so call or text if you want.

[Badbird_96]

I missed your number and that's fine I was just letting ya know im looking into it lol. Im going to try to get in touch with the bank today but I'm working 7-12s which makes it a little difficult and for that reason I wouldn't expect you to hold it regardless. If I can get it awesome if someone else does then that's great as well in the end you selling the car is the important part lol.

Edit - oh and it wasn't me that text and yeah I have access to a trailer.

[6spdsybol]

Not a problem...if you can get the money and want it you can send me a small down payment ...something like $100. to my paypal acount that way there is a comitment to the purchase and then we can set up a delivery time and place...its sitting on the trailer so its not in my way and you can get it when you have time ...if a down payment has been made i will remove the add and let everyone know its spoken for.....however if someone does get it before you go to the bank i will let you know.

[Badbird_96]

Thanks man I'm about to call now and see if I can pull some strings

[Badbird_96]

Well no go for me. Have to go put in a loan app and honestly I don't have the time. I'm working 7-12s 220 miles from home. If its still available by Thanksgiving I will be going home for a few days and can apply then. I will keep an eye on this thread until then.

I would get the whole car repainted.... new paint... old paint.... doesn't match.

EDIT: Didn't read rest of the thread..

Lol its all good. If its done properly and blended you can't tell

True but what happens when the old paint takes a crap? Might as well do it right the first time IMO.

Paint the miss matched colors wet sand and re clear the whole car problem solved!!lol

[HAND HERPES]

It's just advice lol, you can do what ever you want xD

[Ashley]

I'd paint it to just get me through if I bought it.... and then come spring time... I'd repaint the whole car..

and OP glws if I don't buy it soon.

Lol seems like a waste of money to do it twice?

[Ashley]

Lol seems like a waste of money to do it twice?

or I can not do it at all and repaint it at spring. I'd have no problem at all driving it with different colors for a time period.

[popo8]

I know its not abnormal for topics to go OFF TOPIC, but how about we not butcher the OP's sales thread with any specific "opinion" over and over and over again.

If the vehicle gets painted, or spotted or whatever, that is up to the buyer... and as for this thread, it should really be SELLER, and BUYER or PROSPECTIVE BUYER interaction.

Thank you.

[Badbird_96]

It all depends on the condition of the paint. Honestly i would have a cheapy match job done and when I had time disassemble the car and do the engine bay and jambs etc. Besides Brandon why haven't you shown interest in this car? Its a m6 lt1 for cheap.
